shouldn't a supposed R&B veteran have a bigger fanbase than a mediocre rapper debut?

r&b lost for this :snoop:

its just crazy to me that these established r&b vets are being outsold by rappers. Ushers another example, supposed r&b/pop icon with millions of fans and sells 128k first week

Usher’s New Album Sells 128,000 Copies First Week In Stores

its great for hiphop tho i guess :manny:
this is the product of the labels being able to merge rnb and hip hop into one blob..........rnb sounds like hip hop(pick your artist) and hip hop sounds like rnb(example drake) now its no real diff so whiteyz look at it all the same today....tre is presented in the media as a rapper sometimes

Trey presents himself as a rapper though with those #Lemmeholdatbeat mixtapes.

Pretty much all R&B records have sold around the same amount this year.

This is what happens when nikkas wanna make weak ass singles and house music instead of staying true to what got em here. Usher sold a ton of records when he was making real music. "You make me wanna" and "Nice and Slow" was certified knockers. Dude switched his style and went house/pop and been flopping since.
