He has too many classics..So i kinda expected people to have different choices..but cmon some of those lames on sohh made it seem like tp2.com was garbage.

Nah, I never said it was garbage....but it's not his best....it was his most relatable album for hip-hop fans....so that's why it's more loved in some circles. Probably 3rd best for me....but thing is, most people who put it at the top havent been listening to R. Kelly since 92

To me, even 12-play wasn't that great outside of the slow jams. The other 6,7 tracks were up-tempo new jack swing that soudns terrible back then, and now.

The blue album is where it all came together for him. Album had 1 skippable track. The rest were all fire, nothing sounds dated or forced.

Dont get me wrong, TP2 is still a 5-star album...

I def wasnt listening to kells in 92..I was 8. And I agree with you..thats why i can relate to tp2.com a lot more than say, his self titled or his debut album.

I think it might be one of my fav albums in any genre..ever.

I remember back on SOHH..after the whole pissing fiasco.. he got shyttted on so bad on there then he dropped chocolate factory out of nowhere..made us all fans again.

man i guess its an "age" thing. if you werent around when 12 play dropped, then you just wont understand. some of these albums being mentioned as better are flat-out inferior.

12 play takes this. that chit is arguably goat status.

@ the disrespect shown towards the uptempos on there.

"born into the '90s" was the album that had a few questionable uptempos. and i'll take that over some of the albums listed in here.

 

[Still Benefited]

12 Play probably got the best slow jams (which is what R. does best in my opinion). But that album is somewhat ruined by all those uptempo songs thrown in between where R. rapped (with his brother).


The self titled album is consistant, and is more personal with some gospel thrown in there. Chocolate Factory and TP-2.com are consistant as hell as well with some true gems in them.


R. has some of his best work but its way too long, as usual with double albums, he SHOULDA made it a one disc album (and it most likely would've been his best album).


I'm not too much of a fan of U Saved Me/Happy People, Love Letter and Write Me Back. They do got some really nice songs but I want the raunchy, sexual (no homo) and contemporary R. Kelly.


Untitled and Double Up were wasted opportunities, too many attempts to crossover and make hits. But the best songs are brilliant as usual.

12 Play got probaly my top 5 favorite Kells songs on that album,probaly has Kells greatest songs but it ain't matchin the consistency on self titled...overall I do listen to self titled album more,don't skip a thing on it......and I might be one of few people who HATES The R considering its a double disc I skip majority of it....I think that's the first album he didnt write or produce most of the songs,I could be wrong,I like Happy People U Saved Me better but agree all his double disc could've been cut down to 1 to have a classic,a near or perfect classic....And yeah Untitled got sum great songs on it,I swear this shyt right here is probaly Kells best breakup song since I Can't Sleep rmx,at least one of em.

Kells the goat in my book over anybody....him and pac my top 8n they genre,got a song and album I can play no matter my mood and they cover everything...no rnb artist covers the black male/female dynamic like R Kelly has....whether you a good nikka or a dirtbag or a little bit of both he got you

Hands down, 12 Play. "Your Body's Calling", "Bump N Grind", "Seems Like You're Ready", "Sadie">>>>>.

All of his albums before Chocolate Factory are arguably classic. To me 12 Play is his definitive work though.

I'll agree to all this.

I think most people feel like 12 Play is his definitive work, because that is what blew him up. But the self-titled joint is his most quintesential work imo (at least before he became "Pied Piper" R-Uh). If somebody asked "what one album would sum up R,Kelly's style", I would say the self-titled one.

12 play Tp2 Chocoloate Factory. Pretty much his first 4 or 5 for real.

His next joint supposed to be a return to that raunchy. can't wait.

 

[SmooveRascal]

12 Play fasho

My favorite songs are

1. Ignition Remix
2. Taxi Cab
3. Bump N Grind

 

[JC_USN]

I don't even know how it's a question..."R. Kelly" was his best album.

"You Remind Me of Something"
"Downlow"
"Step In My Room"
"Baby, Baby, Baby, Baby, Baby"
"I Can't Sleep"
"Tempo Slow"

INCREDIBLE album.

 

[Real]

man rkelly is one of the greatest r&b artists of all time

but fukking/pissing on a underage girl and videotaping it is too sick- dude is a sick person

regardless sometimes u gotta seperate the musicians personal life n music

r kelly makes great music and i still listen to his albums- not sure which is my fav- i gotta check n get back to u

Quit acting like the girl was 12 or something

BTW my favorite album is "R"
