In terms of musical arrangement, I would have to go with Barry. He is what I call the black Betovenh. When it comes to singing those songs that will help you get your ladies panties off, I would have to go with Teddy!!

If you are talking about vocals, I'll definitely go with Teddy. That boy could sing his ass off.
If you are talking writing and arranging, I'd take Barry. I'm not a huge fan of Barry's, but he was extremely talented. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

If I took this concept into a studio 2 lay somethin down I'd take Barry's string orchestration, percussion, and horns and put some words 2 Teddy's soulful growl. | |

Teddy in a heartbeat.
While Barry was a fabulous baritone, his music were abit one dimensional; bedroom atmosphere. Teddy tackled different feelings which made him a winner in my book. | |

Musical arrangement: Barry White. The dude had some killer tracks; strings, drums, horns, and a nice rhythm section. If in doubt, just listen to "Put me in your Mix"
Lyrical content: Teddy P Sex Appeal: Teddy P. Vocals: Wow. I would give the nod to Barry. I still rock "Come On" and my wife just freaking melts!! Collaborations: Barry White..I thinking Big Daddy Kane, working on probably the greatest slow jam ever (IMO)..."The Secret Garden", he worked with the ageless wonder, Tina Turner, the brother has a nice list going. Longevity: Tie. They both dropped something like 20 plus albums, a ton of #1 grooves, and compilation albums. I would say a tie. In the end, you can't go wrong with either of them. But I would pick Barry White..just because of "Sho you right" The dude crushed that song. “When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a Communist.” Brazilian bishop Dom Hélder Câmara | |

I love Barry but sometimes his music seemed a lil repetitive to me. Like the same chords, beats or something. | |

I think all the bands and musicians back then went thru that. You come out with a certain style and it rewrites or adds another chapter 2 the book. But then the label sees dollars signs so now the studio becomes an assembly line and you're forced 2 punch the clock or end your carreer if you breach your contract. | |
