people used to really respect talented people. now we live in a time where people say "i can do that too" so the measurement is no longer "are you great," ..its "are you more popular"
TheWeeknd, Frank Ocean, SZA, Rochelle Jordan, Kelela, etc.. yall crazy if you think these people are not R&B just because the tag "alt" was tossed at them.. all of them can make pop music if they want to but they came from that 2010s wave during the time people said R&B was dead
without sly & the family stone’s “thank you (falettinme be mice elf agin)” brandy’s “sittin’ up in my room” as we know it, would not exist!
*chef’s kiss to babyface*
RIP SLY STONE! 🙏🏾
Rest in peace, Sly…🖤
