That’s a tad extreme to say, but yes he was prolific during that period. During that time there were 3 places you went to for a hit: LA/Babyface/Simmons, Jam and Lewis, and Teddy Riley/Gene Griffin. They were routinely on the same albums of artists. What a period.

And his genius is pretty much ignored because he's so lowkey as a personality. But Babyface has created his own hits, created hits for rnb, soul, pop stars, from Shanice to Whitney to Madonna to Brandy to Ariana Grande and Beyonce, over 4 or 5 decades. He also singlehandedly wrote one of the greatest movie soundtracks ever, and is a multi-instrumentalist. I remember people pushing back at me around the time Boosie was saying R. Kelly is the greatest over MJ and Prince. and I was saying I of course respect and love all these people's catalogs (I was only judging their work... NOT them personally lol) and impact, so it says something that Babyface beats them all because he was creating literal wealth for ERRBODY he worked with, male, female, group, solo artists...

And, the fact that he's SO (genuinely) humble about it, just makes him that much greater, because he COULD be a d*ck, about his success/talent. This man wrote the soundtrack, for the 80s & 90s, hands down!

Babyface wrote a song that profoundly described a life situation I was currently going through at a particular time. He wrote on paper my mental and experience as if he was watching me go through my love triumphs and first heart break. (Two Occasions by The Deele). A year haven't gone by without me listening to that song and even though the meanings and feelings have evolved, it still one of my favorite songs. I will add, Face truly a great writer and producer, and I greatly appreciate his profound ear and wisdom to put the song with the right artists. Because a song is only as great as the performer and his matching of the two is genius.
