Toni would get absolutely embarrassed :russ:

At least Faith got enough joints to keep it interesting in a Verzuz format. Toni wouldn't win a single round against Mary. Y'all nikkas need to stop :unimpressed:

Mary would definitely beat Toni in a Verzuz, but Toni would have a strong 7-10 joints. After ger second album, it would be a struggle for Toni. Not saying those 7-10 joints would win, but I could see Toni getting a few rounds with these:

Love Should've Brought You Home
Breathe Again
Another Sad Love Song
Seven More Days
You Mean The World To Me
Unbreak My Heart
You're Making Me High

These statements are ban worthy and invalidates anything else these posters may say

And Everything they post from now on should be ignored

Dont even respond to them.


Wise man said don't argue with fools
Mary can’t do the full catalog. So yeah. Song selection is her weak point.

Hmm, honestly harder than it appears, in the 90s I will say from a singing standpoint and even album wise they were, dare I say neck and neck. Both have nice voices and had their albums executively produced by Puff. Mary just has the catalog.

idk why y'all don't put respect on Toni's name, up until after she dropped The Heat, Toni was good out here.

most people respect the hell outta toni, but she's the 50 cent/DMX of r&b...really huge run out the gate but a sharp decline by album 3. she also has a lot of ballad work that just doesn't resonate today, it makes it harder for her to find a good matchup - someone like MJB is going to win with the Verzuz crowd based on being more soulful + hip hop and having a deeper catalog, someone like Mariah has versatility plus a deeper catalog, and even someone like Janet has more classic love/sensual songs + great dance tracks and a deeper catalog...she's just outmatched with those who make sense for her to go up against

I do notice more of her music is "adult-contemporary" based it seems like? Which is weird because babyface and (maybe LA Reid) made a lot of songs.

All these points about Toni I just addressed a couple posts up, she was huge but doesn’t have longevity as a relevant act and simply fails to matchup well against the people who make sense for her to “compete” with. He ain’t have to say it disrespectfully, but Toni doesn’t win :yeshrug:
