FRANKEE – F U RIGHT BACK 2003<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s set the scene, it\u2019s 2003 and there\u2019s a track on the radio none of us can get away from. Eamon released his family friendly version of \u2018F U Right Back\u2019 for radio airplay, but ears are pricking up all over the UK at the uncensored version!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What shortly followed was the comeback version by the also unknown Frankee. We still don\u2019t know whether Frankee was actually Eamon\u2019s ex but with lyrics like \u201cF**k all those nights you thought you broke my back, well guess what yo, your sex was whack\u201d, does it really matter?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s 2019 and this R&B jam will still get you in the mood for a night with the girls, but you\u2019ll be likely to leave the Trucker hat and velour hoodie at home.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

MARIAH CAREY – SHAKE IT OFF 2005<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 2005 it had been almost three years without any new music from Mariah Carey. Her album \u2018The Emancipation of Mi Mi\u2019 saw the songstress take a sharp turn from cutesy-named albums such as \u2018Charmbracelet\u2019, \u2018Glitter\u2019 and \u2018Rainbow\u2019 to \u2018Stay the Night\u2019 and \u2018Get Your Number\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Produced by Jermaine Dupri, \u2018Shake it Off\u2019 doesn\u2019t grow in intensity like many of her previous power ballads but merely transports a listener down smooth roads straight into 2000s heaven.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s be honest, who doesn\u2019t know all the words to this track? It\u2019s almost criminal we haven\u2019t listened to it in so long.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

KELIS – BOSSY 2006<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Milkshake is one of those career-defining songs. While the beat could almost be described as alternative, we\u2019ve all heard it so many times that in 2019 it can almost be viewed as satirical.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When you look at Kelis\u2019s discography however, her style and genres are very progressive. Her 2010 \u2018Fleshtone\u2019 album brought House to the masses in a market flooded with Pop and R&B.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bossy is aggressive, flirty and fun all at the same time! Not taking any prisoners, Kelis stomps through the chorus and the music video alike. In a world full of Arianas, be a Kelis!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NSYNC – GIRLFRIEND FT. NELLY<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 2002 Justin Timberlake embarked on an easily failed pilgrimage of making himself a credible solo artist. He left a boy band, cut his hair and became a pretty decent solo artist with his first solo album \u2018Justified\u2019. Realistically he went from strength to strength (well up until about 2008 anyway).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You would be forgiven for thinking that most of Justin Bieber\u2019s singles have been influenced by the smooth beats and vocals on this track, and even though Biebs has opted for Nicki over Nelly on his tracks, Nelly\u2019s verse is a banger.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NELLY FURTADO – TURN OFF THE LIGHT REMIX 2001<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

One track that springs to mind when you think of French-Canadian Nelly Furtado is \u2018I\u2019m like a bird\u2019, however in 2001 shortly after the release of her hugely popular debut single, Furtado released \u2018Turn Off The Light\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A remix featuring Timbaland shortly followed. The dark beats and Timbaland\u2019s particular vocals really set the scene to a 2000s road trip.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DESTINY\u2019S CHILD – GET ON THE BUS 2000<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

In an era of Uber, Lyft and Cabify, getting on a bus is about as dated as Destiny\u2019s Child releasing music as a 4 piece. However we\u2019d love to rescue the \u2018\u2018Get on the Bus\u2019 ? was the final song on the girl band\u2019s second studio album \u201cWriting\u2019s on the Wall\u201d and with other hits such as \u201cBills\u201d, \u201cSay My Name\u201d and \u201cJumpin\u2019 Jumpin\u2019\u201d, this track could easily be forgotten. The production is an outstanding masterpiece.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

MIS-TEEQ WHY 2001<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

With UK, mainstream garage at its peak, the British music industry did what it does best: find four beautiful girls and give it a nice, shiny pop gloss. Not everything is as it seems with Mis-Teeq however. They almost brought a sense of credibility to their competitors what with S Club 7\u2019s \u201cNever Had a Dream come True\u201d being released in the same year.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alesha Dixon\u2019s MC breakdowns can often be the butt of a garage joke, \u201cEN-TUUUR\u201d, but they seem to tread that fine line between comedy and cult legend.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tracks like \u201cOne Night Stand\u201d and \u201cB With Me\u201d were played in clubs and on radio with remixes being released as opposed to the more chilled R&B influenced album versions. \u201cWhy\u201d however, their lesser known debut single, was garage through and through! And we still love it today.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

BIG BROVAZ – FAVOURITE THINGS 2003<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tell us the last time you listened to the radio for over an hour and didn\u2019t hear Ariana Grande – we dare you.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With the release of her \u2018The Sound of Music\u2019 influenced \u20187 Rings\u2019, it\u2019s easy to think she\u2019s an innovative contemporary musician but who remembers when Big Brovaz beat her to the chase in 2003?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two of the members left and became Booty Luv (an unusual band name), but this track is great and still gives us nostalgic chills!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

DIZZEE RASCAL – I LUV U 2003<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

As soon as this track starts it\u2019s clear why Dizzee Rascal won the 2003 Mercury Music Prize for best album. He was the youngest person at 19 years old to do so and the second rapper, after Ms. Dynamite the previous year.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dizzee has released six albums and countless singles since his Debut \u201cI Luv U\u201d but few have the same edge as his first hit.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

LA ROUX – IN FOR THE KILL (SKREAM REMIX) 2009<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

The newest track on this list is by no means one that should be overlooked. As soon as the deep base intro starts the hairs all over your body will stand on end.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

La Roux wasn\u2019t known for this Dub-step style and Skream definitely put their mark on this remix. When you watch this track on YouTube, you\u2019ll be about six tunes deep on the \u2018Suggested Videos\u2019 before you even know it! Is it time for a Dub-step revival we didn\u2019t know we needed? Maybe\u2026 Is it time to book tickets to ON111? Definitely!<\/span><\/p>\n
