Name Your 5 Flawless R&B/Soul Albums From Start To Finish

Where you don't have to Skip or FFWD or any shit like that! Just tight straight through! Just press play and walk away!

1 - Maxwell: Urban Hang Suite = Probably the only flawless album I own. Near perfect in every aspect.

2 - Guy: Guy = New Jack Swing with its nuts hanging all out from start to end!

3 - D'Angelo: Brown Sugar = Neo Classic Soul's beginning and terrific all the way through.

4 - Bilal: First Born 2nd = Great voice mixed with great production all throughout.

5 - Rahsaan Patterson: Rahsaan Patterson = Completely gorgeous from beginning to end.

Anyways, there's one Gap Band album I consider 'flawless',
The Gap Band (the Mercury album, not the Tattoo one, since I've yet to hear it lol)

No particular order:

















And I have to add this one:


Prince Rogers Nelson
Sunrise: June 7, 1958
Sunset: April 21, 2016
~My Heart Loudly Weeps

"My Creativity Is My Life." ~ Prince

Life is merely a dress rehearsal for eternity.

some excellent choices there.

i know a lot of people will balk at this but i seriously
think Macy Gray's debut album "on how life is" should be
mentioned here.

her consequent albums were less than mediocre but this 1
was simply flawless. i can't believe how disappointed it
was to find all her later releases sucked so bad.

still, one of my fav albums:

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps
