and we can't say what would've happened if Usher did Blurred Lines or Suit and Tie (which WOULD have fit his style)
until he actually steps up to the plate and creates
Why did Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson get sued and had to switch them credits to include Trinidad James and Gap Band?
e

wait i missed that?? when did that happen?

these white artists are SOOOO innovative though?
but they're getting sued one by one
Prince needs to get at Justin Timberlake next
Prince needs to sue Timbaland

Bentley!

AIDS!

What's innovative about what the white artists doing?
It's just commercial Urban music with a white face, opposed to the pop music music we've been accustomed to for years lol
'Daring!' 'Different!'
R&B artists are stuck in a rut arm, it's a big stagnant, but it'll refresh itself soon
There's a new crop of urban artists just starting out and their brand of R&B isn't popular yet

Nobody complains when white people make the same mindless pop music, but now r & b isnt good enough? Smh

ssssssss

Jayd' ... the truth is Adele ain't providing anything new per se, but it's just how she's doing it and how she's executing.

you can't knock her hustle and try to say "oh well a black artist has done that"

name one black rnb artist that would record Hello or Water Under The Bridge or Love in The Dark

like... you have to give the girl credit
she's great at what she does :dead:

Adele's different vocal delivery over "Forever don't last" ....  :dead: it would STILL be @ #1 IMO

Masterpiece sounds like a 80's pop ballad IMO
Adele on that would be a hit
Why not Jazmine?

RekeRig

right. and it wasn't about greasy vocals cuz Jazmine kept it VERY light on record :dead: there are not a bunch of runs on
her studio project at all

AIDS!

Right if Adele sang 'After The Hurricane' or 'Good Enough'
Ch...

You would.

Bentley!

and even if they did, you have to factor in the correct delivery

even Jessie J couldn't do what 'Dele does, it's because 'Dele gives a song what it needs

I could only imagine 'Tasia hollering over Hello. She's talented vocally, but we're keeping it real in this thread, she would've done TOO much!
