Monica ; I give her credit. She promotes and supports so many people.

Nicki came to the tour, and that's cute, but I really wanna see her promote her Queen like the Stan she says she is. Though I'm sure politics are involved

We of release she was posting about Chris also. That bitch is so real. One of the reasons why I'll always Stan.

Rnb music needs to reinvent itself. Create a new genre, incorporate new elements, explore new horizons.

People are just sick of all these delayed acrobatic vocals, all these same delayed ass beats and the imagery that goes with it.

There are plenty of edgy R&B artists out there (See: PBR&B). Personally, I appreciate the R&B artists who stay true to the genre and don't turn into Drake.

Monica always says this:
QuoteMore R&B artists need to support each other. Real support means touring together, forming alliances, dropping the ego and competitive spirit and rising up together. This means so-called mainstream R&B artists that get those major looks at radio or television need to reach out and down; to uplift someone else. Hip Hop gets it! Rap artists support each other. They are the perfect example of combining resources, forming alliances and winning together.

And i agree.  Especially the R&B females ...  their competitive spirit isn't in a healthy way. They all hate on, and shade each other   :dead: Lalah Hathaway sits up on twitter and does it all the time
what R&B females are hating on each other right now?

What R&B females do u see touring and promoting together doing duets? And with major names like Bey & Rih?

It's not happening. R&B doesn't have the voice it use to have.

I really hope Tamar and Mo keep their word and tour together. They could be a force if they do this right. Old & New school R&B
didnt Mary just tour with Tamar?
Bey, Kelly & Michelle get together like once every year
Faith put out her duet with Keke Wyatt, it got ignored
K Michelle and Tamar performed together at the BET awards
Lalah H and Chrisette did the Soul Train cypher
each example no one responds to

Maybe, there has to be some sort of agreement cause I remember when 'Bert posted about Chris last album. His management made sure to put " - Red Light Management" to verify it wasn't 'Bert promoting the album.  :uhh:

thats great. just need more of it consistently

No one is saying this will be the sole reason sales increase but it'll HELP. Not just when some labels force the girls together  :dead: that forced Tamar and K.michele mess. They'll never get on another stage together. literally shading each other days after the performance smh

Faith and Keke are friends and thats great, but even Faith had Issues with Fantasia backstage at a recent show on BET when Faith did the J.cole song. Some real catty shit about how long each of them were supposed to rehearse or some shit. Its ALWAYS some mess

Buy The Stars✨

yeah its mostly we need to support but how can we support when moat of todays rnb music just isnt good lol


i mean tyrse did all that HOOPIN and HOLLERIN but his album was HORR'' the only reason he sold that much cause he wouldnt shut up lolz

Young

There's no machine behind R&B anymore


RAY7

Ppl expect too much from female duets
Look at IABTM, Bey and Mary Love A Woman, Bey and Alicia Put It In A Love Song
always so many complaints
white ppl LOVED Jessie J and Ariana together even if the song wasn't the greatest
they pushed that shit to the top 10

throwintheTAL

The whole black ppl needing to support R&B argument is so slavely

tigernathan

I do like how Chris and Trey went on tour together and brought all those R&B acts as special guests. That was dope. The males def. show love more. Maybe, that's why many of them last longer in the business.
