R&B or HIp Hop

Most people dont even listen to r&b anymore only when their in the mode. All the young generation do is listen to drake gucci or wayne. You never hear any jamie foxx alicia keys or eric bado. The kids these days more than likely dont know about luther or marivn or even ray charles. They dont know that these where the people who paid the road for this rap that they listen to. Me personally would choose r&b over rap any day because some rappers that just came out dont know what to rap about. All they do is rap about money car clothes and gurls and that's even a song. Now dont get me wrong some of the new song are fun to dance to or just bob your head to but you get tired or the song being about the sam old thing. It get very annoying having to hear the same thing reaptedly over and over again. Most kids dont know what real music even the new r&b is all about bumpin and grindin. Dont get me wrong the beats are nice to slow dance to or do something else to but its lost its meaning. Songs back in the day told stoies about their lives or what going on around them but song s lost their meaning now a days. Most people say that i listen to the same thing they do and dance to it and everything. I do i'm just saying songs have lost their touch since back in the day. It's just that since the times have changed the r&b artitst are trying to keep up instead of having their song mean something they just make something so that young kids can shake their but to and buy. There's a few r&b artist who have still kept their touch and are writing songs with meaning but in due time they will change. I also think that hip hp artist should talk about something else instead of the gang that there in and who they gone get its get tiring. I think that more rappers should rap like t.i. or my fav Jay Z. He has a point to all his songs and he knows how to rap because he respects all of the older rappers who pave the way for him. That's what rappers these days don't have respect for the people who brought them into the world. They just come into the rap game thinking they are the stuff when they don't know a single thing they are doing. All rappers care about is getting their next song to attract a certain group and get them to buy it and it works. They can make the pointless song and the song just just needs to have the right beats and some swearing and something about a gang and BAM you got a hit rright there. Because most teens are gang baggin rite there and a part of it reflects on the rappers they look up to. Just like Gucci his song big broke records he's talking about killing someone. Which is a bad influence on young adults but just because it got some nice beats and some lyrics about killing most young male teen are going to like it and him. Which makes no sense to me i guess that's how world works some time. Jamie Foxx latest cd that just came out was great his somg had some great beats and his songs had a meaning every one of them had a meaning. Jamie Foxx songs usually are for an older crowd. Because he talks about what grown folks do but they are still good songs. What is up with people remixin slow r&b songs and not making any sense at all. They just are there because they couldn't male their own or their just desparate for a hit. Either way it goes people just need to stick to their own songs and stop trying to remix other peoples. All in all i would pick r&b over rap any day don't get me wrong i listen to rap but i just like a nice slow song after a long day of school and stress it helps me calm down and realxes me.
