"Iesha" — Another Bad Creation

Six boys between seven and twelve rapping about a playground crush over a Dallas Austin beat, the 1990 single that made Another Bad Creation the kid act of the New Jack Swing era. Michael Bivins found them, Motown signed them, and it went top ten.

No Diggity

That piano loop, that Bill Withers sample, Dr. Dre's shoulder-brushing opening rap — 'No Diggity' was instant cool in 1996 and has never once stopped being cool since. Blackstreet's smooth-with-an-edge chart-topper is the 90s R&B song everybody still knows every word to.
