The Sugababes are* a UK girl group act of considerable success.

In October of 2003, they** released an album called Three. Many people consider it their greatest work ever.***

The eleventh track of the album is called “Nasty Ghetto.” It is both nasty (in terms of beats) and ghetto (in terms of lyrics).

The song was penned by the very talented Linda Perry (“What You Waiting For?”; “Beautiful”).

The song is complimented by an illicit, gritty swagger and a sexy, groaning delivery that can only lead to winding, grinding, and general sassy sauntering.

It can also be easily stuck on repeat.

“Nasty Ghetto” continues to be a very good song to this day.

Let us appreciate that fact here and now.

*Were (2001-2007).
**Meaning the members at the time: Heidi Range, Mutya Buena, and Keisha Buchanan.
***It probably is.
