Spin: male r&b singers who fell off hard

[Michael's Black Son]

Donell Jones gotta be 1 of the biggest disappointments because Where I Wannabe showed sooooooo much potential for more. I mean, the album is a classic but it just seem like bruh should've been a big star in the game.

Co-sign 1 trillion percent breh. Where I Wanna Be is literally the LAST great album of the 90s and a damn good way to kick off a career. No reason why he couldn't have had a little run. Even tho Kellz was killings the game there was enough room for others to eat at the time and Donell Jones shoulda been right up there

Alexander O'neal should've been as big as Luther.

Big Luther or Lil Luther?

Say what you want about him but DB never got a fair shot

This nikka def couldn't sing.

Dwele

nikka couldn't sing for shyt

 

[zayk35]

he got hooked on that shyt

Even as a youngin I knew he had that coked-up/crackhead look....had a cousin named Willie James who had the whole Alexander O'Neal steeze in the mid 80s and was cracked the fukk out so Alexander O'Neal is kinda like the dictionary definition of a crackhead to me

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

RL

 

[Ol’Otis]

RL

yeah the other 2 were pretty much background singers

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

Yall see jodeci in the apollo the other week

That's what happens when you singing yo ass off throughout the 90s

 

[Dillah810]

Although Donnell Jones's music career didn't rise after Whee I Wanna Be, don't he still make a shyt ton of money from songwriting?

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

I know they still trying to tour but



I miss them

 

[I love Latina women]

Whole damn album was dope.

 

[I love Latina women]

Ima keep it real, maxwells last album was trash, I waited 7 years for that


Usher who I feel fell off has better songs on his album

Damn, yeah I ain't had an itch to listen to it at all.

 

[I love Latina women]

naw

tbh after MTV's unplugged i didn't really fukk with him

a few songs of black summer nights was cool tho
especially Bad Habits

True and Bad Habits was my shyt too. (I can hear Marvin singing that!) but how bout this 1?

Exactly, I say this every time I listen to Where I Wanna Be. That album was a stroke (pause) of brilliance. There definitely was some room for him to sit at the table and eat back then. He should've been 1 of the biggest singers around. Bruh can write too, he was writing his own shyt!

I agree with it being the last great album of the 90's. I STILL keep that album in rotation

Big Luther or Lil Luther?

This nikka def couldn't sing.

nikka couldn't sing for shyt

Big or lil Luther, it didn't matter his weight, the nikka could SANG!

Dwele wasn't much of a singer but he was cool. I always liked Find A Way and his feature on Flashing Lights

Yeah, he should be good because of that.

Man, I wish I could really sing and write (better) cause I'd get in the game and really trying to get it back on track.

I'd try to be on some Babyface/DeVante Swing writing and producing shyt. Start up my own label and be really trying to bring R&B music back to the forefront.
