    R. Kelly vs. Babyface........ R. Kelly for me. I dont like much of Face's solo work.

    Mary J Blige vs Toni Braxton....... Is this a joke? - Mary all day.

    Mariah Carey vs Whitney Houston...... "I Have Nothing" >>>> Mariah Carey

    Maxwell vs D'Angelo....... Maxwell, more consistent.

    Jodeci vs Boys II Men vs Silk vs Toni Tony Tone..... TTT >> Jodeci >> Silk >> Boyz II Men

    En Vogue vs. TlC vs SWV vs Xscape..... SWV >> TLC >> En Vogue >> Xscape

    Dru Hill vs 112...... Dru Hill >>>

    Aaliyah vs. Brandy vs Monica....... Aaliyah >>

    Next vs Blackstreet..... Blackstreet >>

    Lauryn Hill vs Erykah Badu...... Erykah >>

    Michael or Janet?........ In the 90's? Janet! Don't forget Rhythm Nation 1814.... even though it dropped in '89, many of the singles were released in 1990 or after.

    R.kelly - I liked Babyface as well, but my personal preference would be R. Kelly.

    Mary J Blige - Give me soul music any day. Toni is more hybrid r&b/pop

    Mariah Carey - I just wasn't that into Whitney at that age.

    D'Angelo - I must admit I couldn't get into Maxwell early on. I wasn't into the whole neo-soul vibe and still am not really. BlackSummersNight has a slightly different vibe than his earlier work.

    Jodeci - All day. Baby making music for the 90's. Their harmonies are a bit more raw than Boyz II Men and Toni, Tony, Tone which give Jodeci the edge.

    En Vogue vs. TlC vs SWV vs Xscape - I can't call it. Depends on the day for me, so today I'll go with SWV. En Vogue is the ? though!

    Dru Hill - Better songs.

    Aaliyah - Aaliyah even though I prefer Monica's voice. Aaliyah has better songs.

    Blackstreet

    Lauryn Hill - Just listened to Unplugged in the car this morning, and Lauryn is truly gifted.

    Michael - As crazy as this may sound, I was never into Janet hard. Probably because I missed her on the come up.

    Basically.

    Not only based on numbers, but based on sheer impact...it would have to be Mariah.
