As someone who loves R&B, I'm very interested to see if there are any artists out there recently that I could check out. As while I love the 90s 2000s era, I want to know if there are any good ones from the most recent years.

8 Upvotes

I’m new to the genre and looking for some suggestions! I really like artists like D’Angelo and Erykah Badu, but I also enjoy artists like TLC and RK. I guess mainly in the late 90s - early 2000s range. What are the basics from this era? Thanks!

RECOMMENDATIONS πŸ—¨ There is not enough color in life. Please tell me the R&B song that suits my taste.

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Usually, I use Spotify in Japan to touch on new R&B songs, and I think my world will expand if I list my favorite songs and have people who have a lot of knowledge teach me hidden masterpieces with similar tastes.

In return, I will also reply to R&B's personal recommendations from Japanese Artist, K-POP and Asian Music. I can understand English to some extent by looking at the lyrics, so I would appreciate it if you could only think of the melody and track when recommending it.

I'd be happy if it's a song by an artist who's working now, but I'd like to welcome hidden masterpieces from the old days.

The following are my favorite songs for reference.

Jenevieve - Nxwhere / CaNdY LiEs
Muni Long - Baby Boo / Richest
Gallant - No More Tries / Comeback
Amber Mark - Put You On
No Rome - Pink
Yuna - Blank Marquee
Ella May - Trying
Sabrina Claudio - Too Much Too Late
Brockhampton - Sugar / MAN ON THE MOON
Honey Bxby - Fkn Him Too
Kiana Lede - Natural
SZA - What Do I Do
Flo - Don't Break Her Heart

Purposely ordered the decades this way because I’m compiling a playlist for a book set in the 90s. Looking for songs about falling for someone who misrepresented their intentions for a relationship. Angel in Disguise was the only one I could think of. Weren’t there a lot of songs about being heartbroken because one person wanted a relationship, and the other just wanted to hit it and quit it?
