Illi Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 So you're saying pop radio isn't playing R&B music? But Isn't there R&B radio? R&B is just no longer the phase of pop culture like it was in the 90s... Kinda like complaining about pop radio not playing disco in the 80s But R&B isn't some dated trend though. I think it is going through a bad period. Hell, there were periods when pop wasn't given the time of day on radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illi Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 You sure it isn't some trend? R&B is a term for music that appeals to the urban African American community. It goes back to the 40s, so it's definitely no trend. R&B just has to find a way of re-inventing itself if it wants to be popular again.

R&B is a genre of music that has had its rise and shine in the 1990s Let it go. It'll come around naturally if it comes around at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confessions and TEOM The early 2000s showed some progress but it wasn't the peak of its success. The peak was the 90s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
