She's wasn't a R&B artist.

From the I'm Your Baby Tonight album till the end Whitney was definitely R&B

But yeah this list is dumpster trash
Jill Scott?
Bye

Jill is getting a tribute for the 2nd time this year tomorrow at the Soul Train Awards

I'm kinda confused tbh :udontlookok: Is she even popular? I only know like three songs from her
whit' sang R&B n pop
she shoul' b included
if we went by tht kinda standards
bey shouldnt b there either
There are more essential artists in r&b
How was this shit formulated

right
Erykah isn't like the pioneer of the whole Neo-Soul movement
Baduizm>Jill
this list was clearly compiled by a mostly white panel and is based more on sales/awards
Jill is the kween
Her first alb' alone
:stressed:
This list is based on influence on R&B genre.
The list doesn't make any sense either way
influence, sales, awards. No way should Usher and Bey be that low
and Brandy not listed
Yeah Aaliyah definitely should be on here too. Groups were excluded as well.

Whit was definitely POP. Infact, there are many things out there that even talk about folks being mad at her for making music in the favor of a "white audience".
Whitney was pop and R&B.
She was both which would still make her eligible for this list
Don't know why there's a debate n
Whitney and Neyonce are both pop, but Bey made it :dead:
these lists are ALWAYS dumb....and the people that make threads about them are even MORE dumb
Rihanna and Mariah should've made it

Because her release date was cancelled.
45s
Bitch Better
American Oxy
Towards The Sun
All flops and didn't stick
& the Home soundtrack FLOPPED too
:feelinmyself:
Selling tickets for $30 and going from stadiums back to arenas. Having opening acts that are currently outselling and outcharting her.
& Travi$ gave her the bug!
Wow Beyonc? is gorgeous

All those charted better than
Grown Wom and Standin on the Sun

This list has been discussed. I found it cute. Sade and Brandy were big ppl they missed.
What separated Bey's hip hop infused up-tempos from Katy Perry's "Dark Horse" is the soulful vocal delivery. That's what gives it the R&B edge that Rita, or Katy lack.
im still stuck on how whit wasnt R&B?

She may not be popular on your station, but she's very popular. I don't have any problem with her being on the list because they have her right near the bottom, anyway. She deserves to be right about there with some of the other top neo soul acts.

It does seem premature to give Jill Scott a tribute award. But why do y'all think hosting is some lowly thing? You have to have a host that people know and want to see and that has personality. Jill Scott would make a boring host, IMO.
