Look, a lot can be said and has been said of this artist’s legal trouble (to put it mildly). However, there is no denying the man had a knack for writing songs (The Closet opus?). At this time, he was everywhere on the R&B scene. This one is arguably his biggest track, and it has remained a major song to this day, so much so that I still hear my kids sing the chorus every now and then. Coming in at #2 is I Believe I Can Fly by R. Kelly.
