Imajin's song No Doubt centers around a man who isn't afraid to express his desire for a woman. The chorus repeatedly asks if a woman is interested in the singer (Baby are you checking for me/You want to step to me/No doubt). He goes on to suggest that they don't necessarily have to get physical, but they can just "slam and kick it" if it feels right. The sentiment is repeated in the second verse when the singer suggests that the woman has been acting as though she wants him but is holding back. Ultimately, he just wants an open line of communication (call me if you feel me) to make sure that the two of them are on the same page.

Jamal was really out here singing like a grown man π His runs were incredible. I surely hope that he's still involved in music.
@jaycesongbyrd
I wish to say that when I was a kid like his voice was so mature.

β@@quietsoul60Jamal was 17 at the time Talib was 16 and Olamidade was 15.John was 15 or 16 i believe. They are all in their early 40s now
@kiwthebeauty
I can remember this like it was yesterday. My teen yearsβ¦I loved them so much. I was in middle school and I used to play this on my VHS over and over from what I recorded off of BET!! I was obsessed especially with Olamide! If anyone didnβt know they were pre-B2K! They were on their way to that level but I have no idea what happened. Look how talented they were! This was a beautiful group with so much potential. I will always love them.
