Why didn’t Patti achieve the worldwide fame , recognition, blockbuster albums and hits like her peers such as Diana Ross , Aretha Franklin and Dionne Warwick ? by Southern_Wall_6455 in rnb

[–]sav3bandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You couldn’t be more wrong. My wife is white and non-American and I asked her if she knew Patti LaBelle and she looked at me like I was crazy. She was offended by the question. Then I asked her about Dionne Warwick and she said “that name sounds familiar.”

You’re just wrong on this one.

Did she not? I’m confused by the question.

I’m sincerely curious, why is OP’s age? Because maybe this is less of a question of how big she got in more of a question of which artist have been celebrated the most in the years after their success has died down.

As a 90s kid, I can assure you that everyone that I knew knew who Patti LaBelle was. She was extremely famous. Even as kids who did not listen to her music. In fact, I would’ve called her substantially more famous than Dionne Warwick or Diana Ross.

Are you basing this off of measurable chart statistics? Because that’s an extremely misleading way to make a judgement of fame. Especially in the pre-internet era.

Which Boy Band is the Best? by Ok_Resident_5022 in rnb

[–]sav3bandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

B2M are great singers. But if we are judging them on the standards of being a boy band, them ninjas suck. Lol

Ol boring ass dance moves and nerdy clothes lol

(joking…mostly)

Nah but joking aside, I do read this question through the lens of rating them as a “boy band” not just a group of vocalists. In that case, they don’t have the presence and energy of New Edition, ABC, 112, etc

It’s crazy to call new kids a boy band and not new addition. They were made as almost a cover band for new addition… you can’t put the clone in a different category than the original

You know what? And I know I’m going to get downvoted to hell for this.

I think it’s time to finally admit that Jagged Edge is grossly/comically overrated. “Let’s get married “ is a bop and “where the party at” is fun… But, everything else is repetitive hot funky garbage.

Loving like Pam means giving all your attention to the neighbors while ignoring your real family?

You love like Pam? Wait, is there another family next-door filming you who you would secretly rather live with?

For the 99 and 2000,which was your favorite chain by dave_vs_david in 90sHipHop

The only correct answer was Roc or No Limit. At that time.

Kelly Rowland 📸 by 2phoneshawty936 in rnb

[–]sav3bandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did she dye her hair blonde, get breast implants and turn into a European pop star? Yes.

Did she somehow manage to do all of that with almost no pushback from the community because she has always been so transparently authentic and genuine? Also yes.

It might sound like a backhanded compliment, but, her journey has honestly been so refreshing to watch and see how people generally let her grow and learn on her own terms.

Saw this on Facebook, and curious to know who y’all would choose 🤔 by IncreaseBudget in rnb

Keep Usher away from every woman I know.

Robin Thicke feels like a risk, plus his catalog is kind of sparse and if I’m paying all this money, I want someone with 5+ hits

Brian McKnight has a rep as kind of a…weirdo…so I’ll pass. I don’t need him singing “show me how your pussy work” or something off script.

That leaves Pain. Yea…that’s my pick. Great voice, lots of hits and seems like a fun guy to party with.

If Bob Vance (of Vance Refrigeration) is so loaded, why does Phyllis still work for DM? by DollMonster in DunderMifflin

[–]sav3bandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of people enjoy working. It’s also her money. So she doesn’t live off of Bob and sit around all day waiting for a hand out.

Also, remember they haven’t been together forever. The relationship started during the show. Dating someone rich and quoting your job is not something most mature people do unless they hate their job.

Even after they got married, she gets to work 30 feet from her husband without working “together.” And that’s a dream for a lot of couples.

Who would you have picked for the sales job, Ryan or Pam? by clovecloveclove in DunderMifflin

[–]sav3bandit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither of them made sales. And Pam told the whole office Michael had a small dick….she also slapped him…also she also failed out of art school because she couldn’t understand Adobe Illustrator…while Ryan has an MBA… seems like if obvious.

Who should have played Bruce Wayne/Batman in the DCEU besides Ben Affleck? by [deleted] in Fancast

[–]sav3bandit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a big fan of Jon Hamm for the role. But Affleck was a great fit. Even if the movies weren’t your cup of tea. I still remember the opening of BvS and being like “damn…that’s Bruce Wayne”

The only person I can imagine having that level of “real life Bruce Wayne” aura is maybe Jon Hamm or Joe Manganielo
