Pink began her career as an R&B and hip-hop musician. She has complained that because she chose to relinquish creative control to her record producer L.A. Reid , she did not like the type of music she made at this time, or her image, which included bright pink hair. Her first album, Can't Take Me Home , was a modest success, due to the huge pop and rhythmic radio hit singles "There You Go" ( Hot 100 #7 in July of 2000) and "Most Girls" (#4 in November 2000). The album's third single, "You Make Me Sick" was released towards the end of 2000, and also became a smaller pop hit in early 2001 (hit number 33 in February of 2001), thanks in part to its being featured in the movie Save The Last Dance .
