R. Kelly!

Not a "fan" or anything, it's just that his creations are more funky than Coldplays.

R. Kelly. =)

R. Kelly sang I Belive I Can Fly? Hmm, I always thought he was some kind of rapper...

Still going to sit out on this one, since I don't like either one.

R KELLY!

By far. If there's a more inspirational song than I Believe, I haven't heard it.

R. Kelly's 5-video "soap opera" really just kills my opinion of him. Totally messed up...

But still. Coldplay just because. :P

Coldplay. I'm not a fan of R. Kelly.

Coldplay. Coldplay. Coldplay.

There. I fulfilled the 3 word requirement. ^^



He's both, as far as I know. (I have the single for I Believe I Can Fly in my CD case. ^^)

R. Kelly isn't really a rapper, he's an R&B singer. He just features rap artists on his tracks a lot, I think...

I Believe I Can Fly is the cheesiest song ever. Oh gosh....

Coldplay!

Coldplay plays a lot better...

Amen.

Also, the Trapped in the Closet series was so annoying ("oh, noes, he's walking over to the closet, he's going to open up the closet, he's about to attempt to pry the door open, he's doing the opposite of closing the closet, he's opening the closet, oh, oh, oh, oh!").

It's the best song in the world if you need inspiration to realise your dreams, fool.
Then End of the Road by Boyz II Men for more power ballading.

Cold play of course!

Gotta go with R. Kelly.
