text: what are some good r&b songs to sing? i'm an contralto and wanted to know some good r&b songs to sing! aaliyah: one in a million  lauryn hill: killing me softly  alicia keys: fallen  faith evans: i love you love like this  mary j blige: your all i need (feat method man) real love be without you and that other song from her no more drama cd i forgot the name but the real good one that they played out that still sounds good.  janet jackson: together again got till it's gone go deep velvet rope  that's all i can think of right now but those are some of my favourites... oh and ashanti - a bunch of songs from her i just, the song is playing in my head right now but then name is not coming in my head.  oh god i love mariah, but it's very hard to sing her songs and actually sound good or sound like her.  whitney houston has some really good songs too!
