Pop wasn't that prevalent or that mainstream in the 90s in general though. But that's just a matter of fashion, it was bound to change back sometime or another.

Just proves my point.
The R&B groups were successful, the pure manufactured pop groups either had a couple of hits & disappeared and mostly had longer in the spotlight after the Spice Girls had broke.

Yes it was.

Bands like Take That & East 17 were selling millions.

Ann and Nancy Wilson did more than most others mentioned with their power ballads and pop hits into the 1990s. They rose to fame in the 1970s. Although their music is different in style, and without choreography of other bands like the Spice Girls. Haven't they made the biggest impact on the music industry?

I was arguing that the Spice Girls opened the floodgates for manufactured girl bands. I don't see what Heart have to do with anything.

That's what En Vogue was, totally manufactured:

The blueprint was based on the plan of recruiting singers who possessed strong voices, noticeably good looks, and intelligence. Auditions were held in 1988, with Herron, Jones and Robinson making the final cut. Like previous girl groups, En Vogue was originally conceived as a trio, but after hearing Ellis audition, Foster and McElroy decided to create a quartet. At first, they selected the name "For You." They shifted to "Vogue", but ultimately settled on En Vogue, upon learning that another group had already claimed the Vogue moniker.

A manufactured R&B group.

You seriously can't tell me you can't hear the difference in style.

Whether it's r&b or not is just a matter of musical style, that r&b style will have become less popular after a while I suppose like everything does once people have heard too much of it. Pop is always changing it's style to suit the musical climate of the time.

And I think the 80s was more about pop in general than the 90s, so some pop groups may have come to prominence in the 90s who wouldn't have done so well in the more competitive 80s.

Not too much, no. R&B is pop music.
