happy black history month 

I really have a hard time categorizing Mariah's "All I Want For Christmas Is You" or Rihanna's "Diamonds" as R&B tracks. Either way, some classics up there!

Usher has no entries?

Yes. If AIWFCIY and Diamonds counts, then so do  those 

Some of these are pop songs tho. Slow ballads/midtempos like LOTB, Diamonds, Halo, etc aren't r&b. It's lowkey racist.
