Close, it was '91, and yeah it was his only single, but back in the day that kind of stuff was the shit. Just like today with Eminem, if it's a catchy track people are gonna love it, and since you're speaking from a 2004 perspective, think about this: The first singles for the last 2 Eminem albums ("My Band" and "Just Lose It") were wack as fuck. But people love them because their catchy, even though I wrote better songs as a 4th grader...
