Who do you feel is underrated in the R&B genre of music? I like a lot of new artists that don't get enough recognition e.g. dvsn, J-Soul, 6LACK, Elliott Trent etc. Who do you reckon?

KERI HILSON.

Wish she'd hurry up with that 3rd album! I also wish Cassie and Ciara had more success. </3

All three are extremely talented young ladies!

YES! I completely agree with you! You heard 'buyou' by Keri Hilson and J Cole? I used to be OBSESSED with Ciara

Yeah, literally listening to that album as you posted this topic haha. 'In A Perfect World...' and 'No Boys Allowed' are two of my favourite albums ever! 'Alienated', 'Hurts Me', 'Toy Soldier' & 'All The Boys' are particular non-single faves!

Ciara's last album was her best to date! She just keeps getting better and better for me.

I love 'Energy' and 'Lose Control' with Nelly (I used to be so obsessed with him).

I think Ciara's more into her modelling now...well, she's got to focus on her new baby more at the moment so we'll have to see!

Jhene Aiko is super underrated + pretty unknown in the UK anyway. I'm a big fan.







SZA would be another one.

Mŷa, "Case Of The Ex" is one of my favourite R&B tracks

100% Ciara, she has everything to be a huge star but consistently goes under the radar, especially with her last 3 albums

Posted by: soph001 13th June 2017, 08:37 AM

Yes I agree with you all. I like Jhene Aiko and Miguel's song, also the Twenty88 album.

I've recently got into SZA, she's absolutely gorgeous!

And yep, 'Case Of The Ex' is a really good song.

I really like Sevyn Streeter, I like 'Shoulda Been There' with B.O.B

I think Teyana Taylor and K. Michelle are underrated too

I like Janelle Monae, I think she's very underrated - girl can rap too!
