Keith Sweat it aint even close.

I was real small when they both dropped. I just remember Keith Sweat having a hold on my Aunts, brothers and older cousins!! Had me singing the "In the Rain."


As an ex music producer. Keith had no business putting 808s in R&B in the 80s. Amazing. Every songs from this album is Epic. Has been sampled and reuse so much.

As a DJ, I can play every song on this album. He has uptempo dances classics to heartbreak songs to slow dancing songs. Make it Last forever might be Top 10 song ever when it comes to Black Gatherings.

Damn homie. You‘re making me disagree with you. No doubt I want her was a hit but nothing got the party started like Groove me or even Teddy‘s Jam.

However, more iconic album belongs to Keith…hands down.

Both are timeless. I just ran Guy back this weekend cause I copped it on vinyl. Mf bangs now just as if it just came out last week. But that Keith album just jams different. "Right and a Wrong Way" and "How Deep Is Your Love" are STILL quiet storm staples and has been since the day it dropped. And that’s ill as fukk cause neither were ever released as proper singles.

Listening to both also makes me wonder how new jack swing isn’t even attempted by newer artists. Just listening to them joints put you in a good mood. Impossible to want to fight after cutting up to “Teddy’s Jam.”
Uhh. You must be young breh. This was peak crack era. Fights and shootouts happened at every function.

Edit: even though Teddy won't admit it, the term "New Jack" was something the dope dealers gave to the crack dealers because they saw them as newcomers/wannabes/Johnny come lateleys.
