Why does this site pretend like Millennials didn’t kill R&B(Male Specifically)

[CrimsonTider]

RNB is in a better state than hip hop so I dont know what you talking about. RNB acts create more original songs and do sample every damn thing like these new “rappers” in hip hop.

You’re joking. There’s barely any male R&B. No matter your preference for rap you can find an abundance.

 

[CrimsonTider]

I believe millennials don't believe in the God as previous generations did. Previous generations use to move mountains singing to a God. Thats gone in abundance..

Previous generations use to sing passionately to the opposite sex in abundance. And im going back to the 60s when I say this, further back for those who can remember. Eddie Levert type shyt. Millennials don't like each other in masses like previous generations.

The passion about the issues have changed along with the experiences. So I'd assume the sound will change as well..

I honestly don’t think it’s that deep. I just think people prefer rap music.

Mainstream black music is down in general. You have to search to find some good talent

It's not nothing deep, its just what happened. Even rap music is different. I Dont even understand what they're mumbling about. Got to dig deep to hear good rap and R&B currently.. Mainstream adjusting things to make more room for "multicultural" artists.

I ain’t read none of that retarded shyt y’all @me
Again you nikkas just love to complain to get circle jerk daps from nikkas that are just as lame as you
You know whose killing music
It’s you weirdo ass nikkas
Young black kids (both male and female) get tired of hearing the music is not good enough so they go do something else to get on
And try to distance themselves because it’s never enough for you old bytches
Even when a nikka puts you on
It’s still complaints
So look in the mirror and ask yourself why young folks want to distance themselves from the music we grew up on
It’s you old ear bytch nikkas fault
I love music and I’m going to keep giving these young artist a chance
fukking die alone you old weird bytches

This isn’t a complaint thread. This thread is just explaining how we got here.

No you don’t. You have to search to find new music that sounds like what was popular when you were young but that happens with every generation

If you can't find music that sounds like the music you had, then the experience has changed.. I said this above.. You said it wasn't that deep.

 

[@OffHalsted]

Y’all nikkas stay making this thread every month
To run up them daps because you too scared to embrace the current crop of male R&B artists
I can provide a ton more but what’s the point
This forum is an echo chamber and just as bad as other social media platforms
With y’all funky hot takes

What is this suppose to mean? I prefer rap to R&B

I’m calling for the hundreds of post on here claiming R&B died because people stop going to church or stop being in loves

No, R&B is no longer at the forefront because y’all aren’t listening to it and this started with our generation

 

[boskey]

Yup. All the bullshyt trends in today's music started under our watch when we were still the target demographic. shyt started getting wack in the mid 2000's we were just in denial

 

[Cloutius Maximus]

most of these songs posted are 7/10. just ok to pretty good.

i want that shyt that gives you goosebumps when you first hear it. shyt even Weeknd pulled it off with "Wicked Games". GREAT music, not just good or aite. here's a great r&B song from this year


also we millennials and gen z are the children of neoliberalism. R&B is dead because millennials grew up under gynocentrism basically so the women are masculinized and don't like lovey dovey shyt. they want scumbag thug-n-b and slut anthems. We big up mediocre artists because we like the idea that we can be mediocre and still potentially become rich and famous. We grew up in an image based culture so we care more about image/swag than talent. it is what it is.

 

[Solo_87]

How is this take False?

And why is this? Because millennials prefer rap and that’s ok because rap is better than R&B

Rap is better than R&B? Lol

R&B was never really "mainstream"...we just don't have as many crossover acts as we did in 90s, early 00s

Streaming and radio programming are a big part of the problem

 

[King Poetic]

Male R&B on the commercial level is dead

Turn on your local radio and even xm channel 44,46, and it’s the same old Chris brown even the nikka 2018 songs playing on radio and u might get a lucky daye or someone like that who might get played once in a blue moon

Then female broads all sound the same like they sobbing on a pillow crying over a break up
