"Flava" is a song by English-Australian singer-songwriter Peter Andre, released by Melodian and Mushroom as the fifth single from Andre's second studio album, Natural (1996). The song includes a rap by American rapper Cee and spent one week at number one on the UK Singles Chart in September 1996, becoming Andre's first number-one single in the UK. "Flava" also reached top 10 in Denmark, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, and the Wallonia region of Belgium.

Critical reception

Kevin Courtney from Irish Times commented, "The man with the six pack stomach and the penchant for nursery rhyme reggae tunes returns with a rapping sort of tune in the vein of Backstreet Boys. This one is not quite as irritating as "Mysterious Girl", but the thought of more video close ups of Mr Andre's abs is just too horrible to contemplate." British magazine Music Week gave the song four out of five, writing, "Matching "Mysterious Girl" is going to be tough, but "Flava" has a warm R&B sound, a catchy chorus and enough class to become another winner."
