Late 90s, Early 2000s music

I'm starting to compile a play list/ guide list for my DJ. I know I have a lot of time but good music is really important to me (it's top three for us along with food and booze).

I'm having an evening reception with a heavily party atmosphere- our guest are 80% friends (so we are all in our 30s and 40s) so the late 90s/ early 2000s is very coming of age for this group.

What rap, hip hop r&b or dance song from this time frame makes you lose your mind and shake your ass with no abandon to?

No country music pls.

    Baby Got Back will get me up in less than 2 seconds. ETA: Sorry, forgot you asked for late 90s. I second "Jump Around" by House Of Pain, but you really can't go wrong with 90's music.

    I wouldn't give your DJ a list of songs to play, I mean def request some of your favorites but they are paid to know your crowd and get the party going... use their talent you are paying them for!!!

    We've got a similar vibe going on with our playlist, but less hip hop because that's not really our crowd. My favorite songs on the list:

    "Follow You Down" -The Gin Blossoms

    "Slide" -GooGoo Dolls

    "Accidentally in Love" -The Counting Crows

    "Odds Are," -Barenaked Ladies (a little later, but still has the same vibe).

    @fururemrsb I like those songs too, but we will probably play that genre (pop/ alt rock from the 90s) during cocktail hour.
