Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It is the DL Hugh Show Your twenty twenty six edition.
- 0:02Speaker 1: So Rolling Stone has the top twenty R and B
- 0:07Speaker 1: grades R and B songs of the twenty first sittuy,
- 0:09Speaker 1: but there is surprisingly no Chris Brown, no r KL.
- 0:12Speaker 1: You think that they got right to give me a
- 0:15Speaker 1: list of a few of the people.
- 0:16Speaker 2: Okay, so some of the people. Michael Jackson, you rock
- 0:19Speaker 2: my World.
- 0:20Speaker 3: You came in at number twenty.
- 0:21Speaker 2: Number fifteen was a Lea rocked the boat should be
- 0:24Speaker 2: higher if you got Brandy and Frank Ocean is six
- 0:28Speaker 2: and you got a Leah fifteen, not at all.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, truth be told.
- 0:31Speaker 2: For me personally, I'm going to say Maxwell pretty Wings
- 0:33Speaker 2: should have been higher than sixteen.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Absolutely, probably, you.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Know what I mean for sure? You know I do
- 0:39Speaker 2: like Alicia keys Falling that came in at number seven.
- 0:42Speaker 3: That's pretty good.
- 0:44Speaker 1: But you know it's all subjective, but you would feel
- 0:47Speaker 1: like people who are in the music industry probably have
- 0:49Speaker 1: a different you all probably have a different ethosis. But
- 0:53Speaker 1: I guess the fans are the one who made them that,
- 0:55Speaker 1: So I guess, yeah, I.
- 0:56Speaker 2: Mean I guess because we don't know it's Rolling Stone.
- 0:58Speaker 2: Now what metric system that you to collect this. I
- 1:00Speaker 2: don't know if it was based on album sales, if
- 1:03Speaker 2: it was based on single sales, but it was based on,
- 1:05Speaker 2: you know, positioning on the charts. You know, if it
- 1:07Speaker 2: was based on how often this Monica had anything. She
- 1:13Speaker 2: had a good little run, she'd have anything.
- 1:16Speaker 4: It was is he Solange? I love Solange?
- 1:20Speaker 5: But in the top twenty she stop playing Stop?
- 1:24Speaker 4: That was a great album, and no r Kelly.
- 1:25Speaker 1: But you guys like, yeah, who else who was who
- 1:31Speaker 1: was huge?
- 1:33Speaker 4: That isn't on that? I think, uh, you know, my
- 1:35Speaker 4: Jaime should have something?
- 1:36Speaker 3: I mean, can we not say at least shouldn't be
- 1:40Speaker 3: on the list?
- 1:41Speaker 4: She's she's They'll do that somewhere else.
- 1:43Speaker 1: But Amy Whine I was probably should have definitely, Yeah, everybody,
- 1:47Speaker 1: it'd be it'd be a lot of white people.
- 1:48Speaker 4: In there, Yeah, would be.
- 1:50Speaker 3: She was an R and B artist.
- 1:51Speaker 4: No, I still still top twenty. It would be on
- 1:54Speaker 4: the twenty first century.
- 1:55Speaker 2: I don't be more than Frank Ocean. No, Frank, Frank Frankly,
- 2:01Speaker 2: you don't think Black.
- 2:02Speaker 3: Radio played Amy winehows more than I don't know.
- 2:05Speaker 5: I don't know, but I'm not voting for I'm not
- 2:10Speaker 5: voting for either one of them.
- 2:11Speaker 1: I think I think that Johnime should have something there,
- 2:15Speaker 1: even just so even though he even just so he
- 2:17Speaker 1: can get.
- 2:17Speaker 4: A dental plan. He said, Wow, I mean his trip
- 2:23Speaker 4: to Turkey. You know it was some big, big, big
- 2:25Speaker 4: big songs.
- 2:26Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:27Speaker 1: No, so, uh, Rolling Stone came up with its top
- 2:33Speaker 1: twenty Greatest Songs R and B Songs of the twenty
- 2:38Speaker 1: first century, even though it's just kind of getting started,
- 2:40Speaker 1: so uh, small sample size, but uh, you know, they
- 2:44Speaker 1: don't have any Chris Brown and no R. Kelly, which
- 2:46Speaker 1: I think is pretty much impossible. But their list to me,
- 2:50Speaker 1: but when you have son but okay, go ahead, Yeah,
- 2:53Speaker 1: I mean, I tell you what it does give you pause?
- 2:55Speaker 1: It does give you pause. So Rolling Stone came out
- 2:58Speaker 1: with a twenty great this R and B Songs of
- 3:01Speaker 1: the twenty first century. No Usher, curiously, no us Er
- 3:05Speaker 1: special Me, no no R. Kelly, and no Chris Brown.
- 3:11Speaker 1: When did Luther come up with dance with my father?
- 3:14Speaker 4: He was before that? I think I think when.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Was he What was it when he come up with
- 3:17Speaker 1: dance with that? Twenty five years ago? Right, I don't
- 3:21Speaker 1: know twenty first since you started twenty five years.
- 3:24Speaker 4: Ago, right, Yeah, they say it started on two thousand
- 3:26Speaker 4: and one. Some people try to put two thousand there, but.
- 3:29Speaker 3: Almost two thousand and three. No, Yeah, Dance with My Father.
- 3:32Speaker 4: That should have been there. That definitely should have been there.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Two thousand and three, that's that definitely should have been
- 3:37Speaker 1: I think that's one of the greatest army songs.
- 3:39Speaker 4: Of that era. I like it better than anything I heard.
- 3:42Speaker 1: It's as good as anything I've heard them give uh
- 3:46Speaker 1: give hamas right.
- 3:48Speaker 4: Dance my Father was a big record too.
- 3:49Speaker 3: It was a big record.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Yeah, well, nothing by nothing by Brian McKnight. Nothing by him.
- 3:55Speaker 4: I ain't talking about just because he's a horrible man.
- 3:56Speaker 4: Didn't mean.
- 3:58Speaker 1: Loo get Kyle getting all of that was his dude,
- 4:02Speaker 1: it was I mean, I like his music, but he's
- 4:04Speaker 1: a horrible person. I think that scores sound just floated
- 4:07Speaker 1: him off the top. Twenty Perhaps he had a lot
- 4:12Speaker 1: of late ninety he had, Yeah, nothing not twenty five
- 4:16Speaker 1: years ago.
- 4:16Speaker 5: Nothing, No, not the biggest songs all like ninety eight,
- 4:20Speaker 5: ninety nine, ninety seven.
- 4:22Speaker 4: You know, yeah, no, he No, the new ones, they
- 4:26Speaker 4: they weren't.
- 4:27Speaker 3: Well when you open it up.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Even Billboard did an analysis twenty for twenty twenty five
- 4:32Speaker 2: and they were talking about, you know, for the twenty
- 4:34Speaker 2: first century, but they were looking more at the metrics
- 4:36Speaker 2: of streaming numbers and consistent chart topping hits. Chris Brown
- 4:40Speaker 2: is in that as number four. Then comes the Weekend
- 4:43Speaker 2: at number three, Beyonce number two, and number one is Drake.
- 4:49Speaker 3: Yeah as R and B, So yeah, R and B.
- 4:54Speaker 7: I mean.
- 4:57Speaker 4: This even worse even though he put it Chris and
- 5:00Speaker 4: then but still, you know that's all was subjective.
- 5:03Speaker 1: So Rollingstone came out with his top twenty greatest R
- 5:07Speaker 1: and B Songs of the twenty first century. It can
- 5:10Speaker 1: conspicuously had no Chris Brown and no R Kelly, do
- 5:14Speaker 1: you agree with the list?
- 5:15Speaker 4: We're going to the farms?
- 5:16Speaker 7: Well, you know when they missed Chris Brown, I mean,
- 5:19Speaker 7: how can you miss an R and B legend like that?
- 5:22Speaker 7: That's like that's like having going to getting pizza and
- 5:26Speaker 7: missing the mox relatives.
- 5:28Speaker 8: I mean, come on, I mean, you.
- 5:31Speaker 7: Know you miss Chris Brown even usher this US shared
- 5:35Speaker 7: do a remake of.
- 5:36Speaker 6: One of hit songs.
- 5:37Speaker 7: But you know who ain't mad at that ned at
- 5:39Speaker 7: that statement.
- 5:40Speaker 8: It's Chris Brown's accountant.
- 5:42Speaker 7: Okay, he's not mad at that statement because Chris Brown.
- 5:48Speaker 8: I think that that was a personal.
- 5:50Speaker 7: It's pass to do with you know, a lot of
- 5:52Speaker 7: stuff that goes on with Chris Brown. But I mean,
- 5:55Speaker 7: there's not a time that you don't hear Chris Brown everywhere, even.
- 5:59Speaker 8: In the pop radio stations. Are you kidding me? Come on,
- 6:02Speaker 8: you didn't get that right?
- 6:04Speaker 9: We can't leave out r Kelly. Let's be for real.
- 6:07Speaker 10: You know, people do things in.
- 6:08Speaker 9: Life, but musically, let's be for real. That's the case,
- 6:11Speaker 9: then we'll be punishing the Europeans forever. Not to say
- 6:15Speaker 9: it like that, but come on, they made biggest atrocities
- 6:18Speaker 9: in the world. The brother made a couple of mistakes,
- 6:20Speaker 9: we get it, but come on, the music bro is timeless.
- 6:24Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a miss for me. I don't understand this list. Well,
- 6:28Speaker 11: maybe because it's.
- 6:29Speaker 8: The two thousands on because most of my hits.
- 6:33Speaker 11: The R and B hits to me, or the best
- 6:35Speaker 11: ones were from the nineties, but since they started with
- 6:38Speaker 11: the two thousands, I don't know, man, it still seems
- 6:41Speaker 11: like a myths, Like I don't understand why a Kisha
- 6:43Speaker 11: Cole is not there. Like I'm an R and B
- 6:46Speaker 11: fan and I love that so love that was that
- 6:49Speaker 11: was a hit for men.
- 6:50Speaker 7: I don't know.
- 6:51Speaker 6: It's a missed for me. Hey, yeah, they got that
- 6:54Speaker 6: list wrong, mand I listening to every date, we should
- 6:58Speaker 6: already know. If anything, they got their livings bit together
- 7:01Speaker 6: because it was Rowan Stars Gonna like Roland White Rocks.
- 7:04Speaker 6: I gotta remember what they listened to. We know what
- 7:06Speaker 6: we like, and of course we know that list is wrong. Man,
- 7:09Speaker 6: nextwell death far down the line. No, no, no, no, no,
- 7:12Speaker 6: Cam's Chris allt themis no And there's no way brand
- 7:17Speaker 6: is supposed to be in front of the list. I
- 7:18Speaker 6: just had to call to get that I heard because
- 7:20Speaker 6: that just bothered with me.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Man.
- 7:22Speaker 1: So Rolling Stone came out with his twenty greatest R
- 7:26Speaker 1: and B Songs of the twenty first century. Conspicuously there
- 7:29Speaker 1: was no R Kelly and there was no Chris Brown.
- 7:32Speaker 4: Do you agree with that list? We're going to write
- 7:34Speaker 4: to the phones.
- 7:35Speaker 6: Listen.
- 7:35Speaker 12: I think Chris Brown most definitely need to be on
- 7:37Speaker 12: the list. Fring Ocean's phenomenal, but Chris Brown puts it
- 7:40Speaker 12: down every single time. Every single year we ever d
- 7:42Speaker 12: during the summer. You make sure we all straight. So
- 7:44Speaker 12: Chris Brown for sure needs to be on that list.
- 7:46Speaker 12: Crown from DC.
- 7:48Speaker 10: You know, rolland Stone is the same magazine that said
- 7:50Speaker 10: the song that Michael Jackson had Lady was one of
- 7:53Speaker 10: the worst songs he had ever did, which we all
- 7:56Speaker 10: know was a lie. That was one of the best
- 7:58Speaker 10: songs that he had ever did. Ladies. So Roller Rolling Stone,
- 8:01Speaker 10: you know, I don't have no credibility with them because
- 8:03Speaker 10: they you know, they say things that are just off
- 8:05Speaker 10: the wall. If you don't mention R Kelly anytime you
- 8:08Speaker 10: started saying best album, best producer, best songwriter, If you
- 8:12Speaker 10: don't mention mentioning R Kelly name, then the rest of
- 8:15Speaker 10: his garbage. If you don't mention Chris Brown, the rest
- 8:18Speaker 10: of his garbage because R Kelly is the king, and
- 8:21Speaker 10: I don't care what calor girver you put it in
- 8:23Speaker 10: best album, best Songwriter, best producer. If you don't mention
- 8:27Speaker 10: R Kelly, then you miss me with all the rest
- 8:30Speaker 10: of the people, because to me, he's the king. But
- 8:34Speaker 10: Frank Ocean, I like Frank Ocean, but nah, I ain't
- 8:37Speaker 10: buying that Rolling Stone. You know, they I don't know,
- 8:40Speaker 10: they start to get a lot of things wrong.
- 8:42Speaker 8: In my opinion, Yeah, where's till she at in that list?
- 8:46Speaker 8: Because I think they have some greatness. In my opinion,
- 8:50Speaker 8: may condition you has some good ones too. You understand
- 8:53Speaker 8: what I'm saying. There's a whole lot of people they
- 8:55Speaker 8: are leasing out on this list that deserve to be
- 8:58Speaker 8: on that list. Saying what I'm saying, So I think
- 9:02Speaker 8: they got the list semi right and semi wrong. I
- 9:06Speaker 8: agree with it, but I don't agree with it. Like
- 9:08Speaker 8: I said, what about main Condition, they had a couple
- 9:11Speaker 8: of great ones? What about TC? They had more than
- 9:14Speaker 8: two or three great ones? Where they at on the list?
- 9:18Speaker 8: No way, you don't have no law on you all.
- 9:20Speaker 8: There has got to be bogused without.
- 9:22Speaker 11: No law here anything she made.
- 9:26Speaker 8: How you gonna have no lawn hills? Not once? All
- 9:29Speaker 8: too are anything?
- 9:30Speaker 6: She may got to be on ether somewhere.
- 9:33Speaker 4: All right.

- 10:44Speaker 13: areas in life. Medicine, engineering, nursing, maybe even up and planning. Okay,
- 10:49Speaker 13: this girl walks at Little Lemon at the mall. Who

- 11:03Speaker 4: You have already failed in life.
- 11:06Speaker 13: Why are you taking your lack of ambition and mediocrity
- 11:10Speaker 13: to a place that already has its problems? No, no, no, no,
