Well first of all it will be renamed "All the shyt (Your broke ass nikka wont do)"

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Like there wasn't vulgar R&B in the 90s

wasn't no "fukk you back to sleep" stop it. jodeci's "freakin you" would stright be "fukkin you" today

Jodeci and R kelly were cussin

Jodeci and R kelly were cussin

kellz did it later in his career and had way more versatility, dude had songs running the gamut, these new artists don't....and dropping a curse here and there isn't the same as being purely vulgar they way a lot of r&b artists/singers are now

 

[OfTheCross]

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?

I dapped you the day you made the thread and I'm repping you today. This is still true.

 

[Murkman]

You can blame r Kelly for that

He birthed all theses nikkas style

Mr. Golden Shower For My Lil' bytches

Yeah, he did because look how quickly R&B changed afterwards. nikkas ain't even trying to make it work on first base, jacking bytches and taking them straight home.

 

[International S.]

LOL I'm just imagining a bunch of Freddie Jackson and Luther Vandross tracks talking about beating the p*ssy up..

"Don't you wanna smash ...tooo night"

 

[Erratic415]

Hip Hop killed R&B
R&B be sounding like rap nowadays

I've felt that way for awhile...I remember even in the late 90s hearing someone say "Too many R&B singers want to be rappers and vice versa" and feeling it was true.

R&B has been vulgar or more overt sexually for quite some time but I think more so over the last 20 or so years

 

[Erratic415]

The GOAT with some vulgar tracks. The original title was "Sanctified p*ssy"

Crazy how this came out 14 years ago and applies more than ever now

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

This is why R&B is getting gentrified right now.

Have the black artists makling strip club anthems and thot jams
Have the white artists making them squeaky clean "real soul" music that goes mainstream and charts on billboard.

The hook is awful

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

R and B took it's passport and relocated to South Korea.






It's so sad that a genre responsible for bringing love, good vibes, and cured regrets would end up being a mess of it's former self.

While there are some artists like KING, Eric Roberson, Foreign Exchange, SiR, and a few others still trying to keep it alive, it's never going back to the good ole days unless a miracle happens.

 

[Wild self]

Yeah, and as more of this happens, more ratchedness becomes normalized.
