(ala Otis Redding, Marvin Gaye, etc)

Yep and while the music was cool I can't see No Scrubs as having a lasting influential effect on the music of future generations. That's probably why I dropped Salt N Pepa from my radar as well. They were cool too but Whatta Man and Let's Talk About Sex don't make me think of Hall of Fame.
