2. "End of the Road" by Boys II Men represents an updating of the Teen Idol/Boy Band style.  How is this style updated for the time period?  What previous styles are they borrowing from?  Are they influential to any current artists/groups?

3."Nuthin' But a 'G' Thang" by Dr. Dre Featuring SnoopDoggy Dogg is a prime example of West Coast Gangsta Rap from Death Row Records.  How does a song with a Simple Verse form keep the listener engaged?  How does the flow of the lyric lines make the song move? Is it just the lyric content, the rhythmic complexity, or a combination of the two?
