Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm confused. You think Rihanna is underrated? I feel like she gets more credit than she deserves lol.

Otherwise, the names I recognize seem pretty good fits. I'm debating back and forth on Jaheim though I think he's real talented (I just don't know how much credit he's given already).

To add to the list, Tony Rich! He's my main man and I feel like every album he's put out is solid from beginning to end.

gotta agree on joe. he's just very consistent with the quality he brings with each album(though i'd wish he'd write/produce more these days but o well). not only that but every album of his shows a different side of him.

other artists who are underrated include craig david, javier, and marques houston.

Marques Houston is garbage lol. Javier is definately underrated though.

How about Urban Mystic? He is pretty talented and has a voice that is nothing if not unique.

Urban Mystic's voice reminds me a lot of K-Ci's. Still, I like his stuff. I found "I Refuse" a long ways back and then just forgot about him.

He has a terrible girl voice. His dancing is worse and he can't act. He is just a pretty boy with no talent that is being used because of sex appeal.

Javier is not Underrated, but he's not Overrated as well...he's actually on the middle side between Over and under!

He's a good singer though some of his songs was not on hits but still he's a really good singer!If u just listen very closely to his voice, tone, creativity and criticize it...u'll notice that he's good!but I know he's not a whole package of a star performer!.........

Whoa hold on... Marques Houston is not garbage. First of all dancing and acting are irrevelent in this subjuct cuz it should just refer to HIS music. Plus i've only seen 2 videos where he dances outta maybe a dozen. Although he doesn't have the best voice, it's definatey above average. Plus, sex appeal comes with the territory of R&B. Ever heard of D'angelo or R. Kelly or Usher? Not only that, but he's been in the game since New Jack swing in the group Immature/IMX(as the lead singer no doubt). And he's been successful with 2 gold albums with the group and a solo album that went gold(not to mention his last album debuted at #1).

Did you really use that tool in the same sentence as R Kelly and D'angelo? The fact that he has gold albums proves nothing. Immature was a group that was made to appeal to 12 year old girls, hes garbage and I hope he never records another song.

Sorry Bunky, but MH is garbage. Garbage is actually an overstatement. Immature/IMX or whatever they call themselves were garbage too.

And please...MH shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as the two artists you named (see! i couldnt even do it myself....its disrespectful towards them).


Im gonna have to c/s Joe being underrated and add to the list, Jill Scott.

I am going to have to add Riff to this list. Why they didn't become a staple in the game is beyond me.

They had all the talent you could want in a group, solid songs, and a HUGE push from the movie "Lean On Me" with Morgan Freeman.

Any comments?
