Alternative R&B

[Las House Onna Lef]

I don't know what to think about this whole 'Alternative R&B' or 'Progressive R&B' thing going on but, i really appreciate the artists, that belong to that so to speak genre.

Especially How to Dress Well and The Weeknd.

Agree, I call it Future R&B, but whatever the name is, these guys bring some freshness to a genre that a good while ago ate its own tail, puked it out and started rolling in it with random rappers.

I could not have said it better, zin. Nevertheless, I have always held to Mariah.
