She's more R&B than bruno, i know that. even her album tracks if we AREN'T talking singles lol

people like  Fauntleroy laced her with R&B IMO. it may not be the old school B.cox ballad kind, but hey.

Fauntleroy wrote that whole Bruno album. Rihanna is a pop artist that makes R&B songs. Just like Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars.

what makes her more pop tho?

she isnt a conventional pop girl..

she is an r&b girl who reaches pop audiences period

Bruno?s recent album is a new edition rehash anyway. I?m speaking on bruno as a whole, not the exception that this latest album is.

He?s pop to me. Grenade and all them other corny ass songs

yea, like Locked Outta Heaven etc
He?s Pop, so is she

[GLOCK]

Beyonce has never made a Pop Album / Outside of IASF and even those were very R&B rooted.

boy IASF wasn?t rooted in no damn R&B

She completely flipped and went for pop hit after pop hit. It just didn?t happen outside of single ladies

im crying honestly 

[ya rock muh world.]

yo quiero dinero

[b7]

she is genre bending..
yet her base is always R&B
what is so hard to understand lol
she just pulls all of this off better than beyonce

if rih is pop.. so is beyonce. Flat owt

It's never been R&B.

Rih has nevenr given a Brandy, Faith Evans, Maxwell, Fantasia, Jaz Sullivan, Brian McKnight ect etc etc type of mess. That's R&B. Rihanna is Urban & Pop. She doesn't have a single R&B album and her making an R&B record every blue moon doesn't change anything.

     

R&B isn?t just one thing, though. Cuz Brandy ain?t really in that category either if that?s the case her and Jazmine/faith Maxwell and those girls are not the same. Ew

You could argue Brandy was more pop/urban soul or whatever tf with the exception of TwoEleven. It can be argued that she?d never made a pure R&B album until 2012 with this line of thinking

there are several different forms of rhythm and blues 

even brandy doesnt make Jill scott or mazwell type R&B..She doesnt even give jaz sullivan

and brian is different from all the artist youve listed!

DEAD

!!!! Omg   I?d damn near be offended if i were Bran ssssssdd

Love Jaz? and Jill Tho. too damn cool

[Buy The Stars✨]

Needed Me, Work, Love on the Brain, Kiss it better and bitch better have my money are all r&b records

See I think we have different definitions on what r&b is.

Yeah those were hip hop songs to me lolz def not rnb

R&B is much more than just Jermaine Dupri and B.cox, guys. Them days are over

I want those days back

[LOONA.]

And yh Bruno is basically a Pop artist who experiments with Funk/Soul/Doo Wop whatever.

Fake woke gurs are acting like he's trying to be Luther Vandross or something. Bruno's music is super niche and generic and it works for him.

Everybody that I mentioned has made an R&B album.

You can say whatever but Rihanna is not R&B period.

Literally said the same shit 
These girls don?t know shit

Put the shit to the side and call a thing a thing

[RAY7]

Wait though cuz
Ego, Hello, Why Don?t You Love Me, Disappear, Video Phone, Scared Of Lonely

'fas is hood as fuck when she wants to be.

bday >>>>

But honestly back to the topic.

Why didn't they mention Drake's fake Caribbean mess or all these white boys with face tattoos and trash ass rap music talmbout nigga every 5 seconds in their lyrics?

Or how about all the black artists who abandoned R&B to start acting like rappers. Bitches! Hos! Emo! Weed!

I usually side with the girls when they bring up appropriation but they picked the least problematic example. Bruno is always vocal about his influences and stays perched at the black award shows. Alot of black artists are too conceited to even give props to their predecessors and only go to the white mess.

And they fussing over grammys and shit when they don't want your black ass there to begin with.   

i agree with this all the way

He?s musically late to me overall (great performer tho) but i never really thought of culture vulture mess or whatever people are talking about. 

[ya rock muh world.]

GODmation is urban knock downe as well.

I love when she taps into that side of her. I think that's the real 'fas to be honest.

She just needs to clean it and soften it up a bit sometimes to make sure she doesn't lose that wider appeal
