out of all the "soulful" white katz and kitenz out there, who could legitimately take over an established R&B band, like EW&F or Mint Condition and make a great album of new material that would be accepted as legit by R&B fans?

A. Daryl Hall (hall & oates)
B. Mick Hucknall (simply red)
C. George Michael
D. Boy George
E. Joss Stone

I disagree with Pink. She's tried to distance herself greatly from R&B.

I can definately see Winwood fronting an R&B band.

what the hell happened to this guy?! I LOVE his debut album,but where is the follow-up?? I need some new music from him.

Bill Wolfer. His one solo album may have MJ and Stevie Wonder on backing vocals, but on some tracks that Stevie isn't on, you can barely hear a difference in their voices at all.

100MPH said:

Nice . She's right about people saying things and others will believe whatever they say. I think that she could make a comeback, but Yo-Yo? No way. I saw her on the fashion network and she's definitely not comeback material, but that's just my opinion. Thanks 100MPH.

nurse said:

Haven't seen that Yo-Yo-show , but thanx for the update .
