    The internet also was in shambles over Miguel publicly saying he’s better than Frank. Add that “jealous of Frank” perception with the leg drop as things that have been uphill battles for him. Miguel IMO is still the overall king of R&B this era in terms of vocal ability, quality of projects, and having hit records for himself and others. Also since The Weeknd transitioned to pop plus Frank has never repped being R&B and Channel Orange was his last R&B sounding project

    Miguel to this day:

    He’s significantly better and justified in saying so. Imagine not knowing Chris Brown has been king of R&B after Usher though.

    I got hella pushback for mentioning Miguel in that "Frank vs Weeknd" thread and mentioning he outperformed them as an R&B artist during when all 3 and Alt-R&B/Neo-Soul were all huge.

    Those are mostly white kids and people who just discovered R&B last decade. They don't know any better.

    Idk why but I haven’t listened to anything past kaleidoscope dream I needa get on that

    Miguel has no misses in his discography while The Weeknd got two. Frank got the love of art hoes and takes advantage of his fan base by cucking them frequently.

    Miguel just provides outstanding music without all the extra "elusive artist" bullshit, and to me, it's appreciated.

    If we're gonna compare Miguel to Frank and Weeknd...Something about him doesn't "grab" me like Frank and Weeknd

    • beautiful voice
    • good songs from what I've heard

    But his style isn't for me and it isn't appealing enough for me to have to listen to his bodies of work.

  • Mar 20, 2020

    great artist

    love KD and Wildheart

    not as much W&L but still a good project. hyped for his next one

    Do Miguel, Ro James and BJ the Chicago Kid make music for a different demographic to Frank Ocean and The Weeknd?

    If yes, who is that demographic? If not, where is the overlap?

    Only people who are really passionate about music know Miguel, Ro James, BJ, Lucky Daye, Pj Morton.

    People who pretend to know music like Frank and The Weeknd. Mostly suburban white kids. I say this as a former white suburban kid who liked both until I realized they aren’t nearly as good as the aforementioned artists

    Nah after awhile you get sick of it lmao ESPECIALLY with how Frank goes with it.

    Like I won't stop an artist from doing what they wanna do, but I ain't interested in it, and I'm not about to let these niggas play about s*** that I ordered. Gave you my money stop f***in around with what I ordered.

    Really?

    Hmm. I thought people who grew up around Church / Sunday Service and/or Gospel music would naturally gravitate towards PJ and BJ.

    And maybe I was incorrect in grouping Miguel with them.
