One of the best RnB remixes of the 1990's. I remember stumbling upon this when I bought the Soul Food soundtrack. So much better than the album version.

Another great remix from Blackstreet. Peep the sample of Steve Miller Band's 'Fly Like an Eagle'.

Another dope remix that incorporate the Steve Miller Band sample. Shai feat. Jay-Z "I Don't Wanna Be Alone'. This is one of my top 3 favorite remixes of the 1990s 🔥

As a feature Jay-Z had his hands all over 90's r&b remixes. Horace Brown feat. Jay-Z 'Things We Do For Love'. I bumped the shit outta this one.

The breath control is just off the charts. RIP Mr. Withers.
it,s been said that Bill repeated that line over and over because he couldnt remember the next line of the song and he kept repeating "iknow"..until it came into his head.....it sounded so good it was kept into the song

Damn I love the R&B and hip hop collabs of the 90's.

Shares the same keys as this southern hip hop gem from Goodie Mob. Strange that when I check whosampled.com there is no link between the two tracks.

Thanks for sharing. When I think of Sam & Dave I think of up tempo but this is a real nice change.

Archie Bell & the Drells with Gamble and Huff were a match made in heaven.

I really dig Mary Wells' voice. And love those two songs you posted. Outside of 'My Guy' I hadn't really heard anything else of hers.
