    R.Kelly is one of ushers influences and is the king of 90's RNB

    I can understand someone liking Kels more than Usher but all time. He is no Stevie, Marvin or Prince. He is the most famous of a generation

    I consider stevie and marvin to be more soul than rnb. When it comes to songs about relationships(freaky songs, breakup songs, etc) aint nobody ? with kellz. Then he also has ? like, i believe i can fly, i wish, trapped in the closet series. THe ? wrote for micheal, he wrote for micheal -chappelle voice- lol . His 90s ? alone is shittin on most ? whole catalouge.

    So he is better than Babyface & Luther? He is the best at sex music thats it. He makes more simple raunchy music that some people like. He also wrote "2 gorillas in the jungle making love" & constant monkey sounds listen to R&B Thug

    R.Kelly of Course..but Usher is one of the greatest tho...If you were to put in Sports terms R.Kelly would be the Jordan of R&B and Usher would be Kobe.

    Usher's got what, like 2 or 3 dope RnB albums? After Confessions I think he fell off and started all that pop/techno ? .

    I'd probably choose Kells just off his hits, and the hooks he does for hip hop.

    R. Kelly is a musical behemoth



    You shoulda compared him to BabyFace and we'd have a proper discussion .. .
