While many musical historians look at the 90s as the decade in which “alternative” and hip-hop music exploded from the underground into the mainstream, we here at VH1 haven’t forgotten that the decade was flush with a number of stone classic R&B tracks. Tonight at 9 p.m., VH1 will be airing the latest installment in our long-running series The Greatest, The 40 Greatest R&B Songs Of The 90s.
In addition to monster crossover smashes from well-established forces like Whitney Houston (“I Will Always Love You”) and Janet Jackson (“That’s The Way Love Goes”), the 90s were also a time when future powerhouse R&B legends like Mary J. Blige (“Real Love”, “Not Gon’ Cry”) and R. Kelly (“I Believe I Can Fly,” “Bump N’ Grind”) first established a rapport with audiences worldwide. Of course, there were also a few groups —we’re looking at you, Bell Biv Devoe and Color Me Badd— who released instant classics but were never quite able to replicate that initial success.
Be sure to tune-in to VH1 tonight at 9 p.m. to watch the premiere of The 40 Greatest R&B Songs Of The 90s, but as a means of whetting your appetite, please take a peek at the complete list below. We’ve also put together a Spotify playlist of the complete list* for you to enjoy, and don’t miss your opportunity to start debating our selections in the comments below!

| And "Poison" was a pretty trendsetting song. Even though it's more New Jack Swing-ish....I think it being in the top 10 R&B songs of the 90's is definitely fitting. | |

| Some songs I think should have been included are "Anytime, Anyplace", "I Get Lonely"  , also "One In A Million" and "Un-break My Heart" I'm honestly surprised there is no Toni Braxton on the list at all. | |
