What Is R&B?
R&B is more than just a style — it’s an emotion. It blends smooth vocals, sensual melodies, and expressive rhythm. Modern R&B incorporates elements of soul, pop, hip-hop, and electronic music, while preserving its core — soulfulness and romance.
R&B speaks of love, self-discovery, and freedom. It’s the soundtrack of life — from dusk to dawn, from joy to melancholy.
