- Quick facts about Throwback Monday's pick:

- The lead single was "Left & Right" (featuring Method Man and Redman, but it was the album's second single, "Untitled (How Does It Feel)" (a tribute to the legendary artist Prince), that became a huge R&B hit buoyed by an innovative yet infamous video featuring a presumably nude and extremely muscular D'Angelo (from his face to his hips) performing the song with no accompaniment or ornamentation.
- The video was nominated for 4 MTV Video Music Awards and currently ranks #44 in VH1's list of the 100 Greatest Videos. He also performed "Be Here" (with Raphael Saadiq) from Saadiq's album Instant Vintage."
