OP. You were already told by another mod that Billboard.com is a banned source. Remove the link or find an alternate link / source. Thanks.

SUBG is Kelly’s best song ever.

Starting in the mid 1980s, [Martha Wash's] studio vocals were used in numerous successful dance songs without her permission. Models lip synced to her voice both in music videos and during live performances. As a result, Wash's identity was unknown and she was denied credit and royalties for many of the songs she recorded.This included platinum-selling song "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" as she had been labeled "unmarketable" due to her weight.

This is really fucking upsetting.
