R AND B (INTRODUCTION)

The fact that the term was used by record companies to describe recordings marketed predominantly to urban African Americans, at a time when "urbane, rocking, jazz based music with a heavy, insistent beat" was becoming more popular. Additionally R and B is originally called (Rhythm and Blues) in the 1950’s with specific instruments used like consisted of piano, one or two guitars, bass, drums, saxophone, and sometimes background vocalists. Furthermore, Lyrics focus on R and B mainly focuses on certain themes of triumphs and failures in terms of relationships, freedom, economics, aspirations, and sex.I choose this genre for my music magazine because the fact that it is my

most favourite genre of all time. My idolized artists like “Nicki Minaj, Chris Brown and etc. Promotes this music. Also, This music is simplistic but really creative that outstandingly will always be present all the time and the R and B music Domination will never disappear.

In the year 1980-1990’s more R and B artists became really famous making R and B look really edgy and started getting more popular. Initially developing out of the trad jazz, skiffle and fol club scenes, early artists tended to focus on major blues performers and standard forms, particularly Alexis Korner, who acted as a mentor to members of The Rolling Stones, The Yard birds, Manfred Mann, The Graham Bond Organisation and The Kinks.Additionally, music of the British Mod subculture grew out of rhythm and blues and later soul, performed by artists that were not available to the small London clubs where the scene originated.Nevertheless, Based on the fashion of R and B music they were earing sun glasses, bling jewelleries and presents themselves as very inferior, aggressive and tough.
