2644686, I'm Reminded By How High On Prozac 90s R&B Was,,,,,

It was SO dark and manic depressive lol,,,,,,

But its scary how Missy, Ginuwine and even Playa's debuts sound SOOOOOO much like everything was taken from DeVante's blackboard. I mean, yeah, the production from their debuts were slick in comparison, but the quirkiness and the dark moods(which is Timbaland's forte if you think about it) came straight from DeVante. However, I'm also reminded by HOW much fan DeVante is of Prince and Roger Troutman, not just because of the occasional talkbox singing, but because of the way he programmed his drums, then again, the influence Roger had on 90s R&B was unavoidable.

I would love it if those songs got resurrected in remastered condition.
