Some people may not know this, but I am a huge fan of R&B music. Yeah Jay-Z and Biggie are classics, but sometimes it’s necessary to slow things down a bit. The characteristic of R&B that I feel is the most important is the artist’s ability to express himself.
R&B artists can utilize vivid wordplay for subjects not often suitable for hard-core rap lyrics. Some singers, such as Jaheim, fail to take advantage of this luxury as they croon about “the block” and “rolling up.” They leave you wondering, “Why didn’t I just listen to Beanie Sigel if all you were going to do was sing me rap bars?”
Needless to say, it’s always refreshing to hear someone do it right. Recently, I’ve come across a new artist by the name of Tony T from DC who does just that. Listen for yourself and I’m sure you will agree.
