Upon hearing news that the pair agreed to the matchup, fans were split on who’d emerge victoriously. DJ Cassidy kept the party going between performances, spinning a memorable mix of throwbacks like “Remember The Time”, “Poison” and the 1991 Boyz II Men smash hit “Motownphilly.” Both artists stepped on stage with an arsenal of tunes to choose from. Keith Sweat may be best known as a solo artist and songwriter, with classics like “Twisted,” “Make it Last Forever,” and “Nobody,” under his belt. But don’t forget he also has numerous credits as a songwriter, plus additional cuts alongside Gerald LeVert and Johnny Gill from their time as LSG. Of course, Bobby’s catalog needs no introduction. Outside of his solo releases and songs with Whitney Houston, his run with New Edition helped make the crew one of the top musical acts in the 80s. His 1988 debut album, Don’t Be Cruel, was a musical triumph: Amassing millions of records sold and solidifying Bobby’s spot as the official R&B Bad Boy of his day.
