i just want great vocals and a fresh perspective in songwriting/content.. enough of the low-fi cursive singing/whispering these artists are doing.. this whole alt-rnb/atmosphric wave is soo stale now. I need more balance w/the subgnres.. not one particular rnb ‘sound’ oversaturating the market
sadly a lot of R&B singers think like rappers and eschew writers and/or actually penning lyrics.

a lot of their shyt is freestyling and it shows.

For instance, Chris Brown...for as catchy as some of his later hits are... needs better writers to truly transcend. Look at Miguel, dude is out there experimentally, but he's absolutely a lyrical monster when it comes to R&B records.

Chris Brown is out here kinda releasing the same song over and over.

Did not know people felt that Trey had a better discography than Chris


It seems like People don’t really identify Chris career by albums
Negged for not tagging me :mjgrin:

And yes Trey does have the collection of stronger albums . Chris that nikka tho . I still prefer to listen to Chris if you just said grab 50 random songs .

CB issue is his albums have too many songs that sound similar & aren’t cohesive.

lemme run thru this thread tho

Yeah these Brent Faiyaz, Bryson Tiller and 6lack types gotta go. PND and The Weeknd were two of my favorite artists but in retrospect they completely b*stardized the genre.

I thought I was the only who hated Faiyaz and 6lack.

Faiyaz is just boring to me, and 6lack might be the biggest cornball in r&b.

I won’t hate on Bryson since he seems like a pioneer to the sound, but he def has fallen off.

Brent cool . He gets repetitive tho & I hate the short song format . When singers do that it lets me know they weren’t creative to extend it longer.

6 I’ve never heard a project from just loosies

Bryson first album still go . Def has fallen off , I wouldn’t say pioneer tho . Took PND style & got more love shown

Speaking of singers damn shame August ruining his rep. His first two joints are personal favs of mine . You can literally hear the growth .

Chris is on another level, they’re just compared because they are from same era.

Brent cool . He gets repetitive tho & I hate the short song format . When singers do that it lets me know they weren’t creative to extend it longer.

August 1st album is one of my favorite albums of all time.

the second is ok but you tell he don’t have much label support, all the music he’s dropped after that has been pretty unforgettable

this thread was created because Nap spammed the other thread to death.

Can he be banned from this thread so we can have healthy R&B discussion. The other thread is still active for his spamming

Chris Brown needs writers.

Theres no reason Chris released all that music in the last 2 years and you can't recall any of them.
