The new century saw Craig David usher in the sounds of 2 Step and British garage. Aaliyah broke new ground with "Try Again", a single produced by Timbaland. Eminem released the powerful single "Stan". Madonna further explored electronic dance music with her 'Music' album. Napster was being attacked and by year's end was taking steps towards providing legal downloads. Bomfunk MCs took drum & bass to the top of the charts around the world.
