Boogie 2nite is the debut album by the English duo Booty Luv, released on 17 September 2007 in the United Kingdom by Hed Kandi. The album went straight onto the charts at number eleven, and has since sold over 70,000 copies in the UK, being certified silver by the BPI. It was possible to pre-order signed copies of the album directly from the Ministry of Sound website.
The album contains Booty Luv's four hit singles (two top ten, two top twenty), five cover versions, and seven original tracks co-written by the two members themselves. In addition, there is an interactive component on the album which takes you to a website where you enter your details and can then watch the videos for the singles and a six-minute making-of special on the "Don't Mess with My Man" single.
On 5 August 2008 Boogie 2nite was released in the United States, containing the original twelve tracks, an exclusive bonus remix of "Shine" and a new colour scheme for the cover art (blue and green). They are currently being managed and promoted by their manager and biggest fan, Kris Toffer.
