Hollaback Girl was released in 2005 as a single from Gwen Stefani's debut solo album Love. Angel. Music. Baby. Co-written with Pharrell Williams, the track mixed cheerleading chants with hip hop beats and became a number one hit in the United States. Its bananas spelling hook was quoted everywhere, from ringtones to early social media edits, and it has stayed in circulation because the line is instantly recognisable even without the rest of the song. Short clips of the vocal now travel as a standalone reaction on video platforms.
