    Me too but I’m oversaturated. I dont need any more simp niggas that cant sing without interesting sound or mature perspective & feelings. I’m not 15 anymore.

    felt, the trap&b sound has become a lil overdone imo

    It's some good R&B artists today when you look for them. But a lot of the ones I see getting hyped up who are most popular have oftentimes been extremely disappointing.

    Older rnb more simpy? Wtf. That word wasn’t really a big thing til Drake crying cuz he ran thru his girl phone songs started.

    The intro of Marvin Room is a real call?

    R&B is in a reset period after the “dark” wave of the last decade which was much needed just like we need a reset on hip hop with the trap sound being driven into the ground

    Part of R&B's decline is due to the fact that pretty much all these new artists are mid singers at best. They overshadow their vocals with cool production and creativity rather than trying to improve the most important part of R&B: your voice. There are a few bright stars vocally but s*** really sucks when you want a real talented singer. The era still cool

    Not really much generational R&B out right now. It's becoming a niche genre which I don't mind. Male talent is clearly lacking tho

    The queens are showing OUT! Jazmine Sullivan's EP is nuts.

    when it’s done right, it’s fantastic. unfortunately that era produced way too many copycats and uninspired music
