Favorite R&B Artists?

[ILL]

What is R & B then? The beat, the singing, the subject...If you really hold R&B to it's denotation...Alot of the people you named aren'r R&B artist...

apparently you don't listen to real singers. maxwell, eric benet, r kelly, usher in the 90's, tyrese, brian mckinght, donell jones, avant, even ginuwine, d'angelo,. all of them sing real R&B. i remember last year when tyrese challenged all of these so called R&B singers to a show singing acapella meaning without instrument none of them would do it. because they're not true singers. they're folks talking over a beat. there are many r&b singers out there and they're getting looked over for these gimmicky artist who can't sing for shit. well none of their music will be played by me. i'm not trying to knock what folks are listening to but people need to quit calling those people R&B when they're not.

You stuck in the past.....most of those artist you mention are of a certain neo soul subgenre...let me guess you don't consider Lil Wayne hip hop....right?

correct spelling is terrell. and shes real R&B. but many have probably never heard of her. or the work that her and marvin did. if they go back and listen to marvin and her then maybe some of them can realize what R&B really is.

Sade >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You heard any of Maxwell's albums yet? wanna suggest them to you

no that music that he does isn't R&B. that's some kind of alternative stuff. that weeknd guy isn't R&B either. before someone ask. hes doing some kind of alternative music also. they need their own genre because they damn sure are not r&b singers.

denying young talent like Frank Ocean





lol @ the "real R&B" discussion though, we got an R&B elitist in here?
