‘On The 6’
Sony Music Entertainment
Jennifer Lopez carved out a successful career as a dancer and an actress throughout the mid to late '90s. Her foray into music was considered to be a creative risk, with critics questioning her abilities as both a singer and a songwriter.

But the album shattered expectations, proving to be a commercial success. On the 6 peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard 200, thanks in part to her first single "If You Had My Love". The track quickly soared to the top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remained in the No. 1 spot for five weeks. Other popular songs include fan favourites "Waiting For Tonight" and "Let's Get Loud", as well as "No me Ames" - a Spanish duet with her future husband Marc Anthony.

A cohesive fusion of pop, hip-hop and Latin influences, the LP served as the perfect introduction to one of the industry's premier performers. Lopez has since continued to dominate the charts for the past two decades, recording a catalogue of hits.
10. ‘Get Right’

While this single peaked just outside the top 10 of Billboard's Hot 100, "Get Right" was definitely a huge hit with fans. The dance track features pronounced horns and funk-inspired instrumentation. Serving as the lead single from 2005's Rebirth, it also incorporates all the great R&B and hip-hop production elements listeners have come to expect from JLo.

The song was originally co-written and recorded by Usher during his Confessions era. His version - titled "Ride" - was leaked online and released exclusively for the club circuit.
9. ‘I'm Gonna Be Alright’ ft. Nas (Remix)
Sony Music Entertainment/GIPHY
Lopez co-wrote "I'm Gonna Be Alright" for her second album, J.Lo. The initial rework of the track featured 50 Cent, but Epic Records pushed for the song to be shortened and remixed for radio with a verse from Nas - reportedly sparking a rivalry between the two rappers.

The mid tempo break-up anthem became her sixth single to crack the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100.
6. ‘Love Don't Cost A Thing’
Sony Music Entertainment/GIPHY
"Love Don't Cost A Thing" went on to peak at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 as well, dominating pop radio in various international markets and reaching the top spot here in Canada. The lyrics were rumoured to be inspired her relationship with music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Lopez famously met her second husband - dancer and choreographer Cris Judd - on set of the music video for this signature song.
5. ‘On The Floor’ ft. Pitbull
Universal Music Group/GIPHY
JLo's collaboration with fellow Latin music star Pitbull appeared on her seventh studio album, Love? "On The Floor" serves as a quintessential club banger, incorporating house and techno elements throughout.

Not only did it peak at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, it also reached No. 1 on Billboard's Dance Club chart.
4. ‘All I Have’ ft. LL Cool J
Sony Music Entertainment/GIPHY
It's clear Lopez and LL Cool J have incredible chemistry, propelling this hip-hop break-up ballad to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks back in 2002.

Certainly one of her most well-known hits, JLo named her Las Vegas Residency after the popular track.
2. ‘Ain't It Funny’ ft. Ja Rule & Cadillac Tah (Murder Remix)
Sony Music Entertainment/GIPHY
While Lopez co-wrote this track for her sophomore album, it was rapper Ja Rule's rework that made the song a bonafide smash hit.

Working with singer-songwriter and frequent collaborator Ashanti, his remix went on to top the Billboard Hot 100 for five weeks as well.

Ja Rule and JLo proved to be a match made in heaven, with another one of their collaborations reaching No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Ashanti also assisted in the recording of this remix, providing background vocals as well.

A true hip-hop hit, "I'm Real" showed the world that Lopez could dominate any genre.
