    usher had a stronger prime than r kelly so lets get that out the way rn!

    Hmm bigger commercially maybe but r kelly was making hits for others, producing, writing

    He’s prob a better full artist man

    Like Confessions is probably the best album
    Urban Hang Suite Maxwell is probably the best vocals
    But I don’t know who I would say is definitively the GOAT albums/hits/impact/longevity wise

    He prob right as sad as it is

    Give him some time we’ll see who still around a decade from now

    Nah he’s not right

    A big part of what makes people a fan of an artist is the relatability factor and seeing the human side of them. Even someone as corporate and sanitized as Sabrina Carpenter for example has a human factor to her image that attracts people.

    A.I pop doesn’t have that. There’s no uniqueness or anything remotely relatable about it. It looks and sounds like a CEO typing into a prompt, because it is. Timbo released a snippet of a song from his new “A.I Artist” and it literally sounded like a diet Tyla/Jhene Akio. People will never gravitate towards something that corporate upfront.

    I’ve seen some oldheads gravitate towards it, because they’re still bitter that they were wrong about autotune and they think this is another case of that. But autotune has always strictly been a creative tool. A creative tool that can be misused, but a tool nonetheless. It’s not a tool that can be used entirely by itself without the human factor involved.

    You looking at it from a current perspective I think long term they’ll end up semi right

    Not everyone gives a f*** about it like we do that’s the sad truth
