Was it 1990 again? Or your cousin's wedding party? No, that was actually New Jack Swing trio Bel Biv Devoe strutting and crooning its way through its hit "Poison" on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night.

Howcome nothing sounds like this anymore? Happy Saturday. Boyz II Men - Motownphilly ABC = Another Bad Creation. Enter "Iesha" - BBD = can you guess? Yea, that's right. Bel Bev Devoe - Poison I'm not sure how anybody could be bummed out [...]
