Whitney was always a bit "poppy" for my tastes. But man, what a beautiful woman and voice. Always liked En Vogue. Good groove. Don't know about their individual personal agandas, but that's OK. Same with Sade. Ooohh la la!

And yes, they severely outclassed this current crop of nasty kids. Although far from perfect, the 80's and 90's were in general the best of times for race relations IMO. We were this close to gettin the mix done proper. Then along comes Obummer. d:^)

Her first album, Greatest Love of All, etc was not poppy to me- quality ballads all the way

But 3rd album or so the record company had her doing shallow junk like ‘Love Somebody’- know what you mean there
