"Angel," Angela Winbush (11/14/87)
This is precisely how you pull off of-the-moment and timeless, simultaneously: 1. Write a great song. 2. Sing the hell out of it. 3. Produce it understatedly - going with "adult," "classy" production is generally a good move (especially as far as ensuring a timeless quality goes). Winbush's prowess behind the boards should've been well-known enough by this point, after her hit-laden career as part of René & Angela, but she really commenced her solo career with a creme de la creme single, a slow burn of a lover-praising ballad. "Angel" is fairly magnificent; aspiring R&B artistes should still be taking notes. A
