No, that would be a guilty pleasure -- a totally different thread.  You mean hard drugs can only do you good then? | |

Hey, buddy, if you can't see the uniqueness and ingenuity inherent in this thread, that's your problem. I see the uniqueness of it! There are a lot of artists I love (see profile), but none make me feel the way Prince and Janet do!
I respect the ingenuity, ThreadBare!  | |

As a fan of modern (80s, 90s) R&B (which is really "R" without any "B"), my tastes revolve around the SUPER PRODUCERS, not so much the artists.
There4 I will purchase anything written & produced by JIMMY JAM & TERRY LEWIS BABYFACE (as both performer and his productions) TEDDY RILEY (altho' he's fallen off in recent years) DALLAS AUSTIN (ditto) JERMAINE DUPRI PUFFY (I can take or leave those guys) TIMBALAND (hasn't MISSed a beat) DARKCHILD (remodelling his sound) THE NEPTUNES (the HOTTEST at the moment) [This message was edited Sun Mar 21 19:32:55 2004 by RonnyRon2000] | |

You love whom???? Just kidding. Tori's a talent. Even this choirboy sat up and took notice upon seeing her "God" video the first time (and the second, third, fourth...). That and "Cornflake Girl" snag my ear every time. The whole anti-Christian thing, though, gets in the way of me actually breaking down and purchasing her stuff. Can't get into stuff that leaves me all conflicted. "I dig the music, but her lyrics are just so against what I live by..." | |
