2000 was the year of the timbaland, dark child and dre’s prodigys, and also saw the emergence o a huge latin trend, but other then a disturbing version of shakira – non of that really survived to see 2009. oh, and this classic bit:
Estelle – American Boy
In the R&B Scene hip hop and current pop were melted down together perfectly
Rihanna – S.O.S
A Caribbean trend brought Rihanna (and lumidee) to mainstream mainland. Pon De Replay.
Beyonce – Baby Boy (w Sean Paul)
Very few things are Just in this world – and Beyonce being the biggest pop star in the world right now is one of them.
Beyonce – crazy in love
Her collaboration with Bf/Rap emperor Jay-z
Mary j. Blige – steal away
Mary j. Blige – mjb da mvp
Older, Wiser, and she knows it, Respect.
Alongside bilal, and jaguar wright, two of mjb’s/puffy/aaliyah-timbaland more distant musical children are
Alicia Keys – No One
from her latter album.
Kelis – Trick Me
With a spicier attitude.
N.E.R.D – Truth Or dare (w Kelis n Pusha T)
Pharrel’s crew, that had a massive influence on the mainstrm pop-r&b sound of the decade.
Ultimate cross between rock and urban sounds, “In search Of” is easily one of the best and most defining albums of the decade.
Missy Elliott – One Minute Man
The fattest woman rapper in every sense of the word.
Kanye West – All Falls Down
The biggest mainstream Rap phenomen of the decade – with the amazing “College Dropout” and with countless hits to follow; too bad he became an asshole.
Couple of european tunes worth mentioning
Lady Soverign’s – 9 to 5
clever funny lyrics, remixed to death cool tune.
Seeed – Ding
Germany’s awsome HipHop/dancehall/rap crew, this is taken from a great half english half german album called “Next!”
Streets – Blinded by the lights
rap-pop crossover UK phenomenon mike skinner adding a new sound with honest rapping about girls, drugs and txt msgs. Sort o lily allen with pants.
