Yo, those songs are not nearly old school enough. Ginuwine's "In Those Jeans" is from like... 3 years ago.

When I think old school, I think of Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Donny Hathaway, Aretha Franklin, Smokey Robinson, the O'Jays, James Brown, all the 70s R&B folks

Yo, I didn't realize how "explicit" "Poison" is until I listened to it for the first time in FOREVER last year.

And "Night Time (Is the Right Time)" is one of the best songs ever written, no lie.

Y'all remember Lost Boyz "Renee" and "Jeeps, Lex Coups, Bimaz, and Benz?" Those were the jams back when I was in the third grade. Damn, I guess that means half of y'all are too young to remember them.
