Who Will Be Named The Official King Of R&B?

R&B is far from dead. In 2019, Jacquees anointed himself the undisputed ruler of R&B and fans did not agree. Commenters mentioned Chris Brown and said he's today's true King of R&B.

R. Kelly has been named by fans consistently as they engaged in the debate over which male artist is the King of R&B. Known as "The King of Soul," Otis Redding was one of the greatest R&B singers of all time.

R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey help to make R&B more popular today than what it ever has been. 90's R&B performances felt more intimate. The music was so great that the artist could literally just coast their performance and the crowd would still feel it.

What Would R. Kelly Say About Jacqees Naming His Album King of R&B?

Jacquees is teasing at R. Kelly and the rest of the R&B singers as he has just released a new album titled 'King of R&B.' I'm just imagining what R. Kelly things about this while he is still locked up behind bars.

Jacquees had boldly claimed he was the 'King Of R&B', but R Kelly, John Legend and more had a few things to say last year. Tyrese and Tank took to social media to firmly assert R.Kelly is the king of R&B and that Jacquees is a new artist who still has work to do.

Jacquees caused a bit of a stir last year, when he boldly declared himself the “King of R&B.” Jacquees hasn't abandoned this belief. On Thursday, the self-proclaimed “King of R&B” delivered his sophomore album dubbed, well, King of R&B.

R. Kelly Named King Of R&B

Jacquees says he's the King of R&B for this generation, but reports say otherwise. There has been no other R&B artist with more controversy or hits than the main man R. Kelly.

Tyrese and Tank took to social media to firmly assert R.Kelly is the King of R&B and that Jacquees is a new artist who still has work to do.

A 'Kings of R&B' tour would be the perfect way to settle the debate. Put all the R&B stars together to perform and see who come out on top. We want to see record sales, crowd movement, and someone named the King.

Although R. Kelly has had problems in most of his music career fondling with kids, fans have come to overlook that due to his creation of hits. Women have always endure the star and loved the videos he has put forth.

With more than 38 million albums sold over the past 20 years, R. Kelly's provocative style and tender ballads have helped to define the sound.

What Happened To R Kelly?

Back in the 90s, R Kelly was known as the king of R&B. He revived a dying genre with his monstrous hits like Bump n Grind, I Believe I Can Fly, and Ignition. Kelly was not only a singer he had a cultural impact, he made R&B mainstream.

Understanding The Greatest Beef In R&B History

Not only do the Wrap-Up Magazine feel R. Kelly should be crowned the King of R&B, he also should go down as being part of R&B's greatest beef of all time!

From Down Low through Busted, R Kelly and Ronald Isley made some of the best hit songs together. If you’re a 90’s R&B head like myself, you’ve probably witnessed the longstanding feud between R. Kelly and Mr. Biggs (Ron Isley). Year after year and song after song these two were at each other’s necks.

Is R. Kelly King Of R&B Or Usher?

R. Kelly has been doing an amazing job lately at dodging court appearances and doing interviews like the one with Mrs. King.

Bobby Brown confidently proclaimed the title of King of R&B as well did Jacquees. Although Usher carry the lead in most hits created, fans seems to love R. Kelly music more.

R. Kelly's first solo album, 12 Play, was released on November 9, 1993, and yielded the singer's first number-one hit, "Bump N' Grind", which spent a record-breaking 12 weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles chart.

Usher has been fearless with his music. These are the two great rnb legends who have been singing for decades, though one, the younger, is more relevant up to present.
