Vulgarity killed RnB

[GunRanger]

this is a good song. when i heard it, i was like



then the chorus comes on, and he says let me fukk you back to sleep



why not come up with something better? it's just cursing for no reason. Brown has a lot of songs that would be good withoutthat shyt. Same with Bryson Tiller cursing up a storm. Why?

Not a huge RNB fan but at the same time ive noticed this shyt as well. Vulgar is the perfect word

Yup RnB songs are best when the lyrics are subtle and use metaphors and innuendo as opposed to flat out saying I want fukk

 

[Redwood]

R&B was supposed to be smooth and seductive. Nowadays they sound like borderline hip-hop songs.

 

[RIPBIGSWOLE]

I like the radio edit version anyway.(sex you back to sleep)

Vulgarity is only a problem for you dusty nikkas tryna fukk old hoes that like to pretend they too good to get fukked to some "she pop that p*ssy on a moooondayyyyyy"

All the young bytches eat that shyt up. Y'all crying talking about vulgarity but if the hoes still letting us run through em when the cuts come on then what the fukk is really the problem?


Stop chasing Mary-Jean n get you a LaShay

cornball antics, shallow plodding music and faux edginess killed RnB

Homie coulda just said put you back to sleep or rock you back to sleep and it would've had the same effect

Trey Songs "Trey Day" was the last authentic r&b album i heard

Good thread.

When you grew up on R&B, you definitely started seeing the difference in how the songs were being made. I remember when it was mad rare to hear a curse word on an R&B record. Jodeci was considered to be on the edgier side of R&B, and you'd rarely hear them curse on the albums. The emotion of what R&B was before, is kinda gone now. It's more like slower Hip Hop records with dudes who can't sing.

Them nikkas don't really sing silk jodeci kells could talk as dirty as they want because they had the vocals
