Oh please ... that's way too hard of a question to answer. There are so many greats. I guess if someone had to twist my arm, I'd name four in each male and female category:
MALE:
1. Luther Vandross
2. Brian McKnight
3. Marvin Gaye
4. John Legend
FEMALE:
1. Aretha Franklin
2. Mary J. Blige
3. Jennifer Holliday
4. Phyllis Hyman

Wow that's a hard one,
Male:
Luther Vandross
Marvin Gaye

Female

Those are the best options, I simply can't bring myself to pick just one in either category.
