How you going to have The Dream and don't have Babyface or Raphael Saadiq ?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

How you going to have The Dream and don't have Babyface

I listen to Dream more than Babyface. Somebody gonna left off.

 

[Sonny Corinthos]

I listen to Dream more .

He sounds like somebody is squeezing his balls. At least put Ronald Isley on their to pretend you have some credibility

Bobby Brown got hits thanks to Teddy Riley , but he ain't the pure talent Joe or Tank is

 

[Hahahaha]

I'm a fan of all 3, but they can't do what Bob did on that stage. Nothing really dynamic about Tank ripping his shirt off and standing in place for an hour, every night.

 

[Hahahaha]

Bobby doesn’t have the vocals they have but he’s an entertainer and dancer, they’re not.

I couldn’t do a top 50, would be too hard. Like Silk and Hi Five, you putting them in as a group or their lead solo artists? Most of these groups didn’t have success as solo artists.

 

[steebie j]

I did strictly solo

For groups, I would have to sit and think

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I struggled with the group thing too but K-Ci going on mine.

Damn, I'm really tryna care what you think. I'm trying.

 

[kickvicisous]

I'm good with lists

 

[Hahahaha]

 

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

 

[Hahahaha]

Poison is one song I hope to never hear again in my life. That also goes for This Is How We Do It, DMX's Party Up and Baby Got Back

 

[sooperhooper]

Not exactly rnb but thinking out loud is a perfect song.

 

[wayniac211]

Very underrated album

 

[wayniac211]

Over 20 yrs in the game for Beyoncé

Went straight off the top of my head and could only come up with 13. Also went with who I directly grew up listening to. MJ is considered pop. My mom was an Aaliyah stan but I never cared for her music. I'll just use the Temptations as 2 spots

Your mans Bruno Mars ruined it for me making that non-seasoned version Poison.

I wanted to put Mike on there but other than a few joints here and there he stopped making R&B after Off The Wall.


A full album of Lady In My Life's woulda been crazy.

 

[babyface34]

“Pop” is all-encompassing. Mike was an r&b artist whose r&b songs redefined pop music.
