It's not even r&b anymore, now it's trap/hip hop. He can't sing that well, he uses auto-tune, and sings about stupid crap. His songs aren't even catchy either, how can people even like him. - DaWyteNight
How can anybody still like him he's a woman beater and makes crappy auto-tuned songs - NicoleJohnnyLutherBrianFan
The fact that he is this high on this list is just embarrassing! - NicoleJohnnyLutherBrianFan
It’s odd that he’s hated now these days because he used to do good songs - Kid_ethinederland

Aliaume Damala Badara Akon Thiam, better known as Akon, is an American-Senegalese singer, rapper, songwriter, businessman, record producer and actor. We love you so much akon
I miss the days of Akon! He was everywhere and it was great. Now we have wack singers like ty dolla $ign, Bryson tiller, tory lanez, chris brown and august alsina who mostly sing about stupid crap and can't sing that well. THey will never replace Akon and T-Pain! The only one who comes close is the Weeknd but still his voice is very weak and girly! - DaWyteNight
Move akon sir up...whole world loves him..
He has one of the most best lyrical and flowing songs. Konvict, and Koncrete are the two of his albums that reached platinum.
6 Luther Vandross
Beyonce above Luther is an insult to music. Beyonce not even r&b, pop is not r&b!
Beyoncé and chris brown above Luther? Wow. They shouldn't even be in the top 50, there are so many better singers than overrated beyonce and chris brown! - DaWyteNight

Drake I understand but eminem is not an actual singer! Just because he sings a little bit sometimes doesn't mean he's a singer. That's like calling Ciara, Mariah Carey, Nicole Scherzinger and Monica rappers just because they did a little rapping on a track once. - NicoleJohnnyLutherBrianFan
This site confuses me I voted for Whitney Houston and put eminem in the dishonorable mentions but he's still higher ranked than Whitney and other actual singers! - NicoleJohnnyLutherBrianFan
This proves members on this website is biased on Eminem, like first off, he's not a singer, he's a rapper, and second, why is he on this list. - chocodilesforlife
