I was wondering about the snoop dog song Lodi Dodi from his album Doggystyle, was the music from that song originally done by another artist from the 70's or 80's?

Lodi Dodi was originally performed by Slick Rick (http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:NxgmpJ-Kt8wJ:music.kelkoo.co.uk/b/a/cpc_150701_ps_593790_gs_15811588.html+Lodi+Dodi+sn oop+originally&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=5&client=firefox-a) (lol, really!).
