Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water continues the band's authorship convention, with Fred Durst writing the lyrics and the music credited to Borland, Rivers, Otto, Lethal and Durst. Terry Date produced the record with the band, while Swizz Beatz contributed production on the hip-hop-leaning material. The guest roster is dense, including Xzibit, DMX, Method Man and Redman, plus Scott Weiland and Run of Run-DMC. The album spawned the band's biggest hits in 'Rollin'' and 'My Way,' and its first-week sales of over a million copies made it one of the defining nu-metal releases of its era.
