My 90s Playlist is a new podcast from Sony Music Entertainment that explores some of the decade’s most iconic songs and ground-breaking artists.
The show’s first episode features a deep dive into the history of hit R&B group TLC and the making of their chart-topping single “No Scrubs.”
Hosted by music and pop culture enthusiasts Tracy Clayton and Akoto Ofori-Atta and produced by Multitude, My 90s Playlist explores the not-so-distant past and reveals never-before-heard details about nine of the 90’s biggest hits. Other songs featured in the series are from Mariah Carey, Outkast, Ricky Martin, Natalie Imbruglia, Celine Dion, Ginuwine, A Tribe Called Quest, and Backstreet Boys.
Each week, Clayton and Ofori-Atta will test their music knowledge and break down the passion we all have for the hits of the 90s: what made our favourite songs so popular and why we are so nostalgic for them?
Clayton and Ofori-Atta said: “So much of what’s happening in the pop culture and music landscape today is influenced by the music of the 90s.
“This show is all about revisiting and celebrating the incredible hits that have shaped our culture, and we hope that each episode brings people joy, makes them laugh, and teaches them something new about these iconic hits and the people who created them.”
Episode 1: “No Scrubs” by TLC is available from today (13 October), with future episodes released each Tuesday and available on Apple, Spotify and all podcast providers.
