Weak is the weakest (no pun intended) song in the top 5. Hopefully Right Here will be the higher SWV song.

I definitely prefer the remix of "Check Yo Self", due to the sample. "It Was A Good Day" would have easily been my #2 in this. 1, 2, 4, 8, 9 - not bad. Fine with my #2 winning, but wouldn't complain if my #1 (or even my #4) pulled the upset.

I knew "Hip Hop Hooray" wasn't going to be top 5. I'm just glad it wasn't bottom 4 like someone suggested lmao

I really want Dr.dre to pull off the upset because why not ,but I think that's the way love goes or right here will win.

The highest SD is still in, and it's probably "Nuthin' But A 'G' Thang".

I'm going to regret not out and out tanking Janet, I just know it. Oh and that Ice Cube song aint got shit on "Gangsta Lean" "Knockin' Da Boots" OR "Freak Me".

Today's extras are by this singer from Maryland. The lead single from her self-titled debut album peaked at #2 on the R&B chart and #7 on the Hot 100, and won a Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.
Another Sad Love Song - Toni Braxton
There were three music videos made for this song. The one posted above is the first version. Here's the second version:
And the third version, which uses a remix:
The follow-up was another hit, peaking at #4 R&B and #3 on the Hot 100. It also gave Toni her second consecutive Grammy for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.
Breathe Again - Toni Braxton

Janet ftw but I'd also accept a SWV victory.

LMFAO, yes she's *just* a singer from Maryland. I was shook that no singles from her debut hit #1 on the R&B charts except "Seven Whole Days" on the airplay chart. Come to think of it, we should replace R. Kelly's song with SWD for 1994, IMHO.

"Can We Talk" was my #1, but if it can't win, I'd be happy with a win for either SWV song.
I am really shocked neither "Another Sad Love Song" or "Breathe Again" went to #1 here, and I am shocked none of those Mary J songs listed went to #1. I mean I guess I knew all of that, but it's still wild!

Am I the only one who finds "Can We Talk" overrated and annoying? I put it at #7 because it was certainly better than the other ones, but I prefer "I'm Ready" to "Can We Talk".

4. Weak - SWVFormed in New York City, SWV (which stands for Sisters With Voices) consists of Cheryl "Coko" Gamble, Tamara "Taj" Johnson, and Leanne "Lelee" Lyons. After getting their break by singing in front of executives for RCA, they were signed and began working on their debut album. "Weak" was the third single from that album, It's About Time. It went on to top the R&B and Hot 100 charts and is certified triple platinum, making it their biggest hit. Apologies to Private Dancer, #LisaRinna, and ilikemilk...

LOL It's a de facto Janet vs Michael almost, since "Right Here" heavily samples "Human Nature"
