Baha Men Dedicate New Single LET'S GO To Final Four Teams  Image

The Baha Men, known for their mega-hit "Who Let The Dogs Out," are surprising fans with an electrifying new anthem, "Let's Go," dedicated to the teams playing in the Final Four this weekend and the winners who head to Monday's national championship game. The irresistibly upbeat song is available today on SONY Music Entertainment at all major streaming services and digital stores, ready to energize fans with its rousing, sing-a-long chorus.

"'Let's Go' is full of so much energy and spirit," says Baha Men bandleader Isaiah Taylor. "We want to wish all the Final Four teams the best of luck this weekend and are dedicating it to them and everyone else who is gearing up for a big game. Let's Go!"

"Let's Go" is the first in a series of singles being released this year, a collection that showcases the band collaborating with a variety of different writers and producers. The group will be touring the United States, performing at festivals throughout the summer, and are currently the subject of a critically-acclaimed documentary, "Who Let The Dogs Out."

Next year marks the 20th anniversary of "Dogs," which remains popular among all ages to this day. When it was released in 2000, the song immediately rose to the top of the charts throughout the world, propelled by island rhythms, sports stadiums full of chanting fans and one of the catchiest choruses ever written. A popular band in the Bahamas long before "Dogs" became a phenomenon, Rolling Stone Magazine declared, "After 20 years, the Baha Men are an overnight success." Since then, the song has been used in commercials for everything from Apple to the ASPCA, was featured in the new hit television show "Beat Shazam" (hosted by Jamie Foxx) and both Alison Brie and Will Arnett "sang" the song on "Lip Sync Battle" in 2015. Other career highlights for the Baha Men include:

  • Performing on "The Bachelorette" last year and bringing Becca Kufrin up onstage to sing with them.
  • Serving as the house band for "Live with Kelly and Ryan" when the duo brought their show to the Bahamas last February.
  • Recording "Ride With Me," selected for the official FIFA World Cup soundtrack in 2014.
  • Winning a Grammy for Best Dance Recording, a Billboard Music Award for World Music Artist of the Year, a Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Award and more.
  • Appearing in not one, but two episodes of "The Simpsons."
