Who is H.E.R.'s fanbase? I can look at Summer Walker and know who she resonates with off top.

lol.

I ain't even know she was from the Bay this whole time, until recently. She can't even get folks from her town to recognize her. let alone general public.

every talented though.

SZA's lane is the one that I think is getting cluttered cause she hasn't been able to be consistent after her release.

Summer Walker does the hoe/thot lane better and is more open about it, SZA is "kinda" about that life with her music, but Summer takes it all the way there and it resonates more.
Then you also have Ari Lennox who's ascended a lot since SZA got hot. SZA delivered with her debut, but her troubles performing and the lack of music to come since, is a concern... especially looking at the landscape for the artists who have gotten bigger since she was hot.

They both are better in the mainstream because they are out there with their sexuality more, and are older. H.E.R. had to be a little closeted when she first came out and that's why her gimmick was what it was. Would it have been a good look to have rolled H.E.R. making the same kind of content as SZA?

I agree with this

SZA next album cycle is a big question mark

Ari Lennox ain’t it.

Lorine Chia is one of the contemporary female R&B artists that is right there at the cusp at mini-superstardom or more success.

I fuuck with her voice and sound. She's Cameroonian and has that Erykah Badu/Jill Scott/Chrisette Michele hybrid voice.

She's early 20s.

She's cute and smashable, just not "sexy" like that. She has classy or bohemian/grungy sex appeal. Not talking her dark skin or hair, just missing the "it" factor, Unfortunately...it makes a difference. Just my opinion.

I like her vibe just the way it is, cause it matches her voice and sound. The music is cool, introspective, and sexy, but the "it" factor is missing.

Even big boned Lizzo exudes sexiness.

I can tell her team is trying because her last video had her in the bed trying to be sexy. I hope she gets some connection with wider audiences and some hits....

Hopefully some high caliber lyricists and R&B singers see she has great potential and feature or work with her.

The Game likes her voice




She has some dope solo tracks

I don't know what the next play is for H.E.R. honestly, she started off so great. I don't think she's a "Boo'd Up" kind of artist. I don't know what a hit even looks like from her at this point. She does extremely well with duets and features, maybe that's what she has to do.

Maybe shes just a artist that makes good music

The boo'd up girl album was ass

Why dont we wait tell she announces her first full lenght album instead thinking she needs a single which many artist like her dont need

If singles are so important than why did she have so much success?

She won a grammy & went gold off pure good music not 1 hot single on the radio, top 100 billboard & all the top streaming playlists

All them wack rnb hoes make the same song over n over

Her is the Angela winbush of her generation. Can sing, play multiple instruments, write her own songs and will never be as popular as her peers that only do 1 of the 3. The thing about Her is that she has longevity and will be around for a long time. These other females are only as good as their next song writers or producers.

A lot of artists are doing that downtempo "thot r&b" yet not all of them are selling. In fact most aren't. When you look at the numbers, SZA was the main one who had massive success - going plat plus multiple hit records that went plat. Nobody really came close to that. Now Summer Walker is here and people are looking around wondering what happened, "how can my artist do the same." I can't explain how one chick connects and another doesn't. But I'd imagine HER's image (or lack thereof) hurts. These chicks want to see you. They want to see you tweet about heartbreak, they want to see your IG posts without makeup on, etc. These chicks are living vicariously through these singers and you can't do that when a chick isn't showing her face, isn't dressing "hot," etc.
