"A previous reviewer complained about some tracks that were on this set. Considering that Kelly has so many hits, that is fair enough coz not everything can be fit on one volume. However to say that "Sex Me" is a filler and not a hit is totally wrong. It was R&B top 10, Pop top 20 and went Gold. In fact it charted higher than "Dedicated" which the reviewer insisted should have made it on the cd. Also "Fiesta" remix was indeed one of Kelly's biggest hits, being an R&B # 1 and pop #6, and was named the most popular (chart wise) R&B/Hip Hop song of 2001 by Billboard themselves. The songs from Born Into The 90s that made it here are also justified. "Honey Love" was the first of the R.'s 10 R&B #1 hits and "She's Got That Vibe" was the song that gave him his initial worldwide popularity. Every song on this set is contemporary R&B at its greatest and deserves to be on vol. 1 and I totally recommend this to any new or longtime R&B fan. Bring on BOBW2, The Secret album and R. In R&B Vol. 2!!!"

What Do You Expect from a GENIUS like the R...?

I TELL Y`ALL, YOU COULDN`T HAVE A BEST R&B GREATEST HITS ALBUM LIKE "THE R. IN R&B COLLECTION VOL.1", BECAUSE R. IS R&B AT HIS BEST. I SUGGEST TO EVERYONE WHO DOESN`T EVEN LIKE R&B TO BUY THIS CLASSIC BECAUSE R. IS MAKING THE WHOLE MUSIC INDUSTRY BUMPING AND HAVING HITS FOR EVERYBODY. I RECOMENDED TO BUY AT 2 COPIES OF THIS GREATNESS OF MUSIC. GET SOME LOVE TO YOUR LIFE AND GET THIS NOW...HURRY UP!!!!"
