Thing is, Pharrell was working with Teddy Riley not too long after this (could've been around the same time), and Teddy & Babyface were contemporaries during New Jack. That's why Pharrell is on another level compared to most other modern producers...

But this track ("It's No Crime", from the Tender Lover album) was Babyface's first song to be a crossover hit on the Pop charts (peaking at #7 on the Pop charts in 1989, also being a big hit on the R&B and dance charts)
