    Kelly has pipes but has never come up with anything in the same league as Voodoo. D'Angelo is a musician who can sing. Kelly is a singer looking for music that keeps him in bling.b, 21b, 21"You remind me of my jeep."b, 21b, 215-year-olds are deeper than this.b, 21b, 21Oops. Kelly and kids in the same sentence.

    1. This track sounds like boring shoe store music.b, 212. D'angelo will probably never top "Spanish Joint"

    Mofockas fronting on D'Angelo calls for my most emphasized GTFOHWTB.b, 21b, 21Brown Sugar was "cool" but as an album it's not as important than what it stood for at the time. Maxwell's 1st album was better.b, 21b, 21But Voodoo? Nothinf focking withat.

    hahaha, ok mister. I suppose "remake" was a little strong but his vocal style on that song was definitely a nod to Frankie.

    b, 21b, 21Dude, this may be more suspect than your foreign policy philosophies. img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" 21 b, 21b, 21h, 21b, 21b, 21b, 21who in our generation do you think is better than D and Saadiq? b, 21b, 21h, 21b, 21b, 21Saadiq wouldn't even make my top 10. I never understood his appeal; I dig his most recent album but only because it doesn't sound like a Saadiq album. Of course, maybe I'm just dogging on him because I found that Joss Stone album he produced to be unfathomably dull. b, 21b, 21As for D'Angelo - dude made I>two[/i] albums and you're talking about "greatest of our generation"? Shit, Marvin Gaye probably put out the same number of songs on I>Here My Dear/I> alone. b, 21b, 21I like D'Angelo, really liked both of his albums. Bummed dude had to lose his mind and cop a drug habit because I think pop music would have been better the last 10 years with him in the game rather than out of it. But the idea that he could be considered the greatest artist of our generation is hard to accept when you look at his limited influence and output. b, 21b, 21Musically speaking, Timbaland crushes all. That's not open for debate.b, 21b, 21As a songwriter, I think R. Kelly's been more influential and dare I say: creative. "Brown Sugar" and "Untitled (How Does It Feel?)" are not genius songwriting even if the songs are likable. "Trapped In the Closet Pts. 1-15" is some bugged out, surreal, downright nutsoid shit but no one can accuse it of being conventional. b, 21b, 21As a vocalist, that's even more subjective. I'd rather listen to D'Angelo sing than, say, R. Kelly though.b, 21b, 21Overall, the greatest R&B artist of our generation wouldn't even be male. It comes down to a three-way battle between Whitney, Mariah and Mary.
