every single from Anti is R&B btw..

every one

What about the rest of Rihanna's discography?

And Bruno's whole album is R&B.
she has pop songs but her base is R&B..
i also said Bruno makes R&B music..

LOONA.

You can't put Rihanna in a category with Maxwell or Fantasia. She doesn't have a single R&B album.

She's always been mostly Island Pop and started to dip into Urban later in her career. And even still that's the Trey Songz, Kelly Rowland, etc type of music. Not actual R&B.

v
oh girl!
she has always been an r&b girl and all over r&b radio
she just happens to make music that reaches pop audiences.

LOONA.

She's not

I still laugh how she skyrocketed to the top of the R&B charts after Billboard make that stupid rule change.     


GLOCK

I'll say this..
there should be more r&b categories
and they should be split into R&B/Soul and Contemporary R&B
rather than shoving them all together..
because it is unfair to box Lalah Hathaway against someone like Beyonce..

ill say that

Rihanna's a Rhythmic girl.... am not sure she makes R&B music that should be getting her nominated in those categories.

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.

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

Opinions indeed

"He's nothing but a wedding singer!"

With the amount of anger I see here, you'd think Bruno Mars was out here claiming he lived a thug life or something. Just being blatantly offensive or something. He sings R&B infused POP music.

And his father is a Puerto Rican man from Brooklyn. Like....

"He's not Black at all"

How do you know that? I see goddess obtained his DNA report prior to this session taking place.

Weren't you trying to say the same thing about cardi right when bodak went number 1 ?

In recent years Bruno Mars has made more R&B songs mainstream than majority of the people mentioned in this thread. There are so many factors that make this true but the guy definitely makes R&B music is talented AF and puts on a damn good show. I would go to is tour on any day.

what makes her more pop tho?

she isnt a conventional pop girl..

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

LOONA.

Beyonc? has actual R&B albums. The foundation of her music has always R&B, and then she crossed over into Pop. Rihanna doesn't have a Dangerously In Love or a 4.

She's always been mostly Pop with an Urban flair. Now she's mostly Urban.
