R&B was so much better in the 80's and 90's.
I would say this is the case well up until the mid 2000s probably. And I think that’s because all of those arrows for one actually had vocals, and also had a real influences. A lot of current mainstream singers aren’t even trying to sing, they’re trying to rap. And in turn, the rappers are attempting to sing, but can’t because they are masking their terrible vocals with autotune

Usher would get washed. I been saying, if kellz wasn’t cancelled, for him to do a VZ they’d have to limit him to his music only. No writing and producing for others, otherwise it just wont be fair.


That said, r kelly vs Mary j blige needs to happen


These nikkas just don't know... Kellz washing all these nikkas. Bobby, keith, usher, whoever. Doesn't matter. Ironically like you said, I think Mary would be an even match for him more than anybody

Which is why I specifically said for Kellz to do a vz it would need to be him only using his music/features - no writing and producing for others. His catalog as an artist vs MJB is a fair match

No one else had to restrict themself in a VZ but even with his own catalog he still washes MJB

No he doesn’t.

And no shyt no one else has to restrict themselves, but if people keep throwing out kellz, that’s literally the only way it could work. I’d make this same statement about those wanting Missy, you’d need to handicap her to find a good matchup

I don’t really like the missy busta matchup, people keep mentioning them based on their animated personalities/video style but missy has too much r&b in her bag, I don’t wanna hear r&b go up against hip hop like that.

So what are you considering r&b for missy? Any song(s) that she sings on or her being featured on songs with r&b artist but she raps.

For example what do you consider these songs

Can we
Hot like fire
Things we do remix
Beep me 911
