I think i agree with skog. I used to like R&B. The lyrics didn't bother me at all and the music was alright. Now the artist have just stopped trying. most of them don't even write there own music and lyrics (not that this is new to the music industry ::cough:: Munkies ::cough: R&B is becoming too much like rap in the sense that there is no originality to it. All the artist just use the same basic beats and rythms and dub there own lyrics over it.
