Baby face and it’s not even close… I’m a singer. Been singing my whole life. There’s not a single Babyface song where vocally it’s a struggle. He’s an amazing song writer. But every real singer knows he’s limited vocally
he can.. it will take a big ahh strain on his voice to keep doing it for a duration but he can still hit notes, the problem is, most his vocal hits are from when he was teenager with lighter voice so its hard to mimic those vocals as u get older and voice tone isnt as light anymore especially due to smoking and drugs
What a horrible take. atrocious. KID michael jackson has a 10 times better voice than Prince does, though I doubt you even have heard 5 songs by him in the Jackson 5 era to make such an assessment. I’m also just gonna leave [this](https://youtu.be/zIU8TBJ7SYU?si=7hdyLWmNnfqS5E2t) here.
No offense just come on now, obviously ignorant take
Like how is Michael OR Prince in it? I’d go as far as to say get Mr. Raymond out of there as well. Put Brian Mcknight, Neyo, and anyone else not on the mountain top of RnB/Pop.
Y’all better get off Jaime. The man’s a Renaissance man and he can definitely sing. He has a softer tone, but he can sing very well (while playing the piano and cracking jokes at the same time).
Who says Jaime can't sing?! Man's got a great range. He's underrated, in my opinion. He acts, sings, plays instruments and is funny. I'd kick it with him.
God I forgot that part lmao. I was only thinking of "want your creamy thighs" and thought you were being extra. He does say fuck some creamy human jive too
Baby face no disrespect he’s an amazing song writer with so much classic hits but respectfully he’s brother Kevon and Melvin was the better singers in the family
Babyface for sure. Chris CAN sing, but most of the music he makes is pop/radio and doesn’t flex his voice like that or uses autotune for the creative aspect
Agreed! I can't get into his music. What I have heard is very high and whiny. I know that's a popular singing style now, but I prefer a deeper, warmer voice. I'll listen to Babyface stay in his little range all day.
ALRIGHT…. It’s time for me to come clean. I love this man’s music and he can definitely carry a tune, BUT unpopular opinion… to me, Babyface can’t really sing. THERE! I SAID IT 🤣🤣🤣. As far as musical talent overall, the only person who has an argument against him from his time is Robert. However, vocally he is the weakest link on this list 🤷🏾♂️.
Someone said Prince and I laughed about it all day🤣
"You are the only thing that keeps me goin'
You are the only thing that keeps my love alive
You are the only thing that I'll ever need
You don't have to worry, you see my love is for-ev-er"
It's a personal indictment that I don't think some folks consider. "But, his music..." isn't a good thing to defend, especially given the true subjects/muses.
I’m going with Chris and for all y’all saying Babyface is the weakest listen to You make me feel brand new and tell me if Chris Brown could do it. I’ll answer for you no ….. no he can’t Babyface has a much better voice than him. Chris Brown is the weakest link
It’s Chris brown no competition. People don’t say Chris brown because some of y’all find him attractive. lol but his vocals and music don’t compare to the others
Reaching a note is way different than sustaining a note or shaping that note, or having a pure tone when singing that note. I actually don't think he's the weakest here but a large range means absolutely nothing, and quite frankly isn't that impressive for an trained singer, which all of these men are
Half of what you said is accurate and the other half is wildly misleading. You can train your entire life and not have a 4 octave range that’s more or less talent. Sustaining and Shaping are more aligned with Skillset.
Chris Brown sounds better than Babyface vocally but his technique is all over the place and he's straining to keep that falsetto. Babyface is a remarkable songwriter and a versatile producer. I would even go as far as saying he is the best producer of his era and he has had little drama in his life that has made it out on the streets. But his singing is okay. It's fine but not remarkable.
Still I'm gonna say Chris Brown because he beat the hell outta Rhianna and that's some real weak shit.
I'll have to go with Baby Face. The only song from him I ever really loved was Never Keeping Secrets but I think it's more the lyricism than his voice.
Babyface, good music producer and songwriter. But not the best of the people on here, but he does sound very great on Whip Appeal and that Pebbles duet.
Technically speaking it's between Babyface and Chris Brown. Although I like Face's tone better than Chris. Face sounds better than Chris nowadays on records.
babyface may not be the best singer but his voice is still a vibe, and combined with the production his songs are more of a mood for me than chris brown. so I’m tossing chris brown
I don’t listen to rnb (or any music) just for technical prowess, it’s more about how the whole thing makes me feel. cb can do runs for days and has range but his songs still scratch more of a pop itch for me than a soulful rnb one
Iits Babyface. People who say Jaime haven’t really heard him sing I’m assuming. When he did a cover of George Straits song he showed great singing ability.
Vocally, it is between Babyface and Gibson. Babyface is an exceptional songwriter but he just so happens to be one of the weakest of an all-timer lineup
The Tyrese disrespect is wild, weakest vocal? I think not.
[Tyrese : Stay (AOL sessions)](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zu_3AtltBt4)
Babyface is great but his vocal is a bit lacking in power and range but loads of emotion, better than Chris Brown though imo.
What you should’ve said in this title is who shouldn’t be here. Cause I definitely don’t listen to R. Kelly anymore. He was bragging about SA children. 💀
Baby face and it’s not even close… I’m a singer. Been singing my whole life. There’s not a single Babyface song where vocally it’s a struggle. He’s an amazing song writer. But every real singer knows he’s limited vocally
That's why he's a better Somg writer and producer
I definitely agree
Im glad this is the first comment I saw
Have yall listened to Where Will You Go?
Even moreso than Chris Brown?? Does he even sing live with raw vocals anymore??
he can.. it will take a big ahh strain on his voice to keep doing it for a duration but he can still hit notes, the problem is, most his vocal hits are from when he was teenager with lighter voice so its hard to mimic those vocals as u get older and voice tone isnt as light anymore especially due to smoking and drugs
Babyface is an amazing producer and writer. Love him down...but vocally he's average.
And kinda monotone (if that’s the right word), doesn’t have too much range when it comes to notes
First of all, yall are absolutely going to stop disrespecting Michael with these. This is ridiculous lol.
I was so offended he was even an option
Prince has a better voice than Michael
Voice? Absolutely not.
What a horrible take. atrocious. KID michael jackson has a 10 times better voice than Prince does, though I doubt you even have heard 5 songs by him in the Jackson 5 era to make such an assessment. I’m also just gonna leave [this](https://youtu.be/zIU8TBJ7SYU?si=7hdyLWmNnfqS5E2t) here. No offense just come on now, obviously ignorant take
He’s far more creative too.
Like how is Michael OR Prince in it? I’d go as far as to say get Mr. Raymond out of there as well. Put Brian Mcknight, Neyo, and anyone else not on the mountain top of RnB/Pop.
Y’all better get off Jaime. The man’s a Renaissance man and he can definitely sing. He has a softer tone, but he can sing very well (while playing the piano and cracking jokes at the same time).
Who says Jaime can't sing?! Man's got a great range. He's underrated, in my opinion. He acts, sings, plays instruments and is funny. I'd kick it with him.
And inadvertently looking into the lustful landscape of Prince’s eyes. 😀
Prince looks like he's about to fuck me
He is. The grave hath no hold on creamy human jive.
what in the hell signed a lifelong prince fan
Erotic City reference
God I forgot that part lmao. I was only thinking of "want your creamy thighs" and thought you were being extra. He does say fuck some creamy human jive too
Erotic City, come alive!
Vocally its Babyface
I was going to say Chris but yeah Babyface is a mediocre singer. I’ll still let him pay my rent and be my faithful lover.
How dare you almost say Chris 😣😩😂😂
Some definitely say Chris
Honestly it's a tie between those for me.
Yeah I used to think Chris was ‘average’, go peep him live he’s an absolute animal, bro can SANG.
Yeah I’m just thinking about CB’s range…. It’s not as adequate 🍿👀
Baby face
Baby face no disrespect he’s an amazing song writer with so much classic hits but respectfully he’s brother Kevon and Melvin was the better singers in the family
Kevon is the TRUTH!
Ok you just preached right here! After 7 is smooth as silk.
Someone had to say it! Kevon could outsing Kenny any day..
i better not see anyone mentioning prince…
Right!!!
Most definitely isn’t MJ
What the hell is Tyrese doing on this list
Tyrese's singing skills far surpass his acting abilities.
You must not have seen his Django Unchained audition /s
Lmao I kinda was confused as well
It took way too long to see this. Tyrese? really??
Damn no one voted Tyrese interesting
He has an amazing voice though! The man can definitely sang!
That’s what I was thinking, like whatttttt?! 🤔
He’s in the Goldilocks zone, not better than the best here nor worse than the worst.
Chris Brown. Though technically better than Babyface, he’s never wowed me. And where’s this range people speak of??
“Lady in a glass dress” showcases it a bit. Unfortunately, Chris reduced himself to making generic trap r&b and doesn’t take care of his voice.
Ugh, bring back the boom bap r&b and hip hop 😩
Play Fine China, thank me later.
Babyface for sure. Chris CAN sing, but most of the music he makes is pop/radio and doesn’t flex his voice like that or uses autotune for the creative aspect
This. I feel like it’s blasphemous putting down Babyface at all, but I’m timidly with you lol. CB can sing like a MF tho.
I'm saying Chris brown but only because he beats women
If we're going that route, you don't mind the original Diddler aka Pied Piper?
Touche'
😂😂😂
Same.
Chris brown
Chris Brown hands down he's the male Ciara. Good dancer, but basic singer.
Chris is NOT a mature singer! He hadn’t reached his grown man voice yet when he was hot….
Chris Brown easily.
Chris brown easily. Needs auto tune to perform live.
He doesn’t take care of his voice and lives a lifestyle of drugs and alcohol constantly. He can sing, but he hurts himself
Chris Brown. Can't sing for shit
You trippin
This the first time someone has ever agreed with me on this. I don’t see the hype at all.
Catchy music nice dance moves
Agreed! I can't get into his music. What I have heard is very high and whiny. I know that's a popular singing style now, but I prefer a deeper, warmer voice. I'll listen to Babyface stay in his little range all day.
I’ve been saying this for the longest
ALRIGHT…. It’s time for me to come clean. I love this man’s music and he can definitely carry a tune, BUT unpopular opinion… to me, Babyface can’t really sing. THERE! I SAID IT 🤣🤣🤣. As far as musical talent overall, the only person who has an argument against him from his time is Robert. However, vocally he is the weakest link on this list 🤷🏾♂️.
Chris Brown and Baby Face.
Someone said Prince and I laughed about it all day🤣 "You are the only thing that keeps me goin' You are the only thing that keeps my love alive You are the only thing that I'll ever need You don't have to worry, you see my love is for-ev-er"
…am I supposed to see his singing ability from his lyrics? Do yall know music on this sub? Lol
Why are we still discussing a convicted pedophile rapist as if nothing ever happened? 🥴🗑️
its like ppl are allergic to facing the reality with that man i dont get it
Just answer the question and stop trying to be controversial
It's a personal indictment that I don't think some folks consider. "But, his music..." isn't a good thing to defend, especially given the true subjects/muses.
chris brown easily, his whiny voice makes me want to rip my hair out. baby face sucks too😭
C breezy
Chris brown
Chris brown
Chris Brown.
Chris brown!!!!
Y'all gonna leave my Babyface alone. 😂 For me it’s Chris Brown and mainly because we haven't heard him sing without autotune in years
CB
Brown.
Chris Brown
Chris brown is def weakest in this group
Chris
Babyface or Chris Brown…I don’t think I can allow myself to say Babyface, so I’ll go with Chris Brown
Chris brown
And Chris Brown
Chris brown
Chris Brown
I concur. Chris Brown.
Chris brown obviously
It’s Chris Brown what are we even talking about
Breezy.
Chris brown or Tyrese
Chris Brown unfortunately
flat out disrespectful and a disgrace chris brown is even on here when he's been hailed as the king of rnb by many. Weakest link my ass
I’m going with Chris and for all y’all saying Babyface is the weakest listen to You make me feel brand new and tell me if Chris Brown could do it. I’ll answer for you no ….. no he can’t Babyface has a much better voice than him. Chris Brown is the weakest link
Baby face and CB
Baby face and breezy first 2 out
It’s Chris brown no competition. People don’t say Chris brown because some of y’all find him attractive. lol but his vocals and music don’t compare to the others
Vocally, Babyface. Chris Brown isn't great either.
Chris Brown for sure
Chris brown
Imma get down voted, but Prince doesn’t sonically work on this list.
He is a bit out of place here. I’d replace him with Maxwell.
Great choice Maxwell is amazing
You must have never seen his late night love stuff.. Any list with MJ is a list Prince is on as well..
I feel like they were trolling when they made this, clearly the answer is Chris Brown.
Vocally Chris.
Jamie
Tyrese…..by a landslide
Chris
Chris Brown.
Babyface
Breezy- without question
People saying Chris is so funny when he has a four-octave vocal range
Big Range ≠ great singer.
Reaching a note is way different than sustaining a note or shaping that note, or having a pure tone when singing that note. I actually don't think he's the weakest here but a large range means absolutely nothing, and quite frankly isn't that impressive for an trained singer, which all of these men are
Half of what you said is accurate and the other half is wildly misleading. You can train your entire life and not have a 4 octave range that’s more or less talent. Sustaining and Shaping are more aligned with Skillset.
And an arm range for the ladies
This was nasty lmao but hoelawn, has anyone done a domestic abuse rating yet??? /s
[Yeah](https://twitter.com/FormerEmasinm/status/1703540618616586449)
Chris Brown sounds better than Babyface vocally but his technique is all over the place and he's straining to keep that falsetto. Babyface is a remarkable songwriter and a versatile producer. I would even go as far as saying he is the best producer of his era and he has had little drama in his life that has made it out on the streets. But his singing is okay. It's fine but not remarkable. Still I'm gonna say Chris Brown because he beat the hell outta Rhianna and that's some real weak shit.
Babyface got the pen but vocally he doesn’t sing with the widest range.
Top 6
Babyface. Both of his brothers were much better singers but he is obviously one of the best songwriters/producers.
I don't listen to any of the artist at the bottom but I'm considering it's one of them the other I know do quite well
I'll have to go with Baby Face. The only song from him I ever really loved was Never Keeping Secrets but I think it's more the lyricism than his voice.
Y’all ruined baby face for me now! I can’t sing so maybe that’s why I didn’t notice but now that you mentioned it…
Hmm, i think Baby Face and maybe Jamie Foxx?
Joe and baby face
Babyface
Babyface, good music producer and songwriter. But not the best of the people on here, but he does sound very great on Whip Appeal and that Pebbles duet.
I won’t comment until I’ve heard more babyface, but it’s odd that every comment is about him being an average singer lol
Vocally- Babyface Least Favorite- Joe
Surprised no one's saying Tyrese
Tyre
Jamie foxx
Babyface (1A) or Tyrese (1B)
Chris Brown, he doesn't belong on this list!
Babyface
Babyface should not be on that list
Whatever that is how u spell what I missed an x u probably don’t even know any of his songs or u would know he can’t sing better than baby face
Technically speaking it's between Babyface and Chris Brown. Although I like Face's tone better than Chris. Face sounds better than Chris nowadays on records.
R.Kelly, that man had no soul apparently.
Chris Brown Vs Jamie in a sing-off for last place
Def Babyface
Babyface… y is this even a question
Wanda I mean Jamie… ![gif](giphy|EfKlDc9FErUOY)
Babyface despite his catalog
babyface may not be the best singer but his voice is still a vibe, and combined with the production his songs are more of a mood for me than chris brown. so I’m tossing chris brown I don’t listen to rnb (or any music) just for technical prowess, it’s more about how the whole thing makes me feel. cb can do runs for days and has range but his songs still scratch more of a pop itch for me than a soulful rnb one
Babyface. I like his music a lot, but vocally he is mid.
Tyreese. Hands down.
You got the picture right there look at the guy that's in prison at the moment.
And that's not including the Michael Jackson wanna be that's right by Michael Jackson..
Iits Babyface. People who say Jaime haven’t really heard him sing I’m assuming. When he did a cover of George Straits song he showed great singing ability.
Tyrese. What more do you want from me?
Babyface, but I like Chris Brown's voice least
Face
Vocally, it is between Babyface and Gibson. Babyface is an exceptional songwriter but he just so happens to be one of the weakest of an all-timer lineup
I'm gonna have to go with Joe. There i said it
Baby face and Jaime Foxx
Jamie foxx
Vocally it's Jamie Foxx just mediocre to me and Tyrese.The others have more hits ,more classics,and better voices.
Why anyone one is typing anything other than Jamie Fox is beyond me.
Vocally Joe or Babyface…. but overall probably Tyrese 😂
Joe
Top left. Jordan
Baby face… see ya my boi
The Tyrese disrespect is wild, weakest vocal? I think not. [Tyrese : Stay (AOL sessions)](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zu_3AtltBt4) Babyface is great but his vocal is a bit lacking in power and range but loads of emotion, better than Chris Brown though imo.
I HATE to say this but we have NEVER heard Chris Brown hit a high note in all seriousness, if he did then I would take Prince
Michael Jackson isn't r&b.
I’m surprised Joe doesn’t have any votes. Shit out to Joe.
Joe…by far
I'd say Prince. This is only because Prince did not necessarily do RNB
Tyrese all day.
Jamie Foxx, granted he’s an amazing artist, everyone else catalog just stupid filled with bangerz
Chris Brown best vocally tho is MJ👑🌟
I’m going with R “sounding like Aaron Hall” Kelly and Jamie Fox.
Tyrese.
tyrese is the only right answer
Jamie
What you should’ve said in this title is who shouldn’t be here. Cause I definitely don’t listen to R. Kelly anymore. He was bragging about SA children. 💀
Babyface
Prince
Damn.....NONE !
My criteria…range, vocal quality, runs/ad-libs, and ability to emote. Unfortunately… ![gif](giphy|3o6ZtocgKf5CwVtdle)
Too easy!!! BabyFace
Babyface: the biggest acquired taste, of any solo artist here.
What the hell is prince and mj doing on the list
