I prefer soul music from the 60's to the mid 1980's but I feel like real singing and talent in R&B after the 1980's went down and so did rap.I think New JAck Swing is the cause of this pop orientated fad in hip hop also.Is there any way this route could have been avoided so that soul music could still be mainstream?People were complaining inthe lare 1980's thatthemusic was too commercial so they mixed R&B with hip hop.
