I've been listening to this girl for a while. I think she's from the UK and she does more folk-ish alternative music. I love both her projects.

YESSSSSSS. I feel like Charley never really got love from our known Black music institutions. He deserves.

a lot of music classify as r&b because the genre is so broad (by those who can't tell the difference) and whenever black music began to modernize into r&b, even if the music predates the word being coined, like doo wop, etc
