Music lovers have been left jaw-dropped at the omission of Luther Vandross, Diana Ross, Chris Brown, Brandy, Alicia Keys, Usher, Mary J. Blige, Janet Jackson, Chaka Khan, Toni Braxton, Gladys Knight, and Anita Baker (among others) from the top 10 of Billboard’s latest countdown – ‘The 75 Best R&B Artists of All Time.’
