You’re in luck for the first one - somehow Blonde and Endless we’re not rated in This WAS 2016. Maybe we could do a part two with The Life of Pablo and some others?

 

@JoAddams come up with a set list and get back to me.

 

A long long time ago, a lovely user named @Subomie started a rate series ranking all the number ones at R&B radio. Does anyone want to pick up where he left off? @Thinking Of You? @Armani?? @Keith?

10 singles per act - that's how you narrow it down!

 

And if you're going to include Sylvester, give a look to Dan Hartman and Patrick Hernandez!

Both Blonde and The Life Of Pablo was included in the This Was 2016 part 2 rate that I hosted back in 2017. Endless was not touched however.

:rip: I don't fully know what this means. Does the artist have to be lgbt affiliated of some sort or does the music have to match that vibe?

Hmm. I'm unsure about any group or band including men being in a MAKES THE WOMAN rate, so most of your list would be out! But Amy and Erykah are great picks; just find those to go with them? [FYC: Holly Valance] 

 

I like this format of 3/4 albums that have never been rated alongside 1/2 that have; with that in mind, I present some other lineups of the aughts that might work! (*denotes the albums that have been rated before that will be allowed to be re-rated in a new context!)

 

2002 MAKES THE WOMAN

 

Amerie

Ashanti

Avril Lavigne

Missy Elliott

Norah Jones

 

2004 MAKES THE WOMAN

 

Annie

Anastascia

Ciara

Janet *

Loretta Lynn

 

2005 MAKES THE WOMAN

Fiona Apple

Mary J Blige *

Rachel Stevens

Robyn

 

2006 MAKES THE WOMAN

 

Corinne Bailey-Rae 

Joanna Newsom (ATRL listening to YS... oh yes, oh yes)

Neko Case OR Cat Power

1 of ANY of the major pop releases that have been previously rated

1 of the 2 groundbreaking UK releases from women who worked with Mark Ronson (they've been rated too!)

 

2007 MAKES THE WOMAN

 

Britney Spears * (because you can't mention 2007 without Blackout)

Feist

M.I.A.

Miranda Lambert

Roisin Murphy

 

2017 MAKES THE WOMAN

 

Katy

Kesha

Lana

Pink

Taylor

 

Any of these interest you? Or anyone else?

Just passing by but I remember (and I just double checked this lol) there was a This Was 2017 Pop Rate with Katy, Kesha, and Taylor in it :rip: 

 

Also @MP2K when are we starting up New Wave of R&B Pt. III? You already ran the list by me like a month ago nn :thing:

Was there ever a top female albums of all time song rate? It would be cool to see ATRL's opinion on albums like Horses, Tapestry, Dusty in Memphis, I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You, Hounds of Love or Pearl.

What year did we last finish for the R&B #1s? @Ace Reject

 

Edit - Nevermind, so we'd start with 1993

Anohni

Fiona Apple

Robyn and Rachel Stevens were also previously rated against Chemistry andTaller In More Ways.

I know all the quotes to this are just "this album was also used before"... so here's another LMFAO - Fiona's Extraordinary Machine was definitely used before, I THINK in This Was 2005 (it was in the same rate as Twin Cinema and Illinois I recall that). 

 

Roisin's Overpowered was also used in This Was Pop 2007 (the only rate I've hosted and probably only one I ever will xo). Could be cute to have her 2005 album Ruby Blue (her best album xo) used in a rate at some point? Even if Overpowered is always "the" Roisin album.
