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:     

R&B isn?t just one thing, though. Cuz Brandy ain?t really in that category either if that?s the case :dead: 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
Bran is futuristic but outside of Human everything else has a lot of R&B/Soul

She's not

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

that was only bullshit because nothing about ?Diamonds? is R&B or hip hop :dead:
definitely but I don?t think it was Diamonds :dead:
It was Birthday Cake I think
was it? I remember it being diamonds that knocked PID down to #16 or something crazy because of iTunes sales but u could be right

LOONA.

true

I like how Glock categorized it all tho

ya rock muh world.

Haven't read the whole Bey vs Rih ...who's more greasy debate (if that's what it is)

But I'd say both of them have a mixture of mess. There are times where they get all popped owt and sweet. and there are times where they dig downe and get ratchet with some bonafide knock. :woohoo:

I'd say 'fas is more guttah with it sometimes. Just a bit. That could be argued down tho. But they do the same thing to me. A good variety of "here's some mess for you White people" and "OK let's get down to bidness real quick" chunes.

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
