London Bridge

Fergie’s “London Bridge” (2006) is a raucous hip-pop track that announced her solo debut with a bang. Full of brassy horn samples and risque double entendres (with “London Bridge” as a playful euphemism), the song’s crunk-influenced beat and Fergie’s attitude made it irresistibly catchy. It quickly climbed to No. 1 on the Hot 100, establishing Fergie as a solo star unafraid to push buttons while making people dance.
