The Official R&B Trivia Thread!!!

[Shot 21]

Okay rules are simple. I will start by asking an R&B related question, and whoever answers it correctly can ask one of their own.

I will start with a nice easy one:

Omarion is brothers with which other R&B singer?

 

[RidinOutDaStorm]

I think Marques Houston is his half brother. I saw it on MTV Cribs.

Question: Name 5 videos has R. Kelly been in, not including the Closet series.

And D'Angelo used to go out with Angie Stone.

Countess Vaughn, the album was titled, Countess.

Who discovered the Jackson Five???

 

[Casey]

Gladys Knight actually recommended the Jackson 5 to Berry Gordy (Motown boss) a LONG TIME before Diana Ross did, but Diana gets the credit for discovering them.

And in all likelyness, Berry probably forgot about them until they were recommended to him again by another Motown artist, Bobby Taylor (of Bobby Taylor & The Vancouvers) a few months later.

Continuing the Motown/Jackson 5 topic, the very first Jackson 5 single released was "I Want You Back" in 1969. I own the original 7" vinyl

My question is, what track was on the b-side and who's song was it originally? (It was a cover)
