Both.
Stevie Wonder plays the piano, but he goes uncredited for playing the harmonica.
Prince performs with a guitar, but doesn't play guitar on his albums.
R&B has a tradition(especially after the 60's) for being more vocals oriented although some have classical/church training ,but it sometimes takes a backseat to their great vocals/performing.
Jimi Hendrix started out as a Blues/R&B musician ,but could not hack it as a soloist because he was an awful singer/songstylist.
Yes.
If an artist is known to play an instrument, it makes the song better.
We're basically judging on the best song, obviously a song with maybe 2 good vocalists, 2 dancers(mainly), a 50's songwriter, and a mediocre backing band without their leader.
So basically dont throw Curtis Mayfield on a track with T-Pain.

Prince plays guitar on all his albums (he doesn't play on every song however, for example, the solo from Little Red Corvette was done by Dez Dickerson).

I meant the entire album, but you get my drift.

How much longer until we just do it with 9? Instead of heads-up matches, we could have pools of 3

No problem, send 2 picks just in case 1 has already been taken.
