All you youngsters, let it be known that R&B died on YOUR watch

[Danie84]

Where I Wanna Be, A Nu Day, Alicia Keys and Amerie's first two albums was the last time I bought a gang of r&b albums. Do they even make r&b like that now?

I didn't include Erykah, Jill, or Maxwell, because I consider that Soul.

Oh, early Keisha Coles, and Keri & Estelle debuts were good too.

A matter fact, the the Europeans took over r&b: Craig David, Ms, Dynamite, Amy, and Adele

Trey Wrongz should be shot with dart in his throat for being a poor man R.Kelly and churning out filth after filth

She and her sister got naked in a video shoot for some indie white band,
They released the video of it,
You can search for it if it is still on the Internet.
Basically,
All the sista soulja/bohemian steeze she act upon,
I basically through it out of the window.
It all became an act.
If it was some brothers that did it,
She would have flooded earth with th gates of an open hell.

The band was the flaming lips... A very well respected band....

The only problem with me was the song was wack.

R&B cant be dead when Future's still alive.

channel orange is the album of the year. in any genre

That goes to show you that how far music and R & B has fallen.

So how do we feel about B2K?

 

[Black Magisterialness]

It all started with that Crunk & B shyt.

Ciara,those Cherish ho's,Brook Valentine,Nivea........I blame the south.

and the titty bar killed R&B, the stripper anthem replaced the slow jam.

Random thought. But for the past couple of days i've been thinking about how underrated Musiq Soulchild is.

r&b got so bad i forgot people still make that kind of music

Please stop with the cliche complaints about how bad today's music is. There is so much great music out there, you just have to find it.

R&B is not as strong a genre as it used to be but there are still good artists with great songs out there.

Miguel just put out a new album which is way better then his first which was great in it's own right.

It's sad that the same people complaining about R&B being dead probably won't support an excellent album anyway.

slow dancing music is a forgotten art for the youngins cause they on they high sugar/ energy drinks while blasting them 808s/ techno songs. The generation that was raised on Lil Jon seem to not appreciate slow tempo music.

What killed R&B is the same thing that is killing hip hop. People trying to cater to cacs and what they like. In the past black artists did not do that and the white youth loved it because it was something different to them.

^^well-said. white people arent even intrigued by black folks all like that anymore.
