8 Reasons Why R&B Has Died In The Black Community

[Ronnie Lott]

RnB is dead because it's dead

I'm not checking for Future, but that bullshyt he making is not dead unfortunately

You're so gatdamn out of touch with reality

There shouldn't be a next Michael Jackson, that's part of the problem.

Every artist is their own entity.

Do I have to explain myself literally every single sentence

the next Michael Jackson TALENT WISE, and the impact wise with music

he's not that, he's on soulja boy's level which is why he boxing him lmao

 

[Master Teacher]

Now you're talking culturally

Again, it's evolved. And the "Culture" of it started changing in the 90's when they started blurring the lines between hip hop and RnB.. Can't blame something for changing over 20 years but yet you're trying to blame music today when all it did was evolve from the 90's and on.

But guess what, RnB is still being created and performed but guess who's not checking for it. The ones complaining it's dead... Music wise and culturally


And Chris Brown was supposed to be the next Chris Brown. There will never be another Michael Jackson and thinking that wouldn't be intelligent.

R&B use to be the driving force of black music, it barely exists today, if you don't see that has a problem and act like it's not, you are part of the problem

By next Michael Jackson I mean that spot as the best singer in the world

just like Lebron is the Jordan of his time

You're so gatdamn out of touch with reality

R&B is a niche genre in 2017, this is a fact of reality

the fact you had a list of artist who began their careers in the 90's is proof of that

the fact you think andeson paak is an R&B artist is proof of that

 

[Ronnie Lott]

the elements i just mention which you quote. take Micheal Jackson for example. with out berry gordy who signed him and his brothers how far will they go? he had black writers write hit songs for them. 2 he had a black woman= Suzanne depasse handle their look and stage presentation. he had black choregraphers, teach them move. he had black and white discjockeys to play their music. bottom line you don't have a black clique running the show like this anymore.

No disrespect but you're all over the place man. You can't say for sure what artist doesn't have a black choreographer, black dj's etc

of course you do. the songs that are being release today has no connection with what we do out here in the streets. too many songs deal with lust and fukking. there is more to it then that.

You conveniently skipped over Ro James, BJ the Chicago Kid, John Legend and a few others. If I also listed artists who started in the 90s and they are still putting out quality R&B music in2016-17, how could R&B be dead?

What are you talkin about with the "streets" shyt There are tons of songs out there that aren't about lust and fukkin. YOU JUST DONT LISTEN TO OTHER shyt

just like Lebron is the Jordan of his time

Again, blame that on the 90's RnB artists that blurred the lines between RnB and hip hop the younger generations just adopted and improved the style.

And Lebron is nothing like Jordan, not even close

Lebron is the Lebron of his generation, not Jordan. Chris Brown is still an excellent singer and Michael was known for being a total package, not the best singer in the world. He was The King Of POP... Not RnB. He was making good music, same as CB but Chris fukked up his image by whipping Rhiannas ass. Changed Rhiannas image as well.. shyt happens, they both still made/make good music but you would still complain because he's not Michael Jackson...

Lebron is nothing like Jordan
He's the best player of his generation the ICON of the sprot

just like Jordan was the Magic and Bird of his generation

IT has nothing to do with his play style

stop being stupid just for the sake of arguing

i'm talking about the marketing aspect of releasing a single to a core fan base. most black artist record music that every one else is doing. they write what every one else is writing. as artist they have no connection with the streets where they would know what we like

To have the opinion that you have, you clearly haven't listens to all of the R&B out here. Just admit that you haven't heard these albums in full

Ro James "El Dorado
BJ the Chicago kid "in my mind"
Tank "sex love and pain"
Joe "my name is Joe"
John Legend "darkness and light"
Anderson Pak "Nx Wxrries
Solange "a seat at the table"
Maxwell "a black summer night"
Usher "hard 2 love"

Again... LEBRON IS NOTHING LIKE JORDAN.

Then you got the nerve to call me stupid while thinking this forced ass frontrunner is anything close to Jordan...


Lets just stay on topic with music

 

[Cadillac]

If R&B is gone according to some of y'all. Then what are Music soulchild, Rapheal Saadiq, Anthony Hamilton,etc?


Just asking

 

[Master Teacher]

Again... LEBRON IS NOTHING LIKE JORDAN..


But lets stay on topic with music

Lebron isn't a icon and face of the NBA

okay

live in fantasy worlds

Chris Brown was primed to be a music icon, now he's just a b tier rapper
