This was released as a single from 1996's Total. It peaked at #3 at R&B and #13 on the Hot 100. I thought most of their subsequent singles were better than this, but it was a decent debut.

LOVE it. My second favorite single by them behind "Kissin' You".

It's an R&B classic at this point, I love Kima's bridge.

This still goes so hard, the production especially, the sample usage is ace. I juggle between what my favorite single is by them, depends on my mood, but this is up there. Love Pam's adlibs on that second chorus.

One of my all time favorite 90s rap/R&B tracks. Heard this song a lot on WGCI when I was younger. It was also played on B96 and defunct 106 Jams as far as my market was concerned. I always thought it was Notorious BIG featuring Total rather than the other way around as the former's verse starts off the song before the latter took over for the rest. Big Poppa was everywhere on urban and rhythmic radio in the mid 1990s.

This is still my sh*t after 25 years.
Neither of those girls could sing, but I've always preferred Keisha.

Lol Faith Evans did an IG live a couple weeks ago and said Puffy used to rush her on the vocals.. she would want to go back and fix them and he would push her to just release what she recorded. It sounded like she recorded “Ain’t Nobody” in 5 mins.. he probably did the same with Total.

I really like it. Probably my third fave after "Trippin" and "No One Else".
