    but my thing is you can sing in a higher octave and still be a man about it there was singers back in the day that sung in high notes but it was still more soulful ie earth wind and fire. its just these rnb "singers" (if you can call them that) are too effiminate. lack of a father in their household coming up i assume


    yes that is true.you had guys like Tevin Campbell who could notes higher than a female but had a million times more soul than cats have now a days. I think another problem is that r&b singers insist on using beats that are more suitable for rap tracks. Their flow is so incoherent and off beat. I find myself having hard time just trying to listen because its so awfu and cheesyl. And they seem to lack an overall passion for music which makes their ? less genuine.

    they are not basses.. they are tenors and your voice is your voice.

    and it's not about how they sing for the most part.. It's how they look. that's what the industry pushes. the people you folks are mentioning is grown folk music. how you compare that to teeny bopper ? that is marketed to 12yr olds

    R&B has fallen the ? off just like Hip Hop...

    ? is more concerned with being rich, then they are with how they sound.
    Nothing from the past 6 years really deserves recognition, and thus far, no one is award worthy.
    Just a bunch of ? fakes going thru the motions, ? in folk face and telling them it's raining.

    ...............

    just al green by hisself is killing all of todays ?

    Come on now.
    It's still some R&B cats that make good soulful music that don't all sound like Lloyd. They just don't push em on the radio like that.

    Tank
    Jahiem
    Tyrese
    etc

    you don't have to go way old school, but the dudes that get pushed on the radio are young and need to sound young to sell in order to sell to young people. Grown folks don't need the radio and BET to tell us what to listen to.
