I think male R&B is just evolving. Hate to say it but male R&B now is Future, NBA Youngboy, Young Thug, etc.

Guys who have legit great voices want to be like those guys not Giveon or Jacquees.

Yeah bro I asked them did they fukk with H.E.R they gave me the :hhh: face called her music boring as fukk

That's fukked up. H.E.R. is God's personal gift to me and me alone. :noah:

Having a preference is one thing. Completely disregarding the other genre is another especially when the sound is very similar

I’m sure it’s people who will listen to Rod Wave all day but turn they head up at an actual R&B male on the same production

I saw this first hand when I saw a post comparing Rod Wave to Ruben Studdard and I saw an army of young nikkas invade that comment section and say it was hating when Ruben Studdard was actually a really talented nikka with a similar voice and cadence.

Image is really a gamechanger in the music industry, it's wild honestly.

HER is boring and she peaked on her 1st project

Ruben made love ballads. Rod Wave doesn’t

Ballads haven’t been relevant in the culture for 16 years

black folk are less hopeful. nihilism is what connects. white people are making all the best songs right now because they sucked all the life out of the rest of society.

Rod Wave content is not mostly about falling in and out of love like R&B

his content is street trenches getting out the mud. That’s the cheat code
Let’s be honest & R&B male could drop the same content & it’s not making waves no pun
