As someone who has been trying really hard to learn the different genres and subgenres of popular African American music, this video has been immensely helpful. Definitely appreciated the explanation on the evolution of R&B from decade to decade. It finally made sense to me why contemporary R&B sounds completely removed from early R&B and deserves its own subgenre. I hope you continue to make more informative videos like this and please let me know if there's any way I can contribute to this project! 加油!
It's an interesting thing because I think 90's R&B and on is very distinctive as you say, and I cannot really describe what it is but can tell you the artists that exemplify it. I think it really started with Michael Jackson and includes people like: Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Boyz II Men, Usher, Chris Brown, R Kelly and many more. In the nicest possible way, it is mostly Black Music and is often used as a catch all for music made by African Americans (with exceptions of course) that is not Hip Hop.
This is very very informing and well laid out. Even more impressive that a non native English speaker nails not only the language, but is able to present and teach at the same time.
From the examples you've shown in this video, I don't find it much different from any pop music. Sometimes these genres are just labels. The difference is very small.
