You can say that again! All those good bands would never make it today. It seems that, by and large, to make it in the current R&B scene, you have to be a product of a producer and marketable with an image. I like the New Jack Swing stuff, but again, most of those artists were just an extension of the producers. Bobby Brown (though I like a great deal of his early stuff) was not a good singer, but he had that sound that Teddy Riley engineered. It coulda been just about anyone that sang it -- but it happened to be him. As good as it was at times, I think that was the start of the downward trend in the R&B scene.

Bands I love that no longer are popular or in favor (or just flat out don't exist):

Bar-Kays
Gap Band
ConFunkShun
Bootsy Collins and the Rubber Band (yeah, he's still around, but not like he used to be)
Mint Condition were great for a time

Other acts I miss:

Run-DMC
Doug E Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew
Talking Heads
Klymaxx (hey, at least they wrote and produced a lot of their own stuff! lol )
Fishbone
Alice in Chains
