afro1920 - April 30th, 2009
Man, I really had a rough time because I loved most of the options. Indeed I clicked on so many I didn't know if my votes would even count, lol. I was teen and young collegiate in the 1990s, so I had been touched by these songs like people who grew up in the 60s, 70s and 80s were with the music of those eras. I really appreciated the diversity of the selections as well although I must say that I am truly a 'neo soul' queen with Maxwell, Erykah and D'Angelo being my favorites of all times. Thanks for such a great trip down memory lane!

afro1920 - April 30th, 2009
Although I have overall praise for the list since it includes some of my all-time faves, I must say that I agree that there were some stellar albums excluded. Rachelle's is definitely one. Another I would say is Rahsaan Patterson's "Love in Stereo".

ozzysoulie - May 5th, 2009
Hey I have to agree about Rachelle Ferrell's self titled album. It's agreat album and I continually play it. Also I am disappointed that Ann Nesby's "I'm here for you didn't make it and that Milara's "Back again" wasn't nominated.

Album: Ghetto Cyrano

manofsoul79 - November 10th, 2009
While I agree with most of this list and I'm glad to see Erykah Badu's Mama's Gun on the list, becuase it has been so underated. Frankie's album my heart belongs to you is one of the best soul albums ever made and should be on this list.

VERY TOUGH DECADE RATING
dresser1474 - February 1st, 2010
VERY TOUGH DECADE RATING SOUL MUSIC:
There were a great deal of artists who came out with phenomenal albums. This decade was a big time transition in soul music since hip-hop, r&b, and soul basically got married. We can't really say who was number one. I was a part of all of this music. I loved just about all the soul music that came out in this decade. Question: What's up with the Toney's albums' 'The Revival' and 'Sons of Soul' not being in the top 75?
