 NEW YORK (Yahoo/Launch) - The Baha Men will follow up their multiplatinum 2000 album Who Let The Dogs Out with a new collection, titled Move It Like This, on March 26. The title track and first single from the S-Curve/Capitol Records album will be the featured single in the upcoming film, Big Fat Liar, a comedy starring Frankie Muniz (Malcolm In The Middle) and Amanda Bynes due in theatres February 8. The Bahamas-based Baha Men made pop music history with its catchy single "Who Let The Dogs Out," which became an unofficial sports anthem at nearly every major sporting event in the past two years. The group's drummer Colyn "Mo" Grant explained to LAUNCH, "I think it's one of those songs that was just that good that everybody just played it so much because everybody liked it, so it just got played, and played, and played." After nearly 20 years of recording albums and nonstop touring, in 2000 the band became "overnight sensations," winning a Grammy Award for best dance recording, as well as two Billboard Awards and two Kids Choice Awards. The Baha Men also contributed a song to the animated film Shrek, as well as the theme song for the cartoon television series Stanley. The band was also heard in the film Rugrats In Paris. "It has truly been an amazing couple of years for us and we are so proud to be the ones who finally put the Bahamas on the musical map," said founding member Isiah Taylor. The Baha Men will launch an international tour this year, with U.S. concerts expected to begin in April.
