Next single = "Back in the Day" is a 1994 West Coast hip hop single by Ahmad. Released when Ahmad was only 18, the song is a nostalgic remembrance of childhood and young teenage years, from a somewhat jaded adult perspective. "Back in the Day" was Ahmad's only major hit single, making it to #26 on The Billboard Hot 100, #19 on th US R&B chart on the strength of its hook - a sample of the Teddy Pendergrass song "Love TKO" - and Ahmad's quirky vocal style, reminiscent of Fatlip of Pharcyde fame, and #3 on the US rap chart. It was the anchor of his 1995 album, "Ahmad", and is RIAA certified gold.
A remix of "Back in the Day" is featured on the soundtrack to The Wood, a 1999 motion picture.
