  Great article! =)

• BS2011

  Um dumb article. Whats wrong with Dru Hill? Howthe hell yall gonna say that they are corny. Beside Sisqo's (not Cisco) hair care, they came out with a really good album and say what you want, but they were a really good R&B group. Half of this list was kid R&B groups (Immature, ABC, B5, B2K, Subway)so you can't really judge them b/c they only appealed to young girls back then (me included w/ Immature). You can't judge them with adult R&B groups. AND ABC WAS A DAMN RAP GROUP, THEY DIDN'T EVEN SING! And Immature & B2K were they best ones out of the kid groups, but like I said, they appealed to young girls of their time. I usually like site, but yall were wrong for this!!! Who the hell wrote this damn article? Who ever did should have done their research first!!!

• ?!?

  Okay i dont think that the writer meant corny as in there music was bad . i think he meant corny as in like there all dresing alike and doing the most

• Gr8 Dame

  Yo whats corny about Dru Hill??? "Beauty" was one of their best hits along with "We're Not Making Love No More" "Real Freak" the list goes on....
  I also disagree with Color Me Badd... a little. "I Adore Mi Amor" spent 2 weeks at number 2 and stayed on the Billboard 100 for a year. They were a part of the New Jack Swing movement!
  Can't forget about Milli Vanilli. They were corny for not using their real voices but ''Girl You Know Its True" & "Blame it on the rain" was loved by many. Sorry

  This list is ridiculous!!! Like Bodil said, whoever wrote this article should have done their research first.

• Gr8 Dame

  I mean like BS2011 said... do your research b4 u write such articles!!!

• N8

  Granted some of these groups were corny some of em i was feelin they voice i aint gonna name any cuz yall jus waitin on the chance to crack jokes but some of these groups were doin there thing

• tracey

  Whoever came up with this list have too much time on their hands. Most of these groups sound better than what is out here today. I mean really you have kid groups mixed in with adult groups. For the record those guys in Subway could sing.

• thinker

  wrong about: Immature & Dru Hill

  right about: all the rest of'm

  please revise article and repost, & add "All 4 One"

• http://Khemistry8501@yahoo.com Allblueverything

  Damn, dru hill made the list, but NEXT didn't? C'mon son!

• http://bossip.com Allblueverything

  As sucessful and talented as they are, boyz II men were kinda corny too.

• DJ Shawn Touch

  DUDE In DRS singing Gangsta lean did look a little like Ricky Smiley's " Lil Darryl" but other than that, this was mid to late 90's you can look at it today and see how they was dressed and things and say now hey that was corny, but at that time that was the style. i agree with all above comments though, half these artist you mentioned is better than most of the artist that are put on today. If anything some of todays group were probably influenced by some of these artist that you call corny.

• Diamond_Bmore

  Yall Played With Dru Hill...They Were Never Corny

• jj

  dru hill was corny to me as well. i always thought they were the oddest looking group of guys with a corny swag but i will admit, they made good music.

• blk kng&queen

  The writer of this article Randy Roper is a CERTIFIED HATER!! Half of these groups were very great and appealed to their fans!! It seems this article was written by a usual insecure male that used to call all of them gay cause all the ladies were feelin them and he couldnt compare or had enough talent to compete so this is his revenge against them!! Now yes some i might can agree about Color Me Badd but this entire article is written from a hater perspective!! B2K,Dru Hill and etc were somewhat successful

• penny

  They were all corny but I loved them anyway... except B5- I don't know who the hell they are.

• Thelma

  Horrible jounalism if i do say so my self!I can make a much better article with more though out banter then that.Corny groups make corny music so by that account why is Dru Hil on the list.You know you like dru hill and the thong song was a hit i dont know where you lived.I think i got a couple good ones.you guys had some good ones just tweeked the list a bit
  1.h-town those were some dl brothas
  2.color me badd I'm all for mixed groups but they were just like the ugliest of each race.
  3.LSG I liked the idea they just had to much ego for one group
  4.Next they was iight just off
  5.Milli vanilli if not for the fake voices for the fake hair whyyy???
  6.Jarule and ashanti he was thug singin and she was moaning
  7.Pretty ricky No words
  8.Public announcement they were just to hideous to make it
  thats all i can think of thats with no research come on guys do better next time!!

  Add Perfect Gentleman...had a song called Ooh La La in 1990. Corn*****.

• Victoria

  i think this was hilarious, didn't take it all that serious... @Jeanene i have to admit as a little girl i wanted to marry perfect gentlemen... oh hindsight lol!

• G Howe Black

  Wow. Can people read? Vanilla Ice was a group? And R&B? NICE

• Christielove1468

  @G Howe Black: F.Y.I Although i already knew that Vanilla Ice was not a group, he was a rapper who did hip hop and rap rock during the 90s. The media labeled Vanilla Ice labeled as Blue Eyed Soul(R&B) . Yes, i not only did read the article in entirety but my opinion is my opinion and my right,,Ok?

• JustAshley

  Okay why the eff was Dru Hill on this freakin list? Somebody need to be played on suspension. "Beauty is Her name" April Shows" Somebodies Sleeping In my Bed".....WTH were ya'll thinkin?

• reena

  Yall are buggin Dru Hill was Far from corny...Get your facts straight and they were extra talented

• Big Ryde

  I don't really have an opinion on this list but to say the Lil ABC boyz were a rap group, but Randy my question is in the beginning you said that Trey Songs, Usher, Chris Brown and R. Kelly is keeping male R&B popular than ever? If its so popular why is it just those 4 dudes that are relevant? Just 4 male singers that eating out here! The 90's had all kinds of male R&B artists that was in rotation! Now its just 4! "Shrug"

• Vampire Bill

  The worst you can say about Milli Vanilli is that the one dude looks too much like Venus Williams.

• Tonto Kawalski

  YOU SAY WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT SOME OF THOSE GROUPS, BUT THE MUSIC BACK IN THE 90'S WAS WAY BETTER THAN THE CRAP POLLUTING THE AIRWAVES NOW. AND HATING ON DRU HILL IS REDICULOUS WHEN YOU DIDNT MENTION MICHAEL JACKSON'S NEPHEWS. NOW THAT WAS A CRAPPY AND GHAY LOOKING GROUP.

• Marry berry

  I agree!!! with everyone!! U would put dru hill before u put public annoucement and Next? U forget 112 do cha? Not saying that they were corny, but c'mon!! This is what music is soo trash becuz of credits are idiot's . Next ur going to say Beyonce is a has-been..=/

• Captious1

  This was an entertaining list until I got to the B2K listing. Making a joke about molestation - in the poorest taste possible. You need to be checked for that one.

• Shaunita

  WTF how in the hell is Dru Hill gonna be on this list???? Maybe hiphopwired is the one thats corny and WHACK...who the hell reads this any? This isnt vibe fools

• Muffy

  This list corny. Dru Hill? Really? Those guys are talented and they made good music. Who would put Day 26 and Dru Hill on the same list? Day 26 is lame, Dru Hill is not. I'm not a huge fan of Pretty Rickey, believe me, but I do like a few of their songs. I would even agree with them and Day 26 making the list, but not the rest. Hell, not even Color Me Badd should make this list. I don't care about B5 either way. All you did was make a bunch of gay jokes. Lame.

• Muffy

  typo fixed: This list is corny.

• Tricia

  The person writing this article is corny!!! You don't know ish about RnB history...next!!!

• lol123

  If they all so corny why did you take the time out to even think about them.

• lol123

  And most of these groups paved a way for Chris brown. if im not mistaken wasn't Micheal Jackson his idol and didn't he start out in a group. And b5,b2k,immature,dru hill have good music u just have to listen to them.So don't judge

• Blue Skye

  How do you mess up DRS twice after the name is right there? All the hating and very little proofreading? Come on now.

• fefe

  Dru Hill do not need to be on the list! Check your list and check it twice. Thank you!!:(

• fefe

  I loved DRS it TAKES me back, bu they were a ONE HIT WONDER!:)

• fefe

  Pretty Ricky wasn't corny, just the way they dressed!:(
