Just stick to making R&B music. Imho, Tank has no mainstream appeal.

Everyone isn?t meant to be a pop star, but l do feel like Tank makes good music. Some of his shit sounds better than a lot of the shit we call ?Male R&B? today. Not to mention, he?s written and produced hits for several  R&B artists.

I just feel like he never gets his due. Don?t care what nobody say.

No I believe he makes great music. I just never bothered to listen though outside of a few singles. I just don't think he has the mainstream appeal to attract a broader audience. Just stick to making R&B music for your core fan base.

I agree. ThAts why i said everyone isn?t meant to be a pop star

I hear you about getting his just due
I think it?s slowly coming though. He?s gonna mess up if he tries pop music though. Even if he does BOTH ppl will ignore that and call him a sell out
I do think he should write for pop artists. It would definitely get him more money from behind the scenes. White ppl love SOUL from other white ppl

Nothing wrong with trying it.

Its nice to see folks like JT and JLo commenting and being supportive.

I agree with Jen,

Do it ALL. There's a way to infuse more mainstream sounds and sing about broader subject matters. He can make a cohesive body of work that has a more mainstream sound without being too far from the core R&B sound he's use to.

I say do it.

I place artists like him, Keyshia Cole, etc inside the chitlin circuit. They're just not meant to be pop stars or have the mainstream appeal to be one. But it doesn't negate the fact that they make great music period.

She had potential to do sum Mary J Mess at her peak but didn?t go through with it all the way.
