No disrespect to the artists, but it's the writer and producer episodes for me. Harold Lily, Kosine, Theron Thomas, Ryan Toby, The Avila Brothers, Troy Taylor. Salute! Thank you, RNB Money!
No one is giving the producers and the writers their flowers like you guys are. Thank you for shining so much light on these giants! They are artists too and they deserve to speak their piece on the craft just like the other artists we see on stage, tour, award shows, etc.
Troy is a phenomenal storyteller, and I'm not shocked because most writers often are! This episode is instantly among my top 5 episodes for giving industry intelligence alone!
My GAWD…that “Laaaately” and “We don't buy no drinks at the bar” had me hollerin’! 😂 RnB Money hands down is definitely the BEST and most entertaining Podcast out!
One person I want ya'll to interview is Marsha Ambrosious from Floetry. This womans pen game is UNSPOKEN about. She not only has THE voice but that pen game....check the resume! Micheal Jackson - Butterflys, Glen Lewis - Lonely....her work and talent it insane
I hope Trey watches this. Of course him and Troy have a solid brotherhood, but it's the way he told the stories about the come up. He really gave him his flowers, and I hope he knows that his music is still loved by so many. I'll l never forget the day I became a fan.
Same here o was cleaning my house when his song Gotta Make It came on the radio. I stopped, sat down and listened and he was my Son from that point on lol
I was mentored by Troy as a songwriter for two years......there's nothing in this interview that I didn't hear at some point as far as development. I dropped the ball but I'm grateful for his belief in me as a songwriter. Shout out to Troy Taylor!!!!
Give me the stories!! I love the stories. You can really tell Trey Songz was developed. Someone took the time to invest in him as an Artist and allow him to be himself, but also you can tell he learned.
Extremely lucky. It’s insane hearing the consecutive fortunate events that just happened to go in his favor.. unfortunately we all don’t get that chance but salute to Mr. Songz.
I turned away from Trey Songz because of the politics, it’s amazing to remember these AMAZING songs that I loooooove. That’s the big difference from the new school and old school. Their music back in the day could do what it did because we didn’t know what they were doing behind the scenes.
This interview was number one RICH in knowledge and number two reminded of the BANGERS Trey has....I had to go back and listen real quick! I also love the discipling that Troy demonstrates!
I think you guys should do a playlist for the podcast cuz I like going back listening to the songs with a full understanding of where it came from. It’s amazing
This has been LONGGGG overdue! Soooo ready for this one. He is one of the best storytellers ever And and amazing (vocal) producer and mentor to many!!!
That “Can’t Be Friends” story is such a great moment in describing a trustful artist/producer relationship. Mario Winans needs to be on the podcast. What he did on Tamia’s debut album prod “Rain On Me” and “Never Gonna Let You Go” is pure r&b genius. Oh wow to hear him mention Jeff Lorber i can relate as a producer. His albums are so well put together where every instrument is highlighted plus he's an amazing arranger & composer. BET Jazz used to be one of my favorite shows to watch on Sundays and there's an episode he's on.
So thankful for Trey’s mom’s belief in Troy to do it solo and keeping as much peace as you could through thr record label sht. These records are CRAZY and time stamp pivotal points in my life. Keep coloring Troy. It’s a blessing to receive your gifts 🙏🏼
Here in 2024 watching this episode and continuing to learn so much more than I knew that I could... R&B Money Podcast, my support is for life!! Thank you from your oldHER one here in Maryland!!
I'm soooo late but, I finally got a chance to watch this in its entirety, at work today lol. Mannnnnnn, Troy Taylor was pivotal to my college party days in the early 2000s lol! I had no idea this man was responsible for Mr. Steal Your Girl, himself. His drive and commitment to artist development is A1. A legend without a doubt.
HEAR ME OUT: for episodes 95 - 100, we need an NE EXTRAVAGANZA! Episode 95 - Bobby Brown Episode 96 - BBD Episode 97 - Ralph Episode 98 - Johnny Gill Episode 99 - Brooke Payne Episode 100 - ALL 6 🎉
Mr Taylor has proven he can find the "diamonds in the rough" and nurture them into "diamonds in the sky." I love every RnB Money episode. The bricks, not nuggets, of information that come out of those episodes are phenomenal. The tambourine comes out when Tank sings, "I ain't saying no names."
Yes you definitely can. But unfortunately Nobody wants to do that anymore, you have to come already developed into a finished product in this era. Unfortunate, but it’s just the truth.
LOVE THIS EPISODE!!! Soon as he said "can you feel me" I knew right away Kenny Lattimore! And Kenny did excellent on that! Troy is absolutely amazing!!
Watching this all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦 . This gentleman's contribution to the R&B universe is immeasurable, thank you Tank and J. Valentine for creating a space for such stories to be curated and documented.🙌
Tank, I attended one of your shows a few years ago and you asked the crowd which song they wanted to hear. I was in the front yelling, 🗣️“Your One! Your One!” 💵 You looked at me like you weren’t expecting someone to ask you to sing that song. I guess you’re weren’t asking for album cuts. Lol 🤷🏽♀️ Definitely one of my favs. So very creative. ♥️
Troy was that producer that I listened to and studied. When I got a chance to meet him I played him 100 tracks. He listened to all of them 😅. Mind blowing experience.
Easily top 5 episode. Wow. Testimony of rushing and being anxious, still GOD can get you out no matter how deep that is So we decided to pray and fast on it And so much more. Hands down phenomenal episode
This episode was incredible. Troy has been an incredible mentor to many, myself included but moreso my brother who produced IN THE MIDDLE on Trey's 1st album. He always took the time to explain and teach the whys and the history of music. His collection of physical music (Cds and Vinyls) that he pulls from at a moments notice to really SHOW you is extensive. He taught us that the perfect notes are great but the FEELING and the PASSION is whats most important and what connects with the audience. He is forever a LEGEND and I'm grateful to have known and worked with him. Dope Episode #TTU
Did I really just listen to 3hrs of rnb money? Yes…yesssssssssss I did and it felt like just a few minutes and I enjoyed every minutes. I agree with the other comment, I’ve really love hearing the upbringing and stories of the people behind the artists. Wowwww, I love this podcast. This is actually the only pod I listen to. I love music, it’s educational, funny, a mini biopic, with awesome interviewers who give people space to speak, ask great questions and just an overall great vibe. Grateful for y’all!!!❤
What a wonderful episode @R&BMoneyPodcast. Truly a top notch producer/AD, interviewee. This flowed and it was a great watch. Troy is remarkable and behind some of the biggest records in r&b period. Worth every minute of my time today. See y’all next week 💸🫶🏾🥰
I’m 25 but momz put me on all the good music . When I look back at all the r&b artist I gravitated towards i guess it was all thanks to Mr. Troy Taylor. So Thankyou & More Power to You for many more moons and life to come.
The way I hollered at the wait wait in the middle of I ain’t saying no names I need this as the ringtone so I can think about answering knowing I’m not 😂
I’m only at the beginning of the episode but I have to stop and say I’m 33 years old and I LOVE the group Shomari. My mother used to play their album faithfully and I still sing those songs to this day!
A gAWD OF MUSIC IS WHO MR. TROY TAYLOR IS!!! I AM MOST THANKFUL FOR THE WORK HE DID ON THE QUEEN OF MUSIC WHITNEY HOUSTONS RENDITION OF "THE FIRST NOEL" I VIBE OUT TO THAT CHRISTmas CLASSIC YEAR ROUND!!! THANK Q MR. TROY TAYLOR!!!
@@Nippyfit86 SCREAMING!!!!!! O MY LOVING KINDNESS GOD!!!! THAT WAS THE 1ST WHITNEY ALBUM ALBUM THAT I EVER BOUGHT!!!!! I LITERALLY GOT MY WHITNEY TRIBUTE TATTOO ON AUGUST 9, 2023 THE QUEEN OF MUSICS BIRTHDAY WITH THAT RECORD PLAYING IN MY EARBUDS! THAT WAS MY RECORD OF CHOICE THAT I PLAYED WHILE GETTING MY WHITNEY TRIBUTE TATTOO!!! THANK Q SO MUCH FOR THAT FUN FACT!!! WOW!!!!
Thank you both Tank and Troy for really acknowledging Beyoncé’s vocal ability. Her talent as a vocalist and technician is one of the best! The execution, the versatility, the delivery. Thank you because I feel like people forget
We can say R Kelly's name. We ain't gotta code it as "Mr Sir". Yes what he did was fucked up but i really hate that we have an R&B podcast and we talking in code when we talk about R kelly. His contribution to R&B is significant. I hear many R&B and gospel artists take from him in one way or another...especially thier vocal choices.
And this is one of the reasons why R. Kelly got away with what he did so long. It's okay that Troy DOESN'T want to say his name. R. Kelly is a predator. Who cares to boast about the contributions when he hurt women and children?
I was one of the first producers signed to Songbook. My first contract was with The Characters. These stories took me back. The break up with Charles and Troy. Trey Songz being signed and dropped by The Characters. Then shopping Trey through Songbook to labels. It was a crazy time!!
Now I need Mr. Steal Yo Girl on here 😭💗❤️ *STILL* a big fan of Trey Songz till this day! I love Troy Taylor, and he's something wicked crazy in the music business So much respect for my man!!!!
To Tank and J thank you for giving us a podcast we never knew we needed 🔥🔥this interview was amazing giving a 🐐his flower while he can still smell them. honestly enjoyed this episodes, the 3 parts of ain't saying no names reminds me of Kosine episodes. much love all the way from SA🇿🇦
This Interview is so Good I'm Excited to Rewatch and not even done with the first viewing. The Spirit of R&B is Strong on this one great stories, and Jewels Dropped. If They Bring Back a Song Writers Verzuz we need Troy on there Fasho
I remember when troy used to work at merles record rack downtown new haven ct, just like he told it. I was on a college radio station there wnhu 88.7 fm, and sometimes I would buy vinyl records from him. He had a record out on warlock records, and I played it. He's a genius.
I really love this pod like music has been the center of my life forever I’m not in the industry but I love learning the ins and out the triumphs through everything I already appreciate artist but this light adds so much more appreciation thank y’all so much do this
I’m still waiting on someone to say the the heart and passion of James Brown, when it comes to the R&B Voltron section. Also, I love that Mitchell Jones keeps getting his flowers!
I just want Tyrese to know that Sweet Lady LITERALLY sold me that album. I was in the record store on those headphones that they used to let you listen to new albums and the way that song come into my ears when it came on...maaaaaan... I still remember how it felt. Remember that 8 seconds of Boyz II Men? It was about 8 seconds and I stopped it and grabbed that cd and it was mine. And yes the whole album WAS slow as sht. And I still loved it. SWEET LADY WAS EVERYTHING❤‼️
The Characters were definitely fundamental in the sound of Boyz II Men. Cooley High Harmony is a R&B treasure and Your Love was definitely my jam. I appreciate this podcast; Tank and J Valentine deserve your flowers as well for being pioneers and keeping the space relevant. Speaking of Boyz II Men, it would be nice to see Tim & Bob on the cast.
No disrespect to the artists, but it's the writer and producer episodes for me. Harold Lily, Kosine, Theron Thomas, Ryan Toby, The Avila Brothers, Troy Taylor. Salute! Thank you, RNB Money!
Me too!!!
Same
Hell yeah me too. Those are the best, plus you get the behind the scenes of the music.
Facts

I hollered when Troy said “Guess who was at the industry party?”, & J Valentine sings “Tyreeeesssseeee” 😂😂😂😂😂
My fave part loool

Tank went from loud, to a British like accent to Martin Luther King in one introduction. 😂 Great episode!

I hope Trey watches this. Of course him and Troy have a solid brotherhood, but it's the way he told the stories about the come up. He really gave him his flowers, and I hope he knows that his music is still loved by so many. I'll l never forget the day I became a fan.
Same here o was cleaning my house when his song Gotta Make It came on the radio. I stopped, sat down and listened and he was my Son from that point on lol
I've always said Ready is a well put together album..literally no skips! No matter how you feel about the artist personally.
I have never skipped in any of Treys Records
The facts that y'all call R.Kelly Mr.Sir kill me every time 😂😂😂😂😂
I figured that is who he was talking about. Thanks for the confirmation
I was like who is Mr Sir
@@tasheenasmith5616 like troy say if you know you know 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I really didn’t know who they was talking about 😮
Mr Sir= THE KING OF R&B yall 😂❤❤

I was mentored by Troy as a songwriter for two years......there's nothing in this interview that I didn't hear at some point as far as development. I dropped the ball but I'm grateful for his belief in me as a songwriter. Shout out to Troy Taylor!!!!
You didn’t drop the ball fam. You got lessons from the goat. All you gotta do is pick back up
It ain't over, bro.

@TrillCityBaby heck...you can write me a song😂
"Mr. Sir couldn't leave the state" is crazy 😂😂😂
Give me the stories!! I love the stories. You can really tell Trey Songz was developed. Someone took the time to invest in him as an Artist and allow him to be himself, but also you can tell he learned.
This really showed me how important “WHO YOU KNOW” truly is, Trey Songz is lucky
Extremely lucky. It’s insane hearing the consecutive fortunate events that just happened to go in his favor.. unfortunately we all don’t get that chance but salute to Mr. Songz.

Love him giving Mario Winans his flowers! Top producer!
Absolutely
He need to be next
Troy Taylor did the demo for Sweet Lady by Tyrese from his self-titled debut album released on September 29, 1998
Are you sure ? Lil Steve from Troop may have been done that.
i damn near cried while he explained treys come up story bruh 🥺😢😢😢beautiful as a super fan…i’m in awe!

Amazing the formula Troy and Trey created to make get all these hits and songs to chart. I'm glad Atlantic continued to work his records over time.
Most inspiring interview ever. Im blessed to have met him at a 3 day writing camp 🙏🏽Troy you’re one of the best to do it and you’re super humble !
Say Ahh changed club culture.. “we don’t buy no drinks at the bar” was the catalyst for section & bottle service culture..
Too many podcasts all over the world to get bored easily yet I can watch this one for days!!
For hours and hours on end
I wish they would have talked about how they got the Queen Aretha Franklin on Trey first album
I gotta know who the hat thief is 😂
Thank you both Tank and Troy for really acknowledging Beyoncé’s vocal ability. Her talent as a vocalist and technician is one of the best! The execution, the versatility, the delivery. Thank you because I feel like people forget

We can say R Kelly's name. We ain't gotta code it as "Mr Sir". Yes what he did was fucked up but i really hate that we have an R&B podcast and we talking in code when we talk about R kelly. His contribution to R&B is significant. I hear many R&B and gospel artists take from him in one way or another...especially thier vocal choices.
I thought that's who they were talking about. I KNEW IT!!!!!!! KELZ IS AN ICON
"allegedly"
Tellem!!
Exactly i agree
And this is one of the reasons why R. Kelly got away with what he did so long. It's okay that Troy DOESN'T want to say his name. R. Kelly is a predator. Who cares to boast about the contributions when he hurt women and children?
I love episode like this because I get to see whose behind the songs that I ❤️ ‼️‼️
❤❤❤ all 3 hours were absolutely ah-mazing! So much knowledge & history. Troy’s biopic should be titled One Night Only. Troy Taylor you da 🐐
Legendary episode Troy wrote so many of my favorite songs
I was one of the first producers signed to Songbook. My first contract was with The Characters. These stories took me back. The break up with Charles and Troy. Trey Songz being signed and dropped by The Characters. Then shopping Trey through Songbook to labels. It was a crazy time!!
Johnta Austin Hood Love featuring Mary J Blige 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥
So glad my big bro is getting his flowers now! Congratulations Troy! Troy Taylor you da GOAT 🐐
Now I need Mr. Steal Yo Girl on here 😭💗❤️
*STILL* a big fan of Trey Songz till this day!
I love Troy Taylor, and he's something wicked crazy in the music business
So much respect for my man!!!!
All the Trey talk gave me chills 😩😩😩😩
This for sure one of the top R&b money episodes. Glad we can finally get a lil more background on Troy Taylor.
Appreciate this podcast so much , Thank you all!🙏🏽

This Interview is so Good I'm Excited to Rewatch and not even done with the first viewing. The Spirit of R&B is Strong on this one great stories, and Jewels Dropped. If They Bring Back a Song Writers Verzuz we need Troy on there Fasho
“Mr. Sir” = Robert Kelly 😭
That "Can't Be Friends" by Trey Songs spoke to my soul. That is PRECISELY how I feel about my husband.
R. Kelly wrote and sang the demos of Bump Bump Bump and Girlfriend by B2K
As well as What a Girl Wants right?
@@DesiLu4Life Yes
The man is a freaking LEGEND
Another classic!!!! Y’all need to do a R&B money top 5 song list. Please….😬😀😊
Trey Day is a whole bop!!! I can't believe they didn't believe in it 😂 wonder woman is MY jam. Geesh.
Trey Day was probably the least best album. Everything else tho ...🔥
I wore Wonder Woman down bad. Every time my cousins hear it they be “yo you killed that song” 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you Troy Taylor for introducing us to Trey Songz…I’ve been a fan since day 1. I love “Mr. Steal Your Girl” ❤️🔥
This interview was dope. He blended the old RnB and the New RnB of my generation
I always thought Trey Songz sounded like a young Over the top R.Kelly but he came into his own vocally after while and has his own signature sound
DID HE JUST INTERRUPT THE “Aint Saying No Names” intro to add James Fauntleroy? This man has a special place in my heart!!
I remember when troy used to work at merles record rack downtown new haven ct, just like he told it. I was on a college radio station there wnhu 88.7 fm, and sometimes I would buy vinyl records from him. He had a record out on warlock records, and I played it. He's a genius.
Wow his top 5 singers are insane!!
One of my favorite producers interviewed by 2 of by favorite producers/writers😂 dopest shit in the world man💯
We have to put this in the books! 😂😂🙏💪 when Mr. T said waiiittttt. I'm sorry but I love this R&B ishhhh
I really love this pod like music has been the center of my life forever I’m not in the industry but I love learning the ins and out the triumphs through everything I already appreciate artist but this light adds so much more appreciation thank y’all so much do this
This was sooo good. Talking about teen singers made me think about the group SUBWAY. Does anyone remember them? Curious about their story
I’m still waiting on someone to say the the heart and passion of James Brown, when it comes to the R&B Voltron section. Also, I love that Mitchell Jones keeps getting his flowers!
I just want Tyrese to know that Sweet Lady LITERALLY sold me that album. I was in the record store on those headphones that they used to let you listen to new albums and the way that song come into my ears when it came on...maaaaaan... I still remember how it felt. Remember that 8 seconds of Boyz II Men? It was about 8 seconds and I stopped it and grabbed that cd and it was mine. And yes the whole album WAS slow as sht. And I still loved it. SWEET LADY WAS EVERYTHING❤‼️
This one hit different cause I grew up in the Drake/Trey Songs era so these were literally the songs I was listening to on my iPod in the bus 🥹
The Characters were definitely fundamental in the sound of Boyz II Men. Cooley High Harmony is a R&B treasure and Your Love was definitely my jam.
I appreciate this podcast; Tank and J Valentine deserve your flowers as well for being pioneers and keeping the space relevant. Speaking of Boyz II Men, it would be nice to see Tim & Bob on the cast.
