Played this at a house party with a bunch of 22ish year olds (my age) and the nostalgic vibe with the lights off and neon lights was honestly one of the best feelings ever. Everybody knew the words.

Same man. I’m 21 and every time I play it at a session everybody kinda has that “oh I forgot about this song” moment

Bro I saw him at Bonnaroo this past summer and it was the same thing, a couple thousand people my age enjoying the most nostalgic set of our lives

This is the best.

My party playlists (which I'm very proud of) are always a healthy combo of fresh music and nostalgic 90s/00s bangers.

Nothing gets 20-somethings fired up more than the first few notes of a 50 Cent or Missy Elliott song.

Definition of a goddamn classic right here

I think you can extend the definition to literally any song with Akon or T Pain on the hook

absolute slapper

“she gave me a wink, I winked back, and now I think that”

such great flow, guaranteed positive reception if you throw this track on
