90s r&b - what are five albums people should have in their collection??

[ABlackMan]

Genuwine bachelor I think whichever one he was in black and grey on cover

 

[NoChillJones]

Did top 10.............the ones that had most impact on my childhood.......

Honorable mention

 

[Black_Panther_JS]

Nope. One In A Million changed the game.

I honestly can’t remember one song from Enter The Dru off the top of my head. Is that the album that had the song Beauty Is Her Name on it? Or something like that?

Beauty
The Love We Had (Stays on My Mind)
One Good Reason
These Are the Times
What Are We Gonna Do
You Are Everything
I’ll Be the One
What Do I Do With the Love
etc...

 

[Black_Panther_JS]

So we just not gonna fukk with Lauryn? She had a TOP 5 90's album IMO

1. Miseducation

2. Enter the Dru

3. 100% Ginuwine

4. R Kelly- R. - Double Disk joint

5. BoyII Men

Maybe

I didn’t know if we consider Lauryn R&B, that album is crazy

 

[TheDarkCloud]

You know that’s a damn lie

Nope. I really had to just pull that album up on Wikipedia to see the tracks. That’s how forgettable that shyt was/is to me. I remember some of the songs now that I’ve seen them.

That album is nowhere close to OIAM. Not even a little. Aaliyah is on a completely different stratosphere. OIAM is iconic. Single handedly changed R&B in the late 90s.

What’s so great about Enter The Dru? It didn’t do nothing but produce four suspect nikkas whose sexuality we still questioning like 20 years later

....

People be sleeping on that Chico! One of the best of the decade! That Donnell Jones goes too.

I swear, Boyz 2 Men don't get enough credit for the work they put in.

When I saw the thread title that album was the first that came to mind.

But the 90's had so much classic shyt it's hard to pinpoint just five. Its also very subjective

but in no particular order

Boyz 2 Men
Jodeci
R. Kelly
Ginuwine
Usher


All held it down for me.

 

[Standing on business]

Beauty
The Love We Had (Stays on My Mind)
One Good Reason
These Are the Times
What Are We Gonna Do
You Are Everything
I’ll Be the One
What Do I Do With the Love
etc...

I'll be the one is the hardest track on there

Lauryn rapped on the album but when you look at her hits they were r&b imo.

ex-factor, nothing even matters, doo wop thing, zion, can't take my eyes, everything is everything.

Ill make love to you- was huge!

 

[Maschine_Man]

Ill make love to you- was huge!

no doubt, but they had hit after hit after hit in the 90's

even the collabs like Hey Lvoer with LL and One Sweet Day with Mariah were huge.

then throw in the end of the road, and just all their own album shyt and it blows my mind that they have just been erased of the music map right now.

Crazy

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Just so I don’t post albums that are already posted because we will all post the exact same albums lol

 

[datnigDASTARDLY]

If this was 80s Don’t Be Cruel would be my #1 probably

 

[Shorty K]

If we're talking soundtracks
