I love all those artists except After 7, Mint condition, Silk. I've never heard of those three.

This is really new jack swing, but how about Ginuwines earliest work from like 1995-96

Placing 1988-1994 as "old school" makes me feel rather old. To me "old school" R&B would be more like Anita Baker, Patti LaBelle, the O'Jays, and Luther Vandross. Possibly even older stuff than that. Still maybe the following will fit what you mean.
