What are we basis this criteria off of?

I got En vogue first, then TLC, then SWv

En vogue- 2 flawless albums- born to sing and funky divas. Can do uptempo and slow songs.

Tlc- 2 damn near flawless albums. probably a 4.8 out of 5. Ooooh on the tlc tip and crazy sexy cool

SWV- they have the vocal powerhouse in coco. They have hits for days. But they don't have a flawless album like Tlc or En vogue. that's why they are third.

TLC is

En Vogue didn't have a deep enough run into the 90's IMO. They dropped a killer single from Set It Off, but failed to deliver on the album plus I needed all 4 of them.

SWV is top 3 tho

Total and Xscape fill out the top 5

I think from a commercial standpoint, it's TLC.


But SWV's music hit me deeper.


TLC's music leaned more to the teeny bop/poppy side.


I'm just speaking strictly about the music.


SWV had that visceral, down to earth/ "tenderoni" feel

lol @ TLC's music being teeny bopper or pop, don't let their crossover appeal/success taint what was actually their music (ohhh... was hip hop r&b, crazysexycool was mature r&b cuts, fanmail was futuristic/experimental). but i can respect you feeling swv's music more.

funny yall saying coko can sing, i come across a lot of people who say the opposite. they don't hold it against her cuz her style clearly worked and created classics, but i've had this debate with a lot of folks

TLC had a more grown up concept for later albums, but it always felt a lil too manufactured to me.

It flowed out of SWV more naturally imo....But that's just me:hubie:


Thanks for your engagement, tho.....Much respect:salute:
