Best Answer

Whitney Houston did not just perform in one genre. She might be considered as a dance music and R&B artist (rhythm and blues) by some, a top-40 and pop music artist by others; and she was also influenced by her mother's gospel roots. in fact, Whitney Houston's biggest hit was from Country Music-- "I Will Always Love You," originally done by country star Dolly Parton. So, she could sing in a variety of musical styles.

What genre of music did Whitney Houston play and how they differentiated themselves from other artist in that genre?

Actually, one of the unique things about Whitney Houston is she was very eclectic-- she drew from a number of genres, rather than just one. Some of her hits were dance music-- such as "How Will I Know" or "I Wanna Dance With Somebody Who Loves Me." Some were inspirational and soulful ballads like "The Greatest Love of All." One was originally a country music hit, although Whitney did not sing it in a country style-- she made it her own-- "I Will Always Love You." She also was influenced by her mother Cissy's gospel heritage and some of her influence included pop and top-40 too. So, she was a very versatile singer and this is something that differentiated her from many dance/r&b (rhythm and blues) performers.
