  • %22Get Ur Freak On%22 is a song by American recording artist Missy %22Misdemeanor%22 Elliott. It was written and produced by Elliott and Timbaland for her third studio album Miss E... So Addictive (2001). Based on heavy bhangra elements, a popular music and dance form from the Punjab state of India, the song features a six-note base that is a Punjabi melody played on a tumbi, a stringed Indian instrument.Released as the album's first single in 2001, the track reached number seven on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. Internationally, %22Get Ur Freak On%22 became a top ten success in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, where it became her first solo top ten hit, peaking at number four. A remix of the song featuring Nelly Furtado was a dance club hit during this period, and was used both in the soundtrack and in the background of the movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) starring Angelina Jolie. The song is also heard in The Rundown (2003) starring Dwayne Johnson (remixed with AC/DC's %22Back in Black%22) and The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) starring Steve Carell.In December, the song was listed 14th on Rolling Stone‍‍ '​‍s Best Songs of the Decade ranking, and later at number 466 on their The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time updated list of 2010. In 2002, %22Get Ur Freak On%22 was named the best single released in the year 2001 by The Village Voice‍ '​s Pazz & Jop annual year-end critics' poll. The song also lists at number seven on Pitchfork Media's Top 500 Songs of the 2000s and number 16 on VH1's Greatest Songs of Hip-Hop. In 2011, NME placed it at number 17 on its list %22150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years%22. In April 2014, the song was remixed with The Black Keys' song %22Keep Me%22 for the original soundtrack to Neighbors (2014).On the Billboard magazine issue dated February 21, 2015, %22Get Ur Freak On%22 re-entered at #40, more than a decade after its original chart run. This re-entry was spawned by Missy Elliott's performance at the Super Bowl XLIX halftime show that occurred earlier in the month.
