nope. R. Kelly will always be the shit. Who cares about the under age, who cares about the Jay drama. R. Kelly is THE alltime best RnB, and ain't no one gonna do what he did for the 90's and early 00's.

And Mase - well thats personal preference... I still like his flow, and he didn't fall off he quit, and came back with 100% different mentality, so course all his old fans don't like him. Unless you're like me and listen to secular and christian rap.

Cats who fell off:
- Cannibus... from one of the illest, to MIA. (I know he got a new album, but pleeeaaaase....
- Mos Def... from one of the illest with Blackstarr to whatever that gay ass movie he was just in...


Cats who never should have got on:
- Game.... he'll always be the groupie he first was playin the back of Gunit videos...
- Freeway... Maybe if rap wasn't about rhyming and was just random spoken word and gruntin.
- Bizzarre (was he ever on??)

Cats who never got on (I mean REALLY got on), but should have:
- Cunninglynsguists... seriously the best lyricists no one knows.
- Masta Ace... No one even knew his name outside New York before he retired. Damn shame.


Theres hella more I missed.... But thats off the top.
