Meshell Ndegeocello in comparison to Mary J Blige or Alicia Keys...irrespective of hit records, we know which of the two are the better artists.

Matter of fact, you're the one who recently made the post abt "why didn't Erykah blow up like Mary J?"...and invariably the responses were basically because Erykah didn't have enough "fluff" material in her discography...

BUT

that doesn't mean most thought Mary is a better artist or makes better music. (but Mary mos def has a bigger fanbase, same as Kells)

The same can be said abt Kells and D'angelo

I think R Kelly is equally known for being a pedo too...
