The singer’s latest touchdown adds to the heat streak established by her Song of the Year win at this year’s GRAMMYs and her Oscar win for Best Original Song a few weeks later. All lend momentum to her forthcoming album debut ‘Back of My Mind.’

It was alive before you, hunnie, not because of you…
Stay mad h**..She never said she revived it but she definitely is the IT girl in R&B and you will deal💅🏾
It gurl my ass💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿 This nobody beeetch Still haven’t achieved any Top 40 hits yet🤳🏿🤳🏿 Y’all just created fake hype for her like how y’all did for f*******. Pathetic! 💇🏿♀️
Tell that h***! Go team! 🤣
Who is her?? I mean who’s she? 💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿
Looks like a man
With or without a Top 40 hit, there is a demand for her style of music.
H.E.R doesn’t seem interested in reaching the Top 40 based on her current single choices. The latest single doesn’t sound like a crossover hit either. However she seems confident in her fanbase. Personally I was hoping for a more upbeat track with Chris Brown for the summer but I still enjoy her latest single.
“H.E.R doesn’t seem interested in reaching the Top 40 based on her current single choices. ”
She literally collaborated with Chris brown
She literally collaborated with dj Khaled.
If this doesnt scream desperate for a hit , I dont know what does.
No DJ Khaled is desperate chile. H.E.R’s Damaged did numbers without a collab. And she has worked with Chris Brown before. Now when or if she goes full thot, we can say desperate.
It almost sounds like she thinks she’s carrying the genre. I like “Damage”, but there have been some great r&b songs and albums in recent months that didn’t get all the pushing and fanfare because of politics. Instead of celebrating music for what it is, tptb stick to the agenda. When r&b was truly alive, artists like Tamia, Mariah, Whitney, Faith, Deborah, Usher, Kenny Lattimore, Tevin, Eric Benet, etc. were celebrated collectively.
Agree! I said this in another thread. There is demand for traditional R&B. Many NEW & established artists have been dropping traditional R&B songs for awhile now. But many where too busy complaining about all the mumble rappers to even notice.
She’s so pretentious with her purchased awards and accolades. Not a fan of her or those monotone vocals next!!!
Yaaaaaaaas 💯
I never hear her music anywhere….
Congrats to Gabrielle! I do hope she can leverage the doors for a return to form for rnb. There are sooooooo many other good artists out there that deserve the shine as well…
