21 years ago today, Bow Wow released his hit single “Let Me Hold You” featuring Omarion.
The song was released in 2005 as the lead single from Bow Wow’s album Wanted. Produced by Jermaine Dupri, the track quickly became one of the biggest R&B and hip-hop collaborations of the mid-2000s.
“Let Me Hold You” peaked at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and received heavy rotation on radio and music video channels.
The record helped solidify Bow Wow’s transition from a young teen rapper into a mainstream hitmaker, while Omarion was also rising as a solo R&B star after his success with B2K.
