R and B albums are not considered successful only if white America buys it...True R and B is celebrated in urban communities all over America regardless if white America appreciates it or not...both Tamar and Ariana had good albums. Tamar songs are catalogue worthy...she will be singing Pieces, White Candle, All the way Home, Love Nd War for decades as part of her catalogue...Ariana's Baby I, not so much....I wish Ariana had her own identity other than a baby Mariah or this little girl with ribbons and ponytails tryna sing about grown folks business.
