*placeholder so I can be first*

Edit, I give them a 7 for the cuts but vocally I wasn’t impressed. I realize they were kids when they started and sound damn near prepubescent but eh as they grew up/deeper I felt the same way.

 

[Rhapture]

I'm giving them a 7

I'm giving them a 7

 

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

song still gets me in my feelings to this day. i'mma give em a 7 though cause I never fukked with them that heavy and I think they are SLIGHTLY overrated.


They were better as solo acts though

 

[Rhapture]

I'm living on the edge today

 

[lightskin jermaine]

Legendary group that spawned legendary and elite solo talent.

 

[Luke Cage]

Mr telephone man, there something wrong with my line!

they don't just have hits, they have timeless classics.

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Iconic group. But I’d be lying if I said I liked their music. Their solo and offshoot acts were much better imo. But when you put all that into the equation these cats are legends and are on the short list of best groups ever. Plus Johnny Gill got one of the best voices ever. 9

 

[Rozay Oro]

10. I try to dance like these brehs like their vids Hit Me Off, If It Isn't Love, NE Heartbreak and You're Not My Type of Girl. Im a 90s baby and play these boys catalog and solo stuff. If you got a problem you can get negged .

Spoiler

Edit:
If It Isn't Love and Can You Stand The Rain gets played at work's radio lol

 

[feelosofer]

I am going to give them an 9. I think members have the most compelling stories after the Jacksons and the Temptations.

Yes they initially molded themselves after the Jacksons in that sort of light poppy style but by the 2nd album they already had at least 4 or 5 classic songs. Also once Bobby Brown left they ended getting Johnny Gill who changed the entire perception and sound of the band. Heartbreak is a classic album and 'Can You Stand the Rain' and 'Boys to Men' are probably some if the smoothest R&B songs of the past 30 or so years. They are a staple of American Music and even came close to another comeback in the 90s but just couldn't keep it together.

Plus Mr Telephone Man is a personal all time favorite of mine. It came out when I was 11-12 and it really captured that feeling of trying to that girl I liked.

 

[I'm Blackman]

10 off Mr telephone man alone.
