It's not even that R&B today is bad there's just no variety
it's either NyQuil tunez or a trap&B mess
SZA, Ella and Summer are the only popular newish girls that don't fall into that box which is probably why they're the most successful ones today
yea
I miss all the upbeat sunshiney bops
& a high energy dance mess versus these nyquil owts
!!!
Back then we had Mary, Faith, Monica, Keyshia & Kelly Price churning owt relatable anthems. Erykah Badu, India Arie & Jill Scott selling incense out of their backpacks while rocking a tribal headwrap... Mariah and Whitney Belting over knock and ballads...Beyonce, Ashanti, Usher & Chris Brown lashing us with a youthful Contemporary flavor... We had Janet & Cassie whispering over iconic pop n B instrumentals... Niggas like Jaheim & Lyfe Jennings singing felon jams... TLC, Brandy & MJ gliding over NASA Beats & even the fuckin One Hit wonders like Sunshine Anderson, Coko, Blu Cantrell, etc slayed for a bit
and the lack of groups suck too like wtf where's the material? am tryna look at it
