    Prince wrote hits for other artists too tho

    https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/15-great-prince-songs-that-were-hits-for-other-artists-72421/

    Of course but hit for hit the ones kellz wrote for other people are better and more timeless imo.

    You are not alone, fortunate, I don’t want to, life, I look to you, cry, contagious..etc are all timeless hits while the songs prince wrote for others were more “in the moment” type of songs

    As a musician I agree prince was better but r kelly is clearly a better song writer.

    He wrote songs for mj, usher, Toni Braxton, Celine Deion, Whitney Houston..not to even include his own classics

    R Kelly is not a better song writer than Prince LMFAO

    Are you trolling or are you dead ass? How old are you my nigga smh

    I wouldn’t say Prince’s natural tone is all that great if we’re being honest. He had great technique and easily one of the best falsettos of all time, but if we’re talking his chest voice then that was nothing special. With that being said, R Kelly ekes out a win there.

    Prince is my goat but niggas acting like song writing isn’t up for a debate

    You're missing the point.. this is one of my favorite songs ever.. trust me R Kelly is a savant when it comes to music, that's not up for debate

    But his pen wasn't anything like Prince's.. you have to dig deep in both of their discogs to figure this out.. this seems like such a surface level hot take to me.. if you're gonna argue at least make it make sense

    I just binged both their catalogues in the last couple days which is why I made the comparison. There’s no debate about who was musically and creatively better, obviously prince is. Kellz was limited to one genre while prince could do any genre with ease.

    On the other hand, to me r kelly did a better job of invoking emotion and was a better storyteller with his writing than prince was

    Hmm.. I respect it now that you've broke it down

    Glad people know how to separate the art from the artist.. I still bump Kellz too nigga f*** it

    I’d say Prince, but it’s closer than what people itt are saying. Both genius level artist for different reasons as explained in op.
