Baha Men

Baha Men is the name of a pop group that plays an updated style of Bahamanian folk music called junkanoo. The group's debut, Junkanoo, was released in 1979 (see 1979 in music), and was very traditional in its sound. They soon began aiming their music at a more mainstream audience, however, and finally succeeded with 2000's (see 2000 in music) remake of Who Let the Dogs Out? originally composed by Anslem Douglas; the titular track won a Grammy Award. Their latest album is Beach Baby (2002; see 2002 in music).
