[I love Latina women]

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

[Khadafhi]

Singers want to rap n rappers want to sing. All this shyt sounds the same

 

[Insensitive]

It's been that way for a minute now on a mainstream level.
However, I do feel there are still musicians making R&B that isn't where
they just sing over a Hip-Hop beat.

convergance. Check all the real young up and cooming rappers, they can all sing & rap. Trend started from Drake

Aubrey is the only one who can really sing tho. The rest of these nikkas are using autotune and sound like shyt singing if they don't use it.

Cacs are still buying albums. They ain't checking for anything that sounds like Avant.

and shes white.

I didn't say she was r&b...I said she movin' units selling ballads.

Why can't anybody else move units selling ballads?

Adele aint R&B

Sam Smith is very succesful singing Ballads too.

This has nothing to do with this convo and you know it

 

[The God Poster]

The money is in hiphop.

What is his advice. Be boxed in a have a glass ceiling by being purely R&B?

No but you can still drop quality R&B
Tell me this shyt is hot

 

[Taadow]

Cacs are still buying albums.

1. Are they the only ones?
2. You think they don't like R&B?

Again, I didn't say Adele was R&B - I said she's moving units singing ballads.
That does have something to do with this convo, because I quoted somebody saying you can't move units singing ballads.

 

[The God Poster]

Fax.

I think the artistry still exists but it's extremely difficult to monetize. Its hard to tell these dudes to make ballads when ballads don't move units. What they don't realize is Trap and B from these old nikkaz don't move units either.

Might as well stay true. Tank I'm talking to you....

no one is saying make ballads. It seem like they lack the ability to make a consistent R&B album without the garbage In between .

Labels gotta understand black R&B ain't selling as is & forcing it to sound like a rap mixtape won't help

What's worse is a lot of these rappers can't sing and the singers can't rap. Hell, most arent even that nice in their own genre to begin with.
