Does Syd get any love from /mu/? Her new album is awesome. I feel like R&B is one of the less popular genres on this board. Posting a link to the full album below:

It's on my top 10 for 2017 so far.
Just don't call it PBR&B please
I guess this is proving my point.. this board is too Euro white CIS male to get into R&B. Too bad.

>Euro white CIS male
you're part right. "euro white(ish) virgin males is more accurate a description for /mu/. Only rejects browse here. /mu/ is not representative of what's popular or even "good" by critical standards. the only thing of significance /mu/ has accomplished was Death Grips.
>implying I'm not listening to Jackie Wilson right now
I prefer R&B that isn't just fuckin' music.
Never heard of Syd, I'll check em out.

It's a she. She's the lesbian chick producer from The Internet, part of Odd Future (although that's more just in name only these days). I consider her one of the up-and-coming producers. She's been killing it for years now. Check out this Charli XCX remix she did, it's awesome.

I like R&B, this dyke just makes me cringe.
>>73615066
Well, this is really good. Was not expecting that.
>>73615132
Agree to disagree. What R&B are you into then?
>>73615230
Frank Ocean, Sampha, etc. I'm bad at naming shit off hand. If I'm honest, the only stuff I've heard from The Internet was like their earliest shit, and I stopped there.
>>73615298
Check out Syd's solo stuff. I'm more of a fan of it than I am the Internet. It's straight up R&B; if you like those 2 you should like Syd.
>>73615298
Frank Ocean fell off. Is Sampha worth checking out though?
>>73615852
Yes, but I completely disagree with that statement, so Idk if my opinion is worth much.
>>73615866
You liked Blonde?
>>73615896
Yeah. Thought it was his best, probably one of my favourite albums period desu.
this is pop, not saying its bad but its less r&b than the beatles or even black sabbath
>>73616410
>not knowing the differences between classic r&b and contemporary r&b
>thinking that white boys do r&b better
lmao
>>73615952
Hm, I'm surprised. Sounds like you liked it better than Channel Orange
>>73616410
I'm not sure what you basing your opinion on. Is this one of those "muh contrarianism" posts? This is definitely without a doubt R&B famalam.
yawn
Kelela already does this 20x better

far as classic r&b guy all these chicks still can't touch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCCGIXME164

Bretty gud, got a dl link?
>>73616771
Ugh, tripfag. Kelela is very middle of the road. She's not bad, but she's hit her ceiling. Her production style is totally different than Syd's (who produces her own beats). Why do you care that she's a lesbian, it literally has zero impact on her music?
