Top 10 'Classic' R&B
I was just searching through the Top 10 thread for a Classic R&B thread and couldn't find one. I've got a Wedding coming up where they've asked for a section so thought i'd come on here for some inspiration, but non to be found.
Is anyone pretty good with this genre - I've got an idea of the sort of tracks i.e. Nelly - Dilema, Hot in Herre, Lauryn Hill - Doo wop, Flo Rida - Low, R Kelly - Ignition etc, but not how to maybe structure a set and indeed what the perceived top 10 tracks would be?

I looked at that thread Steve - It was the R&B (Modern) that threw me and the songs suggested in the first couple of posts weren't what I was wanting.
Given the tracks you listed as examples, I'd say it's exactly what you want. (although as with all of these threads, some folks interpretation of what the genre actually entails leaves a little to be desired)
