The monster hit that gave her career a second wind. Based on the world-famous melody of 'Lambada'. With Pitbull and producer RedOne, she created an unstoppable dance floor banger. "La-la-la-la-la". It's simple, it's grand and it's extremely effective. This song dominated the charts worldwide. Her biggest commercial success.

Released on the eve of the new millennium. This song captured the tension and euphoria of the year 2000 perfectly. The green lasers in the video are burned into everyone's memory. It's a house-oriented track that is euphoric and a bit mystical. The buildup to the climax is fantastic. For many, this is her best and most atmospheric song.

Originally written by Gloria Estefan, but perfect for J.Lo. This is an explosion of salsa, pop and party. The song is played at sports events and parties all over the world. The energy is boundless. The horns section blows you over. It's J.Lo as the ultimate entertainer who gets a stadium moving. Staying still is impossible.

An anthem for independence. J.Lo makes it clear that she doesn't need expensive gifts, but true love. The beat is tight R&B-pop with a very recognizable rhythm. The chorus is powerful and singable. The message and energetic delivery made this one of her biggest hits. The moment in the video where she throws off her jewelry is pop history.

#5

Get Right

Built on a hypnotic saxophone sample from Maceo Parker (via James Brown). The song is repetitive, funky and compelling. The beat is full of horns and percussion. It's a track made for dancing. The video, where she plays different roles in a nightclub, is legendary. A song full of attitude and rhythm.

She fully embraces her Latin roots here. With castanets, flamenco guitars and a rousing rhythm, this is J.Lo at her fiercest. The song is about fate and love. The track radiates energy. Where she also had success with the hip-hop remix of this song, it's precisely this original version that emphasizes her unique position as a Latin pop queen.

#7

If You Had My Love

Her debut single that surprised everyone. Produced by Darkchild (Rodney Jerkins), this is a smooth, stylish R&B track. It sounds silky and refined. It immediately proved that the actress could also sing. The intro with typical digital sounds is pure nostalgia. A timeless mid-tempo classic that laid the foundation for her music career.

#8

Jenny from the Block

THE statement song. Based on a sample of 'Hi-Jack' and with the famous whistle loop. She tries to convince the world that despite fame and money, she is still that girl from The Bronx. "Don't be fooled by the rocks that I got". The lyrics are iconic, as is the video with Ben Affleck. It's old-school hip-hop influence in a shiny pop jacket.

#9

I'm Real (Murder Remix feat. Ja Rule)

The original was a pop song, but this remix became the hit. The collaboration with Ja Rule and the Murder Inc. label defined the sound of the early 2000s: soft R&B mixed with hip-hop. The atmosphere is summery and laid-back. The chemistry between J.Lo and Ja Rule is iconic. It's the ultimate song to cruise through the city with the window down.

A funky, futuristic track from the early 2000s. The guitar riff is catchy and the production is tight. A fun detail is that singer Christina Milian, who co-wrote the song, is clearly heard in the chorus. The song radiates relaxed 'cool'. It's about asking the DJ to play your favorite song. An underrated gem in her discography that has held up well.
