Are you kidding?! "Dangerously In Love" was 80% R&B... Speechless, Dangerously In Love II, Signs, Daddy, etc..

You're right. I take that back. Naughty boy was pretty R&B-ish and I mean Kitty Kat could have been huge

if beyonces r&b, then so is adele, and adele outsold bey with one album so I guess adele is the real queen of r&b.

That's a reach.

No artist in the past 20 years has done anything sonically innovative and/or long-lasting to even be considered for any title.

1) It's Naughty Girl

2) Kitty Kat was on B'Day and the size of the hit it could have been doesn't have anything to do with this conversation

But wait 4 didn't smash on the r&b charts .. I was mad because 4 is the perfect r&b album

According to Billboard, Mary J. Blige was the most successful female R&B artist of the past 25 years. That was just three years ago.

I voted yes but think that honestly it's Mary J. Blige (but there was no option that favoured that so...)

Beyonce is perhaps the most famous and popular R&B singer but she doesn't own it the way that Mary J. Blige does.

Stop generalizing. Rihanna is definetly NOT r&b. Beyonce is a pop star who has r&b songs, but she's more pop and she's definetly not the queen of r&b. India arie, jill scott and alicia keys are real r&b artists. Beyonce is not. She's more known for her pop smashes, her beauty, her relationship to jay z and her undeniable talent.

It had the Year-End #1 US R&B song on it, Love On Top which was #1 for six weeks.

Alicia Keys is clearly is the Queen of R&B. Alicia sold more albums and No One is more successful than any of Beyonce singles. Alicia is the most successful R&B Female Artist of our generation.
