Baha Men is the name of a Pop Group that plays a modernized style of Bahamian Folk Music called Junkanoo . The group's debut, '' Junkanoo '', was released in 1992 , and was very traditional in its sound. They soon began aiming their music at a more mainstream Audience , however, and finally succeeded with 2000 's remake of '' Who Let The Dogs Out? '' originally composed by Anslem Douglas ; although they faded back into obscurity soon thereafter. Their most recent Album was '' Holla! '' from 2004 .
Baha Men has also won a Grammy Award in 2000 for Best Dance Recording for " Who Let The Dogs Out? ".
In the same year they won a Billboard Music Award for World Music Artist of the Year and World Music Album of the Year.
In 2002 they won a Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award for Favorite Band and Favorite Song.

The Baha Men were one of the many artists to record a song on the album DisneyMania and two of its four sequels. On the first DisneyMania, they recorded "Hakuna Matata" from The Lion King . On DisneyMania 2 , they recorded the infamous song "It's a Small World" from the Disney park attraction of the Same Name . They were absent from DisneyMania 3 , though they returned for DisneyMania 4 , recording their take on the song "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride" from Lilo And Stitch entitled "Bahaman Roller Coaster Ride." They are not going to be on DisneyMania 5 . One thing to note of them is that they are from the Bahamas , they're of Bahaman decent, despite rumors of their true origins. They formed in The Bahamas .
