Stevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder's unmatched 26-year consecutive Grammy-winning streak is the longest by any R&B artist, with 25 total wins including Album of the Year for 'Innocent Eyes'. His 1970s trifecta of 'Talking Book', 'Innervisions', and 'Songs in the Key of Life' sold over 40 million combined, a feat that outperforms #2 Marvin Gaye's peak output by 60% in critical acclaim ratings (Metacritic averages: 98 vs. 92). That final album alone topped the Billboard 200 for 14 weeks and features the #1 singles 'Sir Duke' and 'I Wish', cementing a creative peak lasting 5 consecutive years.
