Is 80's R&B >>>>>>90's

[beejus]

I'm not feeling 60's R&B like that ... I guess because they used it so much in movies that it seems almost corny now.

Plus I'm feeling the 10's

The new batch of artists coming up now have next ...

Who in the 10's should I be checking out? Besides Leon Bridges I don't feel like there is much.

 

[Fukwatutalkinwatisaylaw]

80s slick production

That's a good song though

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

90s was better. Ginuwine, usher, tevin Campbell, jon b, joe, jodeci, r kelly, Mary j blige, swv, mariah Carey, whitney houston, boyz II men, bell biv devoe, tlc, en vogue, destiny`s child, jagged edge, blackstreet boyz, keith sweat, Maxwell, brian McKnight, babyface>>>>>>>>>80s r&b.


And that ain't even everybody

The line between R&B and Rap is so blurred ... but here are some ...

Good looking I'll have to check some of these artist out. Currently I'm listening to 80's R&B on Pandora. Makes work so much better.

You know it's been a long day when I thought y'all was talking bout the 10's as in 1910

Unless y'all are

The 10's so far isn't better than the early 2000's but there is still some heat. It's just not in the top 40 like it used to be. New sounds for sure but the vocals so far aren't as great.

 

[IllmaticDelta]

That's a good song though

I like the song but the production is too glossy. I like R&B/Soul to be rawer and more organic sounding.

Check out my thread

Official thread for current/modern R&B based music that's not being heard by the masses/top 40 radio

I'm one of those types that when I hear a song too much I stop appreciating it /hate it.
I'm not saying that it isn't good but I heard it too much to really appreciate it and think of it as something I would want to just zone out and listen to if that makes any sense (as I'm typing I know that it doesn't) but that's my pov.

....but that's what makes those songs of that era classic/timeless.

1960's

That's my main gripe with those examples is that those R&B beats sound too close to HipHop beats. Before, even when the R&b was influenced by HipHop, it was still easy to tell the difference between the two.
