bro these niggas need to listen to a brandy, darnell jones, ginuwine record or something they lost fr fr
YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Not really but okay lol.
that nigga really do just be crooning lol i peeped
Disrespectful ass thread man
ungrateful fans
I may throw Dream and Ty dollars in here too
EDM pop r&b was WOAT era
Yeah 100% can’t listen to that don’t wake me up wave without wanting to puke
abel isn’t r&b
trilogy snd kissland are dark wave
BBTM literally has production from one of the most successful pop producers. you can tell max martin is all over that record. it’s a f***ing pop record
name one r&b song on starboy
h&m music bro, the lead singles are more electronic than anything they’re LITERALLY PRODUCED BY DAFT F***ING PUNK
MDM is the closest to r&b but even then it still has more dark wave and electronic influence than anything else.
you don’t know what you’re talking about bro bryson tiller is infinitely more r&b than abel and that’s fine.
cmon. TRILOGY AND KISSLAND ARE DARKWAVE? Both are R&B, not even close to pop or darkwave primarily. why are you niggas acting so obtuse now? Weeknd is apparently closer to Dead Can Dance, In the Nursery, Depeche Mode and Gary Numan than his traditional r&b peers now
only reason Kiss Land is coined as darkwave on Wikipedia because of the interesting productions on some songs like Adaptation and Tears in the Rain similar to In The Nursery or something. and critics brought that up first.
I never said BBTM isn't pop, I said it's still r&b at the heart. Is Thriller pop or r&b? it's BOTH.
MDM is also R&B, it's not darkwave at all. it's electronic productions make it alternative R&B.
also dude I just explained that Bryson Tiller is still r&b, but he's close to pop rap. and that Weeknd is closer to rnb than him.
that nigga really do just be crooning lol i peeped
You feel me? Lol. I cant be finessed. Like I try to like his music aesthetically, but something just off and Im guessing its the notes.
Like Usher's Climax?
More like his DJ Got Us Falling In Love song
I can pick a bunch of Weeknd songs that are rnb from his last 4 albums. I just picked the top 2 Bryson Tiller songs
You could also easily pick a bunch of songs for Bryson that are rnb, and a bunch for weeknd that are pop. Wasily
the way certain users get on their high horse when it comes to discussing R&B on here is so funny
Yea Chris Brown dropped like 100 songs in the last few years and majority are rnb lol.
Surprisingly indigo was more purely rnb than most of his peers but it’s Chris so people aren’t gonna want to hear it
Drake
CB
?
I think he means more so R&b purists, not mainstream pop stars who cross genres.
In my opinion Miguel is very underrated and is the most important R&b act of the past 10 years, even more so the Frank, weeknd, or PND.
maybe if the genre hasn't stagnated musically for the last decade it could be bigger
Weeknd working with the backstreet boys producer making karaoke mj music soyall gotta stop mentioning him lol.
