"Back in the Day" is a 1994 West Coast hip hop single by Ahmad. Only 18 at the time the song is a nostalgic remembrance of childhood and young teenage years, from an adultperspective. "Back in the Day" was Ahmad's only major hit single, making it to #26 on The Billboard Hot 100, #19 on the US R&B chart on the strength of its hook - a sample of the Teddy Pendergrass song "Love TKO"—and Ahmad's vocal style. It was the first single of his 1994 self-titled album and was RIAA-certified gold. Shouts out to Billy for this one.
A remix of "Back in the Day" is featured on the soundtrack of The Wood, a 1999 motion picture.
