"Wannabe" is the debut hit single by the British girl group the Spice Girls. Written by the group members with Matt Rowe and Richard Stannardduring the group's first professional songwriting
session, it was produced by Rowe and Stannard for the group's debut album Spice, released in November 1996. The song was written and recorded very quickly; the result was considered lacklustre by their label, and was sent to be mixed by Dave Way. The group was not pleased with the result, and the recording was mixed again, this time by Mark "Spike" Stent.
"Wannabe" is an uptempo dance-pop song that incorporates a mix of hip hop and rap. The lyrics, which address the value of female friendship over the heterosexual bond, became an iconic symbol of female empowerment and the most emblematic song of the group's Girl Powerphilosophy.[2] Despite receiving mixed reviews from music critics, the song won for Best British-Written Single at the 1997 Ivor Novello Awardsand for Best Single at the 1997 BRIT Awards.
