"Superstylin'" is a song by English electronic duo Groove Armada, released as the band's first single on 13 August 2001, from the album Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub). Vocals were performed by Groove Armada's long-time vocalist MC M.A.D. (Mike Daniels). Groove Armada credited Daniels for the cross-genre sound of the track, saying it was house music with influences of dancehall, reggae, and dub,[2] with a speed garage bassline.[3]
"Superstylin'" reached number 12 in the United Kingdom, number 37 in Italy, and the top 50 in Australia, Flanders, Ireland, and New Zealand. In the United States, the song reached number 40 on the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart and was nominated for a Grammy for Best Dance Recording in 2003.[4]
The video starts with Groove Armada in their recording studio, as it later cuts to that scene was on a portable-like device. The video also features two men who drag a large boombox to where the song is being performed. The band's logo appears on an arcade machine at the end of the video.
