- Patricia Sweet
- Bell Biv Devoe: Poison. Once you hear the first snare of this jam, people on the dance floor automatically start doing the running man. Bell Biv Devoe features half of New Edition and is one of the first examples of blending R&B and hip-hop pre-Jodeci.
- Mariah Carey – Fantasy. Choosing the best R&B jam from the Mariah Carey cannon is like picking your favorite child, the woman has had No.1 hits every decade since she hit her first falsetto note, but “Fantasy” combines all of the elements of Mimi.
- Ginuwine – Pony. Not to be outdone, Ginuwine’s sonic love letter to lady-on-top has what is quite possibly the most unmistakable beat in R&B history, along with the least subtle metaphor ever written.
- Montell Jordan: This Is How We Do It. This is the ultimate party starter that has stood the test of time. “It’s Friday niiight and I feel alright! ,” Montell Jordan sang over a sampled loop of Slick Rick’s “Children’s Story.”
- Damien Scott
- Chris Brown, 11:11. Since Chris Brown’s 2005 debut, he’s rocketed to the moon thanks to his dulcet vocals, sticky hooks, and hellacious footwork. With a career marred by controversy, Brown remains a formidable draw in his 18th year in the music industry.
- Khamari, A Brief Nirvana. Sparking one of the most buzziest — and refreshing —moments in 2023 was the release of Khamari’s debut studio album. The 11-track RCA project brims with striking promise, thanks to the multi-instrumentalist-singer’s raw and insightful lyrics, genre-fusing sonics and sinuous tenor.
- Cleo Sol, Gold. The prevalence of “toxic” lyrics has been a major talking point in discussions concerning contemporary R&B. With Gold – the second in a pair of two 2023 LPs from the British soul savant – Cleo Sol makes a concerted effort to infuse her melodies with positive affirmations and unassuming words of wisdom.
- Don Toliver, Love Sick. Toliver’s third studio album, Love Sick, finds the trap&B singer crooning his Styrofoam cup-fueled confessions of being in love while obsessed with riches and illicit substances.
- Let’s Stay Together’ by Al Green. Al Green’s greatest gift to the world is that he makes love funky. The lyrics to the Reverend’s landmark 1971 hit, ‘Let’s Stay Together,’ articulate the solemn vows of marriage: ‘Whether times are good or bad, happy or sad.’
- My Girl’ by the Temptations. This sugary ’64 chart-topper (the Temptations’ first) might be the best puppy-love song of all time. Penned by fellow Motown signees the Miracles, its instantly recognizable guitar riff (right up there with the one from ‘Satisfaction’), peppy finger snaps, unabashed optimism and comforting-as-a-much-needed-hug harmonies can make even the most jaded downer feel all warm inside.
- Dilemma’ by Nelly ft. Kelly Rowland. Probably one of the best duets ever. If you’re looking to woo a partner via the medium of the karaoke mic, this is a sure way to achieve that (probably).
- Untitled (How Does It Feel?)’ by D’Angelo. Coupled with soul man D’Angelo’s extraordinary songwriting chops and an exquisitely chiseled body, the video for ‘Untitled’ is almost too much to watch; the singer is naked as far as the eye can see, and he licks his lips as he sings the song’s refrain (he was thinking of his grandma’s home cooking, he maintains).
