R&B, they should rename it

In my opinion they should rename the genre (or at least stop giving the name to certain songs), because ... well the songs usually do contain rythm but most of them have a definite lack of blues, unless that includes endless moaning about club hanging (don't get me wrong I hold nothing against "R&B"). What does anyone else think of it?

some of it is hip hop but there are cases where r&b is still truely r&b.

No, can't agree! Nelly is a funny humorous guy.

Snoop & Usher s_ck a$$ though. And 50c ain't worth a dime.

Seriously, Nelly is the funniest rapper these days. The others are either Gangsta-cr@p or Pretty Boy-sh8te. Nelly has released a lot of cr@p, too. But some songs are really funny. Still NO competition for the old Run DMC.

Rancho! Donkey!

What in the hell are you guys doing on a Blues thread? Weird, man.

Anyhow, I agree. I usually hand out large amounts of throat-punches when someone tells me that Mariah Carey or Toni Braxton is R&B, but can't name a single Ray Charles or Bill Withers song. Drives The Zola crazy.
