Otis Redding died before he really made a mark too.

Has some great songs but not enough work to be in top 10
 
MJ
Kellz
Maxwell
Usher
Marvin
Chris Brown
Miquel
Musiq
Ginuwine
KC
 
:foh5:

Otis had 6 albums before he died and 16 top 20 r&b hits to go w/ it.

Don't disrespect one the greats like that
Majority of the tracks are just covers of other ppls songs.

Was common for artists to do back then.

Otis is great. I have an Otis playlist myself but his small body of work cant ccompare to the decades put in by other legends

DAngelo
Maxwell

Otis got more albums(he did when he was alive) then either one of em and more top 20 R&B singles then either one.

And I'm not even including his posthumous albums and singles.

Otis got plenty of work

Brian McKnight in my top 10 off voice alone idgaf. That nigga can sing forreal and not to mention plays multiple instruments and produces his own music.

Homie is underrated if anything

I forgot Charlie Wilson.

The Gap Band had some hits and he did ok when he went solo.

I have a Charlie Wilson Greatest Hits CD.

But he's mostly known for Outstanding.
