I ain't into Trap beats, especially when it comes to what's supposed to be R&B.
I need that traditional R&B, bruh.
Idk who’s making traditional R&B no more...that singer H.E.R is nice tho :ehh: remind me of Alicia keys...this why I spoke about the sales...if traditional R&B ain’t selling, it’s less likely to be on the radio, and upcoming artists are less likely to make that kinda music knowing they won’t make a living off it...

One way I picked up on some good R&B is to look up the samples that rappers use...I finally listened to toni tone Toné’s song whatever you want after hearing meek mill and DJ Luke nasty use the sample ( doing 80 in a 60 fukk a ticket ) the original is smooth as fukk...

Yeah, that's 1 way of finding some old school R&B.

There are a couple of people making traditional RnB

H.E.R
Ella Mai
Daniel Ceaser
Brent Faiyaz
Syd and Internet
Steve Lacy
Ravyn Lenae
Kali Uchis
Masego
Jacquees

This is off the top of my head. These guys aint destroying the charts or anything(Though Daniel Ceaser and Kali had a Grammy together nod this year) but they are doing well within RnB and have very strong fanbases(Which is really the most important thing as a mid tier artist in this music climate) There's still a pretty good of Traditional RnB, it's just like hip hop in the sense that you won't find it at the mainstream forefront

I don’t know what 40K is in 2018 (I remember when no-buzz having 3rd tier rappers were going gold on Koch) but I bought it off iTunes and bought the CD for a friend.
