Anyone who has listened to today's R&B can't say that it is as good as the R&B of yesteryear.  There are some really good singers, but can they compare to singers 20 years ago, and even worse they can't compare to singers 30 or 40 years ago.  The answer is a big N.O.!  Today the most popular singer is R.Kelly, and he boasts that he is the King of R&B.  He flaunts his riches and his swagger as though he his the greatest singer in the world.  The problem with this, is the fact that he didn't start calling himself that until after Luther Vandross died.

Luther Vandross was without a doubt the greatest R&B Crooner of the last 30 years.  And when Luther came to the stage, Marvin Gaye was still here, Jefferey Osborne, Lou Rawls, Teddy Pendergrass and Stevie Wonder were still performing.  Today you can't even count five R&B Singers who are in this category.  You tell me who is the Greatest go to facebook kssm killeen.
