The 2001 Triple J Hottest 100, announced in January 2002, was the ninth such countdown of the most popular songs of the year, according to listeners of the Australian radio station Triple J. As in previous years, a CD was released, this time featuring 34 songs (although not the top 34 songs as they were ranked).
When the announcers for the final stretch of the countdown—Adam Spencer and Wil Anderson—got to the number-one track, they first played their own parody track "Matt Hayden", named after the Australian cricketer and set to the tune of "Ms. Jackson" by OutKast.[1] "Ms. Jackson" actually reached the Hottest 100 the next year in 2002 when a cover by The Vines took it to number 30.

- Regurgitator made their sixth consecutive appearance in the Hottest 100, having appeared in every annual countdown since 1995.
- Rage Against the Machine and The Whitlams both made their sixth consecutive appearance, having appeared since 1996.
- Blink-182, Jebediah, The Living End, Something for Kate all made their fifth consecutive appearance, with all bands having appeared since 1997.
- The song "The Drugs Don't Work" by The Verve charted in the countdown for the second time after a cover by Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals featured at No. 22. The original version charted in the same position in 1997. "Renegades of Funk" by Rage Against the Machine charted in the countdown for the second year in a row, having featured in the 2000 Hottest 100 at No. 95.
