the only thing I feel about Bruno is that it is unfair that he gets tossed into the black categories at all the award shows..
he is a pop singer who does R&B songs.. really unfair advantage but that's it.
He is very upfront with his appreciation for blacks and how they have inspired him!

Rihanna also gets placed in the R&B categories at award shows but no one complains about that...lol
n
rihanna is r&b tho
and she is also black..
her r&b tunes are serviced like R&B records as well..

Rihanna is not an R&B artist

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 :dead:

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.

:dead:     

there are several different forms of rhythm and blues  :plzstop:

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!

Anti is a contemporary r&b album with Pop gems on it.

"work" is, it's def not hip hop  :plzstop:
it's an R&B dancehall infusion


Not rnb dance hall infusion.

FlowerBomb

Traditional R&B, Contemporary R&B, Alternative R&B, then there's different fusions with soul, pop, rock, hip hop, dancehall ect
Black music doesn't have to follow one format
Do "Kiss It Better" & "Love On The Brain" really sound like Hip Hop songs to you? :ummwhat:

4 is not some b cox type R&B..
and dangerously in love has "pop" records on them

the only difference is that some of rihanna albums have EDM tracks on it..
please..

rih and bey are both one in the same..
if rih is pop
so is beyonce

f

Y'all main arguement about Rihanna in stan battles is that she's some super diverse genre bending artist.

Rock! Folk! Experimental!

Don't try to act like her & Bey are similar now.  :dead:
