Yes and I think that's why so many people - even folks OF the culture - were quick to assume Bobby was just gonna blow him out of the water.

Somebody - who was on Keith's side - said folks were counting him out because he "doesn't have any No. 1s"
... Keith has No. 1s on every single R&B chart. He has 7 on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Chart, and 5 Top 10s on the Hot 100. And has never stopped selling tickets. Ever.

If ever you're about to use crossover hits as a barometer, just remember that the average white person has no idea what a Frankie Beverly & Maze is and never heard "Before I Let Go" until Beyonce did her version.
Make It Last Forever went triple platinum (or quadruple?) at a time when you had to buy a copy for the house, for the car, and replace them as ppl kept "borrowing" and not returning. Those sales were *mostly* - not completely but mostly - us.
