Lauryn Hill....let's be serious

You can't be serious.

My dude has three albums full of crack.

And Lauryn released an unplugged album that literally #%$*@ on every song writer in this post.

You do know lauryn didnt write/produce that album, and it was her husband wyclef and a slew of ghostwritters who called her out and filed a class actionlawsuit against her for not getting paid.

Seriously though, people here overrate Fancy too much.

This.
Ne-Yo > The Dream with ease.

Three albums of crack? He doesn't but if he did, it's still not competing with anyone that was listed earlier

No love for Keri Hilson & The Clutch?...Tricky Stewart is more so the hands on producer rather than songwriter. correct?

 

[kingjrmzair23]

As of right now Ne-yo. Dream is a honorable mention.

 

[laced up jordans]

Ne-Yo & Dream dukin it out for the top spot

 

[ravagebx]

Ne-Yo.

And there we have it. I can't really believe it took 4pgs for him to be mentioned. I'm surprised nobody went even further to say SmokeyRobinson, Stevie Wonder, and can't forget about the late Michael Jackson

 

[mauweezie42]

Can't nobody mess with Stevie! (70's period)

 

[nomadicsole21]

Neyo out of that list.

 

[thatdudechris]

Didn't Sean and Dream both have the alias "The Pen"??

I would have to say in this scenario.. Ne-yo = Pac, Dream = Wayne, Sean Garret = BiG

I think that dude Jeremih was pretty nice Lyrically on his album, he sounded like an evolved Dream!
