There must be one very very busy mother and father that's making all these male RnB clones. They all look, sing and dance the same. Their videos are always them with some mindless slut dancing around them shoving their tits at the camera with the hope of someone throwing some cash at them.
The list:
Usher
Mario
Mario Winnans
Bobby Valentino
Marques Houston
Omarion
Cassidy
R-Kelly
John Legend
Will Smith
Nelly
Craig David
And every tossa thats made an appearance in an Ashanti video!

Damn you to hell Michael Jackson, Damn you to hell!
or atleast you're god-forsaken influence. And the R'n' B boycott lives on, wahay!

John Legend's inclusion on that list is a bit much. He's extremely talented.
And Will Smith isn't half as identikit as the rest.
And everyone knows R Kelly.
Pretty much agree with the rest, though.

I actually have a little bit of like for Marques Houston, but only for the phrase.. "Go Home Roger!"

R Kelly is surely more responsible than Michael Jackson for the utter wank that passes off as R&B these days. "I Believe I Can Fly" is the template for all the anodyne easy-listening dirges that Mario, Usher, et al produce. Even Jacko bought into it in the end -- the man who wrote classic ballads like "Man In The Mirror" reduced to releasing tosh like "You Are Not Alone".
Mind you, Kelly's uptempo stuff is better than any of the competitors named above. She's Got That Vibe and Ignition (Remix) are excellent modern R'n'B.

That is so true about what you said, they are all the same.They probably even have the same DNA matches. |

Sorry to be pedantic but Jacko didn't write 'man in the mirror'

I agree, John Legend and Will Smith are not really the same as others.

It's like every month record labels release the same R&B shit with different name on it.I'm really irritated.
