I am a diehard Tank fan and love his music. However, we need to let this go. Tank and R. Kelly are 2 total different artist. R. Kelly is a senior in this music game. He is almost 10 years ahead of Tank. R. Kelly has a legacy of music all the way from the early 90's up to 2016 and has worked with a lot of people in the industry that a lot of artist wish they had the chance to work with. If R. Kelly's personal life wasn't screwed up and had not interfered with his career in music, this discussion would not be happening. Tank came along in 2001. He has a few hits under his belt. His overall album release have been hits and some misses. And now after being in the music game since 2001 and this being 2022, he is ready to retire.
Also...although tank can really sing and his pen game is strong, he can't hold Kellz jock strap in that department either. Did ANYONE in this comment section see Kelly's 2013 performance of "When A Woman Loves???" Did y'all forget what dude does because of the wild sick circus side show he's placed himself in??? Black folks...we REALLY need to stop with this absurd banter of Kellz vs Tank 😂 at best Tank vs Jaheim, Carl Thomas, Avant, Tyrese, who are all REALLY good vocalists and in the same 2000/2001 area, except for Tyrese '97'ish. Musically, Kelly is on the Michael Jackson/ Prince level. And I only say musically because he didn't shift or rule pop culture like Mike & Prince. The only current R&B artist who would put up a decent fight with Kelly but would still lose is Usher. Yes, Chris got the catalog as well, but he would get flamed vocally.
Dude's right. No one in R&B can touch Kells! Tank is nice, but he's not on Kells level and never with be. Facts are facts. Deep down inside he knows it. I did say Kells was a fake Aaron Hall ass nigga, when he first came out. I just knew "She's Got That Vibe" was an Aaron Hall song.
Tank vs Rkelly. Makes absolutely no sense. Stop disrespecting Kelz. The only people who could is Chris Brown & Usher. Tank should go up against Joe or Johnny Gil
I think the reason they put him against Kelz is because of the many hits he wrote for others plus his hits… Kinda hard to find a match for Tank in my eyes
MR KELLY CAN SING , HE IS THE ONLY KING OF RnB WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT ,YOU CAN NEVER EVER COMPARE KELLS ,SWEAT,GILL LIONEL RICHIE ETC. THE LIST GOES ON . THEY'VE GIVEN THE VERY BEST
TBH Kellz is the R&B GOAT… but he cannot out sing Tank… Vocally it’s not even close! And it’s OK. R has an awesome catalog, his artistry, his production, his pen is unmatchable… but there are other singers that are better vocally. IMO.
@@The803Hitman Tank is way better than R Kelly vocally. Now, if we are talking about SONG WRITING, AND ARRANGING MUSIC AND LYRICS, R KELLY IS A BETTER HANDS DOWN.
J Valentine hit the nail on the head because he is in the music industry and he has heard all kinds of music and all kinds of people singing it. But everybody know R.Kelly is the king of R&B and he has been since the 90s. His personal life has nothing to do with his talent I have seen R.Kelly sing acapella songs at his concert that ain't even the song he just made it up and it sound good. R Kelly has brought back the Isley Brothers and so many other artists and if he was not on The Best of Both Worlds album a whole lot of people wouldn't have bought it because that's the reason I bought it for his hooks. You have seen R.Kelly breakout anywhere in the street everywhere he goes and he can sing it and it sounds just like the record whether he have a drink or smoke a cigar or whatever he is just talented and nobody can take that away from him!!!!!!$ I respect J Valentine to the upmost was speaking his truth😊#R&B money
I am a huge fan of Tank. Actually one of my top 5 favorite artists. But R. Kelly smokes just about everyone!! Only Verzuz where Kelly will lose is Michael Jackson.
Tank vs Jaheim would be good. Jaheim has more hits. RKELLY would out sing Tank in a show. He's a better performer. Tank never had a tour. Never headlined a tour. Usher Chris Brown. Maxwell Bobby Brown. RKELLY. LUTHER. PRINCE. MIKE. all headlined tours. Trey Songs vs Tank. Trey Songs has more hits. I'm talking about songs from their albums
@@sheednotez I am glad my ears is not clogged up with wax. You are kidding right? I like Tank and I am a big fan. However Jaheim blows pass Tank when it comes to singing. Jaheim's vocals has been compared to the likes of Luther Vandross and Teddy Pendergrass.
THANK YOU J VALENTINE FOR BEING FOR REAL A GENTLEMEN AND SHOWING CLASS WITH THE WAY YOU ARE SPEAKING AND TELLING THE TRUTH. EVERYBODY CAN JUDGE TO SAY WHAT THEY WANT TO SAY, BUT R.KELLY IS A MUSICAL GENIUS WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC. HE HAS SUNG EVERY GENRE OF MUSIC THERE IS FROM BLUES, OPERA, SOUL MUSIC, R&B, STEPPING MUSIC, RAP AND HE HAS PUT EXCEPTIONAL HOOKS ON SO MANY ARTIST'S SONGS AND THEY ALL WERE HITS.. R KELLY HAS SO MANY YEARS IN THE GAME AND HE HAS EVOLVED INTO AN EXCEPTIONAL ARTIST NOBODY CAN TAKE THAT AWAY. AND HE CAN READ AND WRITE MUSIC LIKE NO OTHER. AND I'M NOT TAKING AWAY ANYTHING FROM TANK BECAUSE I LISTEN TO HIM EVERY SINGLE DAY BUT THEY ARE JUST TOO DIFFERENT TYPES OF MUSICIANS.
Tank doesn't even need to be mentioned in the same breath as Robert.. Two different leagues.. There are only 3 R&B singers that can actually compete with that man, which 2 of those are deceased (Prince & MJ) is Stevie Wonder.. He is the only one with enough HITS to go blow for blow with Kelley, and even the ones that he have still aren't enough to get the job done.. I will give an honorable mention to Chris Brown.. but TANK..... NO
First of dude ain’t funny at all to me!! R.Kelly ran the 90’s! R.Kelly’s talent is unquestionable and undeniable!! R.Kelly did a lot that people don’t even know! Tank better stay with Omarion and them!!
Affion smh. Aaron Hall -"dum dum diddy day" Ain't no way tank can go up against r. Kelly. R Kelly is the king of r&b. Just focus on his music n not the other stuff his catalog is crazy no r&b artist can touch him. N tank is a great artist. R Kellys music is crazy like even if your not a fan u will never be able to deny his catalog n what he has done in the r&b community.
R kelly could only go up against Chris brown due to the amount of hits, if not the closet to him Is Joe to me because Joe has a good catalog of music as well and more and more was written by Kelly so I would love to see that play out on stage lol
Exactly, everybody ain't all up in Kells draws like his fans are! Everyone has a right to express their opinions and you're not gonna always agree. Thank you, finally someone with some sense!
Chris brown the only one that can see kells cuz he the only one with as many songs! Tank sing way better but r Kelly body of work put him in his own lane fr outside of breezy
Tank doesn't have 1 real hit and can't come close to even music soul child. More like Tank vz Jaheim. That dude on the bottom is a no go around kids. Disgusting talk. Yo what kind of crap you putting on RUclips. He's no comedian cause nothing about that was funny, he was just being honest about his mentality.
Tank need to go and sit the ffff down smh u think having a few hits under your belt an can sing riffs an runs can put match Roberts catalog observe I didn’t say r Kelly mr Robert for y’all
I love both. Obviously kelly was on another level artistically. R kelly could elevate vocally at will. Dont get it twisted. However Tanks discography is locced immaculate. Kelly has bigger and many more hits than Tank but R also houses many more misses and filler due to prolific fan service and career longevity.
Kells hits brought something different to RnB mainly because it was selling sex. Vocally Tank is singing circles round most singers inc Kells and I know Kells is massive in RnB deservedly so but vocally Tank is a beast.
Stop the madness tank doesnt come close to r kelly lets not talk about a versus whoever believes this does not no rnb and r kelly playlist like they assume they do
R KELLY is a lot of things but he is a musical god… personally he is the devil which a lot of your faves are but when it comes to the music NO BODY CAN SEE R KELLY! NOBODY !!!

@@JohnThompson-ou8qv 🤣🤣🤣🤣"jockstrap" and you are absolutely right. Not a chance in hell could Tank win R Kelly on a live or elsewhere to be honest.
@@realreviews4017 Facts bro!
Facts!!!!
R.Kelly is the best in R&B today and forever
There's nobody out over the last 30 years that can mess with Kell's catalog.
Catalog no good to him now. Banged up forever more. No airplay anymore. No club play anymore. Legacy in tatters. What a waste.
Tank needs to go against somebody like Joe, avant- or ginuwine ..NOBODY can beat r.Kelly in a Verzuz
Big facts!!!!
Maybe usher?
EXACTLYYYYYY.....! EYE BEEN SAYING DAT - Maybe even a triple threat - Tank verzuz Avant verzuz Joe
And Joes will eat Tank UP vocally
J valentine looks like one of those rare people in music that doesn't look like he drinks alot and does cocaine. He looks healthy
lol 😂 facts
True that and he doesn’t age😍
& that’s because he doesn’t lol he said it
If they don't knock it off!! Nobody is messing with Kellz!!

Ok bruh, you're buggin. Joe will smack all those R&B wanna b's.
Facts
I love Tank. But Joe Thomas? Don't go there please....
Somebody needs to call Boosie to address Affion's blasphemy
I agree
but he said in HIS opinion 🤔
No one can beat R.Kelly period. Good night. Crokette is bugging
If anyone says R Kelly can’t sing or doesn’t have good music must not love music
If you don’t think R Kelly can sing that disqualifies you stop it , that just shows you don’t know R&B
RKELLY VS. KELZ THATS IT .
NOBODY CAN MESS WITH KELLY.
RESPECT THE MAN
J is TRIPPIN... Kelz would WASH anyone living
Nobody can beat R.Kelly in Verzuz so they shouldn’t even put Kelly in any battle at all
Kellz would smoke tank wit the hits he wrote 4 other folk alone!!!
I second this! Tank doesn’t have that many hits of his alone. Who started this conversation?
CAN’T NOBODY BEAT RKELLY or MARY J BLIDGE in a VERSUS
Mary J can't sing
That part
Period
They should put them in a vs battle switch it up
I mean Mariah exists
TANK COULD NEVER🙌🏽🙏🏽❤
RKELLY is a great song writer and performer

Tank versus R.Kelly this must be a joke knock it off whoever thinks tank is a good opponent for R.Kelly don't know s*** about music
Ain't no fuckin with R.Kelly when it comes to R&B and free R.Kelly music ain't the same without him
Kelly has always been top dog in R&B can't discredit his greatest because how u might feel about what he did in his personal life
You aint got to be a fan to be smart lol. Kellz smokes Tank. Stop it bruh
Yeaaaa....he a lie. He tripping 🤣🤣
Didn’t Tank write a whole lot of bangers during the time R Kelly was the hottest? Kelz wins but I don’t know about ‘smokes’ him
Smokes him! Kellz will smoke dudes with trapped in the closet series alone...stop it! 😂
Like a MF pack of Kools Kel's would smoke'em....

I am a huge fan of Tank. Actually one of my top 5 favorite artists. But R. Kelly smokes just about everyone!! Only Verzuz where Kelly will lose is Michael Jackson.
Thank you I said the same thing.
Kellz also wrote a few for Micheal
The man did Opera
I love both artists, but R Kelly , would win in a versus
Tank says R Kelly is the goat. Hands down tank says it
Nobody dead or alive can beat R Kelly in verses point blank Periodt
periodttt
IDK about dead cuz MJ was on the level too
Come on Big A. Kellz is the GOAT. Just like Jay P is the GOAT of impressions lol
Ifur never a fan of R Kelly than anybody can beat R Kelly in a verzuz in your eyes.
Both are are great musicians. But I came on here to see j valentine lol 😆 😍
I repeat NOBODY AND I MEAN NOBODY male nor female can beat R. Kelly in a Versuz.💯
Even Tank admitted on Drink Champs that Kelz is the bar for RNB and he is 4ever the King....Tank dope too, great writer and vocalist 💯

Tank will never be better Than R Kelly. Come on Tank ain't that dude.

R.Kelly is the BAR…He is the VOCALIST ain’t nobody messing with him
Tank can't sing worth a damn and I'm still pissed about how he fucked up Can We Talk.
