I'm not concerned with the vocal part only. The things that I like the most in contemporary RnB are the melodies and the feeling of the songs over all. I actually feel more goosebumps for a clear vocal singing a good melody than for those melismatic moments that come and go.
And I know Marvin Gaye was one of her influences, but have she ever done anything that incorporates classic RnB influences and sounds good at the same time?
No.
I can only think of Kono yo ni kagiri, and it was awful
And "Before you walk out of my life" doesn't count because it's practically karaoke
I really wanted her to prove me wrong though, I've been waiting years for she to release that song "Girl" from one of her demo tapes with cool RnB vibes
Edit: Sorry, I forgot about George Porgy! This was actually good, but wasn't Junpei who did the major decisions in George Porgy? I don't know O.o
