I Wanna Thank Ya

Angie Stone recorded 'I Wanna Thank Ya' featuring Snoop Dogg for her third album Stone Love, written by Stone, Snoop Dogg, and producer Jazze Pha, who also contributed vocal ad-libs, with additional recording handled by Dave Aron, Yutaka Kawana, Tim Donovan, and Arnold Wolfe. Released as the lead single from Stone Love on May 3, 2004, on J Records, the track became Stone's second number 1 hit on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart through a remix produced by Hex Hector and Mac Quayle, while reaching number 31 on the UK Singles Chart and number 5 on the UK R&B chart, marking her highest UK placement since 'Wish I Didn't Miss You'. The track is remembered as a breezy, disco-inflected highlight of Stone's catalogue, and its Jazze Pha-produced beat was later recycled by the producer for The Notorious B.I.G.'s 2005 posthumous single 'Nasty Girl', extending its influence beyond Stone's own discography.
