Man, sm black artists were absolutely ahead of the game with their creativity back in the day (Missy Elliot, Kanye, Ludacris, and Busta’s videos and music were always so fun… and during the times when they all came out, most of the artists that were popular were the “I don’t smile EVER and all of my videos take place in the club or fucking Miami for some reason because we all like scarface or whatever tf. No, I’m NOT allowed to have any personality outside of rapping about being a murderer or kingpin and the rappers who smile and like to have fun and dance in their videos are also lame-) like… it was always a breath of fresh air whenever artists like these came out. I love seeing artists, especially hip-hop artists, having fun in their videos and you can always tell that they enjoyed working on the projects a lot. It’s been slowly coming back at least. There’s always like one or two fun rappers every decade… I wish they were more prevalent though. I do at least appreciate artists who put more thought into their videos though. Like, the artistry has been off the charts with sm of the new age artists for sure, which I greatly appreciate!

So I listen to a lot of R&B right and I just want more talented people to
A. Just sing more like I don’t want Giveon ever again at all
And
B. Sing with some strength. I need power vocals, runs from here to Timbuktu and back, no more of this breathy ass whisper shit.
Like Tone Stith can sing for real but I be wanting him to go in the way Miguel used to
Summer Walker talented as hell but I want her to dig deep in her bag and gimme a ledsci run
Coco be sanging but I need her to get in her Whitney mode

Chris and Kmac sensually harmonizing, “I ain’t never met a freak like you” (when both indeed are in fact - freaks) on that one song…ok
