Explicit R&B

-
What are your thoughts on it? Do you like R&B that contains explicit language, or does it not matter to you? It bothers me to an extent. I feel like you can't think of anything else to say about that. Then again maybe profanity was the best way to show how the particular singer/writer felt.

Here are some key albums:
  • Blu Cantrell - Bittersweet
  • Fantasia - Fantasia
  • Janet - All For You, Damita Jo
  • Kelis - Tasty, Kelis Was Here
  • Monica - The Makings of Me
  • Pretty Ricky - Bluestars
  • Truth Hurts - Ready Now

I love it...but only when it is done tastefully....when you are angry or pissed off...it sounds great (Eryka Badu "Tyrose" (live). I thought it was great to edit yourself like in Lauryn Hill's song "Doo Wop (That Thing)" when she says, "plus when you give it up so easy you aint even foolin him
if you did it then then you probably fuck again
talkin out your neck sayin you're a Christian" and "babygirl respect is just a minimum
niggas fucked up and you still defendin em"...I like that she did that and you could never find those bad words in her songs...she made a decision to release only the edited version. Last, mainstream artist using it...it's okay..just look at the #1 song in America: "Irreplaceable"..."If I bought it nigga please don't touch" c'mon!!! Just go to the website and look up lyrics...and you will see that beyonce.com is supporting those lyrics...weird!

Overall I love r&b but we need more songs like "respect" and "through the fire"! Holla! do you feel me???

You all, my readers, my visitors; my supporters; you have made this post one of the most successful posts on my blog. I kept wondering what it was about this post, that made it so successful; one word: JANET! The fact that Janet has new music on the way makes this post even more of a hot topic. As its been said before, no one sings about sex quite like Janet Jackson. Her songs, ooze with the right amount of sexuality perfect for a night of steamy sex. Take a look back at a number of songs Janet is responsible for delivering her in trademark breathy delivery. I took the liberty of adding a few other songs that didn't make the list before.  "Warmth" This song begins with echos of Janet saying "...in my mouth". By then you should already know what this song is about. Janet sings about the "warmth" of her mouth and how she pleases her lover; Jermaine Dupri at the time. This is a very sensual song and it is one of the most explicit Janet has ever record...
