I like Alicia. Too bad she flopped. What makes things even sadder is that GOF was the best selling R&B album of 2012 and it only sold 635,000 in the U.S.  Dead at the biggest selling R&B album being less than platinum. Even deader at Usher's Looking 4 2004 being 2nd with 450,000. He didnt even go gold. 

 Even deader at Channel Bottom selling 350,000 despite Frank's massive bandwagon last year and at all the local R&B flops outselling  mf Christina Aguilera's album Voice promo be damned 
(I personally would consider Unapologetic and Unorthodox Jukebox R&B-ish a bit  though tbh)
