You're right He's not a master vocalist but was damn good and he really didn't need to be he sounded great on his songs as well as live. He crushed beautiful ones Mariah shyt was Aight.

People might disagree with this but Mariah and Sisqo killed this imo

Yes, I disagree!

That's cool. I love him as an instrumentalist more than anything. He has a lot of mid shyt to me

people usually find cover versions because the original wouldn't clear the sample, and the cover song gets more popular, but not necessarily the better version, etc...slick rick resang the chorus for la di da di, covered by snoop, etc

LOL, I didn't notice you were already discussing Beautiful Ones lmao @315. Some weird quoting going on. I wasn't trying to pile on. I just genuinely do not mess with that Mariah/Dru Hill version but the original is a tall order to match... I suspect you already knew that.

I love Prince's. I listen to Mariah's more.
About piling on, don't worry about it. I've taken plenty of arrows in my life for my opinions on Prince

Here's an easy one En Vouge ate this shyt

You outta your friggin mind breh breh

Sybil's make over (pun intended) of Dionne Warwick's "Don't Make Me Over". Both are really good, honestly. I just prefer the 80's synth bop.

 

[DTXwavey_02]

Maybe a controversial pick, but I always liked this version over the Isley brothers joint

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

Avant and keke Wyatt
