i saw that thread you made about that wave or whatever but i didn't post in there cause the white boy had the best song by far

all them niggas u listed ass

That's because mainstream rap is ran by the private prisons

you gotta take this gimmick back to the drawing board chief

dons cool tho

@op right, but I think it's because r&b fans are not as harsh as rap fans. Plus R&B artists are starting to see that Rap is not progressing like it is right now.

Lawsy?
yea he hard lmfao

You not wrong

rap is progressing heavy in the underground outside the overdone opium/yeat lane

how is Daniel Caesar ass lol

No gimmick brother, just a country boy from MN

-white man

I'm starting to see that R&B is embracing the Afrobeats and Amapiano wave more than the s*** rap is making right now. I won't be surprised that R&B starts to find it's mainstream resurgence soon

@op

I don't care for any of the artists listed besides Kali, but yeah R&B been hitting for the last few years honestly.

Don Toliver been doing loads of afrobeats collabs he really tight with wizkid and rema

Chris brown 6lack and Brent also super tapped in to African music in general

I feel like in a way rnb music lasts longer in my rotation than a lot of hype rap songs

Tbh, I'm ready to hear some lovely, smooth lyrics with vocals than rap lyrics with autotuned singing like it's a romantic evening in section 8.

I think this is pretty clear

I like both the smooth raw s*** Brent does and the vibey autotune but still soulful don toliver/partynextdoor vibe, there's a place for both in this genre.

I think drake should do a whole rnb album id take it over another her loss type album

Alex Isley, Yaya Bey, Victoria Monet, Kelela, Ambre, Keiyaa, Samara Joy, Dinner Party, Marco McKinnis, Your Grandparents, Col3trane, Alfa Mist, Phabo, Joyce Wrice, Arin Ray, Ari Lennox, Khamari...like those all the R&B acts I been f***in with heavy for a few years or so now and I feel bad cause I know I'm forgetting people.

It's crazy how much better mainstream and underground R&B has been over mainstream and underground rap. R&B has lapped rap 10x over.

arin ray fire

Eh i still prefer rap

That s*** mid and washed who the f*** listens to PND anymore

Summer got a way bigger fanbase than him

loads of ppl listen to party, belong to the city and her way had a spike of streams in fact recently and break from Toronto has half a billion streams on Spotify when it barely had 200 million 3 years ago

we hating on kali and Brent? KTT is washed damn
