Fresh from the success of their previous album "Three Dollar Bill Yall$", in 1999 Limp Bizkit recorded and released a second album, dissatisfied with being associated with their discoverers Korn and 80s covers.
"Significant Other" represents a perfect compromise between the hardness of their debut and the catchiness of their less successful subsequent efforts. Besides typically nu metal/rap rock tracks like the singles "Nookie" and "Break Stuff", and then "Just Like This", "I'm Broke", "9 Teen 90 Nine", "Trust?", and "Show Me What You Got", the album can also boast external collaborations like "Nobody Like You", "No Sex", and the rap of "N 2 Gether Now", as well as departures from the norm like "Re-arranged". The album, along with similar efforts of the time, represents the postmodern version of successful previous musical crossings, initially just a few fleeting singles. The lyrics are centered on the ups and downs, both romantic and otherwise, of the controversial singer Fred Durst, now almost forgotten.
The band achieved definitive popularity with the subsequent album "Chocolate Starfish" and then, due to a string of internal conflicts, virtually disappeared from circulation.
