all the responses for D'Angelo got no backing motivation behind it, just nikkas stanning.

That tells you all you need to know about the clear winner :wow: #TheRer



The irony in this statement is that OP always has an issue if u dont co sign who he likes or dislikes.

Idk what it is breh, but I never been a fan of R Kelly's music. I know he's a legend and all but :yeshrug:. I'm picky as fukk when it comes to R&B


As far as R&B, I like more of the smoothed out type. Anita Baker, Maxwell, Carl Thomas, Marvin Gaye, Mary J Blige, Curtis Mayfield, Nat King Cole, Sam Cooke, etc
Stevie Wonder and Micheal Jackson are the only non smoothed out shyt I fukk with :hubie:




I wish R Kelly can make more songs like this

I got Kelly.

He's the...

- Better songwriter
- Better vocalist
- Wrote dope/classic songs for other accomplished and legendary artists
- More expansive discography
- More versatlie and creative
- More classics. Songs and albums
- produces damn near all his shyt
:mjlol:
Half of that shyt is subjective, and if you compare the work Kelly does to D’Angelo on the production tip, D’Angeo wins in a landslide.

How does the guy who wrote “Trapped in the closet” and “I believe I can fly” compare to the guy who wrote the “Brown Sugar” album by himself when he was like 19

Brehs just say crazy shyt. Post some R Kelly “classics” so we can see how dated they sound.

There’s no way R Kelly is “more creative” than d’angelo - you obviously don’t understand the process that went into VooDoo. There wa a guy playing bass and guitar at the same time on certain songs. D’angelo was working out of Electric Ladyland, him and Questlove helped break down how drums should be played. On Black Messiah, D’Angelo learned how to play guitar and would make his own patches for sounds (shyt r Kelly never did, because no one’s done that since the 70s)

I’m actually offering why D’angelo’s better, instead of just saying subjective shyt as if that matters. The only thing Kelly has over him, is he worked with more artists. But D’angelo worked with the soulquarians, and defined a new genre of music which had an impact to this day with all the neo-soul wannabes.
