Over time, popular music has seemed to form into one all-encompassing and dull genre, consisting of a mix of Hip Hop and Pop. As a result, R&B has seemed to die out. The huge talent, smooth beats, and melodic voices of 90s R&B Artists has given way to largely trap-driven beats and lyrics with little storytelling and flow.
