This is based on vocal talent alone mainly the groups harmonies and each members individual vocal ability.

Mine would have to be

1)Boyz II Men
2)Silk
3)Shai
4)Riff
5)Dru Hill

What do you guys think?

Vocals huh....Then I can't put some of my favorite groups like Tony Toni Tone or Mint Condition in this...LOL. Anyways, your list is gonna be very similar to mine.

So based on harmonies/individual voices, I'm gonna have to say:

1. Boyz II Men
2. Take 6
3. Silk
4. Riff
5. Dru Hill

Honorable Mention: Shai, Jodeci, Portrait, New Edition.




As for the girls groups:

Brownstone got the best harmony, followed by probably Xscape. Cant think of the other 3 at the moment.

Take 6 is a pretty solid choice. Those guys have a lot of strength as an a capella group and have some of Brian McKnight's siblings... helping them a bit :).

Yea, for me, my list is the same as ilikeits. I know it's boring lol, but when I think of group vocals, those are the three that immediately come to mind. Shai's performance on If I Ever Fall In Love is great and they have shown they have no fear of going a capella. The other two groups well... are obvious. Boyz II Men's power is tremendous and Take 6 is the definitive a capella group.

In addition, I would like to give sixth place to A Few Good Men. "Have I never" is my favorite 90's song.

H-Town's a good choice. I really enjoy a lot of their stuff and think Dino can sing pretty well.

I think his album would have been good had he not died.

Agreed, he was really talented and the R&B world lost a great one in him.
