In a Verzuz (R&B), who should go against Brian McKnight?

[King]

Babyface

 

[B90X]

Man I’d kill for a Silk vs Dru Hill battle.

Wouldn’t mind a 112 vs Jagged Edge either.

This happened already

 

[CashmereThoughts]

Joe, maybe Raphael Saadiq

nah man. Rafaels pen is responsible for lady by Deangelo. When you start getting into what he’s responsible for in his groups, his solo work and songs he constructed for others it’s over before it starts

 

[Rhapscallion Démone]

Jaheim maybe

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

Johnny Gill or Tyrese.

Johnny could Literally just play jams from his self titled album and win

Brian McKnight not fukkin wit keith...

It was always something missing about Brian's music...

He is vocally gifted but his music reminds me of cheap yogurt from the supermarket...
You dont notice it when you mix it in a smoothie, but you just cant tolerate eating all of it alone...

He got some good songs, but his music overall dont do it for me

I think Brian McKnight works better as a live artist than a studio artist imo. Like some of his shyt on his CDs but then you hear the live versions and shyt slaps.

I gotchu.

I don’t know about washing him... but my question is who would you have go against Keith Sweat in a decent battain't?

Don't know who exactly, but it has to be someone who also Produced and wrote for others.

 

[frush11]

Joe would wash damn near everyone minus the 3 heavyweights Kellz, CB, and Usher.

Joe solo catalog its not that heavy

 

[Vandelay]

Keith sweat

First person I thought of...but Keith got him. Keith can't sing for shyt, but he got hits. Joe got him too. Kenny Lattimore and Carl Thomas hit the same lanes, but Brian has more star power.

Because Verzuz doesn't quite get the matchups right...imma say John Legend. John Legend is the next gen version of him. That smooth, non-aggressive, non-threatening, play on volume 2 while you work at your office job while you punch numbers in an excel spreadsheet type music.
