SPIN: Best R&B Single of the '90s: 1998

[DANJ!]

'98 was... eh, but had some gems in the mix... wat you got?

 

[TheGregReaper]

All of them is bangers but Nice & Slow one of my favorite songs of all time.

 

[brownsugah]

I voted for Jon B.’s “They Don’t Know”.

 

[Newark88]

Some of these dropped in 97, no?

 

[JustCKing]

This is tough. For me, 1998 was ill. There's even stuff that's not on the list, that still goes:

 

[mobbinfms]

Torn between Next and Faith

 

[frush11]

Tamia

 

[BiggWebb79]

Next- Too Close none of those songs sparked an internet sensation 18 years later

 

[OHSNAP!]

All my life or Let's Ride

OP you done fukked up

 

[Wacky D]

this list was rushed.

montell Jordan/no limit
Deborah cox
kc & jojo - was meh to me but still.

jagged edge had the best single, but I don't know if it was big enough for this list.
same thing with SPLACKAVELLIE.

first list i'm not feeling collectively ...i mean those were all decent and/or popular songs, but the only ones i truly love are "they dont know" and "no guarantee". jon b gets the vote

This is my choice. Yes 98 had a lot of R&B bangers but if this song isnt your #1 then u werent in love that year.

 

[smokeurobinson]

How u gonna leave out "Lately" op? How?
