Holla newbies! We are in the 2000’s now!
We did the 80’s, we did the 90’s, now it’s time to tackle the best music of the 2000’s! The 2000’s was a big turning point in the music industry. With the rise of portable music players (ie mp3 players and the iPod classic) and digital storefronts to download songs, listening to music became easier and more accessible than ever. Because of that, we got a boom in the quantity and quality of songs that came out in this decade from essentially every genre which is what made today’s episode particularly difficult (but not impossible!). So join Tuong La and your “Baller Homeskillets” Axandre Lemours, Colleen Wang, and Victoria Luloff as they bring back “fetch” while getting “crunk” and make a Top 5 2000’s songs list!

Ground Rules
- Music has to have been released in the 2000’s (Duh!)
- Songs that were released in any other decade and popularized in the 2000’s don’t count
- Music can be from any genre in the 2000’s
- Covers of songs from a different decade are a bit dicey. We will possibly count it depending on how iconic the cover is.
- Some songs definitely came out in the 2000’s but they aren’t “2000’s-ass songs” which could affect them being on this list. (ie they feel like they belong in a different decade). Therefore, songs that invoke the decade will get points over others.
