I just looked at the list and I am happy my ol’ man was #5, but I was disappointed in some of the artist that were further down the list then they shouldv’e been. Example. How is Beyonce ahead of Chaka Khan, Gladys Knight and Patti Labelle. I like Bey, but she still has more work to do and has only been out less then 20 years. Teena Marie and Sade should’ve had higher chart positions too and what about Earth Wind and Fire and Barry White after R Kelly. Give me a bleepin break.
You gonna have a top 50 r&b list and there is no George Clinton/P-Funk? GTFOH!
The hell with this list. It was just……just……wrong lol !!!!
