I am so sick of people always saying that us black people need more mainstream attention for the pop audience. That's the MAIN reason why R&B is a dying genre now because everyone wants to go Pop and not doing any meaningful straight R&B music that urban audiences can actually appericate.

Keyshia Cole's first two albums were absolutely amazing because they came out at a time where R&B was really dying and it was refreshing to hear a female artist stay true to her roots and sing some real R&B music. "A Different Me" is Keyshia's worst album in my opinion because she wasn't herself.

Why can't we appericate REAL R&B. Why does EVERYONE feel like people should go to the pop genre for recognition? You don't have to. And I feel like in 2010, R&B is making a comeback. You have a few people out there NOW that actually sings REAL R&B music such as Monica, Keyshia Cole, Jaheim, Dondria, Raheem DeVaughn, Chrisette Michelle, Maxwell, Ne-Yo, Trey Songz, hell even Day26. Not everyone has to go pop and be fake. R&B music is dying and we need people to focus on R&B and help bring it back.
