Thanks, love! Just finished listening. I don?t consider these folks R&B artists. Hmmm I get what he?s saying, I?m just trying to think of examples that make sense?true R&B artists who are white.
I don't think it's a case of us considering them as R&B artists, because in all reality they are not. But they do make soul music and artists like Jazmine Sullivan could make a song like "Hello" and it's a flop. But Adele made it a BIG success.
Justin Timberlake was apart one of the biggest pop boy bands and he started making R&B records and was successful with that, while other R&B artists are either being sent to Urban AC radio and not being heard at all and the music they are making isn't that different.
Umm Kelly been doing R&B since her first album.
Fuck yall

I'm more irritated by people who clearly were in another lane and suddenly decided to go deep fried once they saw some $$$.
There are many people who seem genuinely influenced by R&B music.
Post Malone is one of them - when I heard White Iverson I was like wow this is amazing
I dunno, it's just something that's deep within the song that makes you feel as if there's true inspiration there, and not a gimmick or convenient appropriation.
I wasn't surprised when I read that he grew up in a musical family that exposed him to all genres of music.
The mix of rock/hip-hop/R&B he does is fucking sick. And it seems so authentic.

Yeah I never got fake from him
I saw an interview and that boy is HOOD :dead:

Quote from: tame the ruckus. on August 08, 2018, 01:40:22 PM
This was a bop but I low-key was like :udontlookok: at all the appropriation.
Blacks in the field clappin with me ya'll! Soul sistah! Nigga-approved!

I wouldn't call Kelly a wannabe R&B singer but it definitely was a side eye moment for me.

Contemporary, I should have clarified. Jon and Teena are not current artists. There are many that rely on R&B elements, inflections, etc. I think his categorization threw me off.
Daley. He's super underrated.
Daley is favored? How so? He has no hit records here in the States and he?s not the most critically acclaimed import. In fact, he?s incredibly underrated (and trying to slide into Bran?s DMs for a collab.)
I?m genuinely curious about Eric?s argument. It sounds good in theory, but I am trying to find concrete examples.

True! I wouldn?t say he?s favored, but he is a contemporary R&B artist who is white.
I didn't say he was favored though. If anything he's underrated and imo, much better than Sam Smith.
I don?t agree with Joe?s statement about music JUST being entertainment. Look at the Blues, Gospel, Jazz, Disco, Hip-Hop, House, etc. Those forms were birthed from specific political and social experiences. They were birthed as an act of survival unique to black, queer and trans folk. However, I don?t agree without Eric either. He comes from the school where if it isn?t imagined as respectable it isn?t art. That is also a lie. Hip-Hop has been the catalyst for so much social and cultural change. As much as the "mainstream" (white folks), refuse to acknowledge this or show up monetarily for black artists, just look at media and see all the en vogue dances, the Trap beats that every artist wants to reference, and look at who is attending the Migos concerts and before Migos who was attending NWA, Snoop concerts, etc.
I think of Boy George but he's not totally a true blue R&B artist although he's incorporated those elements into his music and was highly successful in his prime.

!!! For sure. Daley is dope. I was referring back to Eric?s argument about white R&B acts being favored. Thanks for the example.

bbbbhbbgghhhjh wtf :uhh:
r these cotton fields
Soul music is not rhythm and blues. Just because Adele yells and screams doesn?t make her an R&B artist. Both she and Sam sing SOUL music. If she sang a song like Angel of Mine or Let It Flow, then she?d be considered R&B.
I mean, white soul is a real thing...
I don?t get R&B from song like Rolling in The Deep and Someone Like You. I get alternative lite rock vibes.
