i think between all the boy and Girl group acts and the facts you had way too many colabs and way too much of the Producer getting all the shine and whomever was the money beat maker at said time it diluted so much and it left things so stale and weak sauce.
that to me is why Napster was as big as the acts because folks were plowing through the garbage and getting to the main hits.
other problems was these labels were pushing the video version and shoving the album version which was weak.
so alot of things hurt what you got.
also all due respect to No Limit records and Cash money and then Murder Inc, but toward the end of the decade you had the almost end of the dominant Boutique label and sounds were eating up by a latest beat maker or Producer of the moment sound dominating.
so the playing field got shrunk mistermaxxx R.Kelly, Michael Jackson,Stevie wonder,Rick James,Marvin Gaye,El Debarge, Barry WHite Lionel RIchie,Isleys EWF,Lady T.,Kid creole and coconuts,the crusaders,kc sunshine band,bee gees,jW,sd,NE,JB
