2000s Canadian R&B/Hip-Hop hits

[Janhova's Witness]

This is for all my Canadian ***I'M RACIST***s on Pulse, so... @haunted.

All of these pop/R&B and hip-hop songs were Canadian hits in the 00s. I tried to keep it down to acts who never saw much international success, so no Kardinal, Tamia, Drake, etc. I let the Nelly feature slide. ^___^ For those who are familiar, which are yr favs and which ones do you never wanna hear again? To those who are not familiar: get right wit it.

"Shook" - Shawn Desman
"Bad Boy" - Keshia Chante
"Breathe" - Swollen Members ft. Nelly Furtado
"Skyline" - Choclair
"Be Easy" - Massari
"The Naughty Song" - Cory Lee
"Don't Call Me Baby" - Kreesha Turner
"Yalla Habibi" - Karl Wolf ft. Rime

Getting these songs together was such a trip down memory lane, omg. These were all big in my hood/school when they came out. To be honest, I still like them all.

[allow that]

I'll go with "Shook." Missing that turn of the century sound.

I'd say my favorite Canadian hip hop song (until Drake's debut) was "Sunday Morning" by k-os. Still jam to that one now and then.

K-os is my favorite overall is a better and real version Will Iam but on also like the joints by Massari, Karl Wolfe and Kreesha Turner

Yes but I live in Minnesota so I'm practically half-Canadian.

Oh I forgot about K-os. I was never into him, oops.

Ugh. I hate Shawn Desman. Hate Hate Hate. (as far as music artists go).
The Yalla Habibi song kinda bugs me too.

I always liked the Kreesha Turner song but I think the Naughty Song wins here. It was a bar jam for me for a while.
