"Where My Girls At?" is a song by American girl group 702, released as the first single from their self-titled second studio album (1999) on April 27, 1999. The track was produced by Missy Elliott and Keybeats.[2]

Originally intended to be included on fellow girl group TLC's third studio album, FanMail, the group rejected the song, so 702 recorded it instead. The song has been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and Billboard ranked it at No. 46 on their list of the "100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time".[3]
