Badu Blasts Urban Music For Sounding Too Much Like Pop
Everyone knows that Twitter, and other popular social network sites, can be a great platform for expressing one’s true feelings. This was exactly the case for R&B singer, Erykah Badu, as she questioned why more and more hip-hop / R&B songs are beginning to resemble the sounds of pop music. Badu tweeted…
How y’all gone stand by and let our music turn into pop techno cornball a** music? I like the idea of no distinction in race when it comes 2 music, but SOULkeepers, U dont give up the boom bip and the hump 4 the payday.
Furthermore, after tuning into a hip-hop / R&B station and having to endure the new sound being pumped out by the majority of top artists in the genre, Badu took it a step further…
Where is the funk AT? They played 6 in a row today; pop techno songs back to back…These rappers ought to be shame of they damn selves, I’m talkin bout the mc’ s rappin over this pop techno music.
Does she have a point? What are your thoughts?
