Has there ever been a drier, lamer, and wacker singer to "make it" than Musiq Soulchild?

[damo75]

I always measure a R&B, Neo Soul artist on their live performance. I was a Musiq fan for his first 3 albums. After i saw that live show though for the first time i looked at him totally different. I have not bought an album of his since.

John Legend is overrated, I only like one song of his

one star, pending neg rep

his first 2 albums aijuswannasang and jusslissen are r&b soul classics. He kinda fell off after that I admit but he still has a discography and singles to match up with any of his peers

This.

I think this thread is reach. Soulchild was definitely an average singer at best, but at the same time he made good RnB music. You're right in the sense that he didnt have a "gimmick" or a "hook", and/or market himself as anything in particular...he didnt sell a sexual image, he wasnt an "overweight crooner", a "throwback", nor did he position himself as a high powered RnB megastar. He was just an everyday cat, who sung about everyday issues.

and This.

Musiq is that dude.

Hes like a more accessible Anthony Hamilton.

He's made some of the most memorable R&B of the decade as well.

Do you listen to adult R&B stations?

Musiq is pretty much guaranteed to tour for the rest of his life with a solid fanbase.

For the longest time I thought Musiq Soulchild and Dave Hollister were the same person for some reason.

Probably.

They both equally weak imo.

Yes, I do. Coming across one of his awful songs today is what inspired this thread.

Solid fanbase doesn't mean the music is any good.

Rihanna, the most talented talentless person ever. Kim Kardashian a close second.

I think he makes good music, but he's boring.
