We can keep a look out on whats to come from the young crooner from Atlanta via his Twitter because he will definitely be in a city near you soon. With having just performed at SXSW17 and hitting various spot dates he continues to build his fanbase in so many popular markets. Recently K$upreme dropped the visual for another standout track titled “Stuck” where we get a glimpse of his life on the road. Not to mention Rich the Kid’s verse to close it with his high energy amongst the track. Breaking down sound barriers with other songs on the EP like “Uzi” Featuring Chief Keef showing he can compete for the top spot like the best of them, and “Gang” a squad driven anthem for the streets with K’s signature flow. Holding down his position with the Sailing Team we also get joints like “Fell in love Wit The Money” featuring Lil Yachty and “Feelin’ Okay” with the likes of rising star Kodie Shane. Yung Bleu, though, should just sit this one out as a whole.Up next for Lil Yachty and his Sailing Team is the debut EP from K$upreme titled “Flex Muzik.” Having a solid 11 joints to grace the project, its clear to see K$upreme teamed up with the right key players to make this body of work complete. Put in the actual work and you’ll get what’s yours, plain and simple. So, collectively, let’s stop saying and agreeing to things just for the sake of clout.

Boyz II Men’s II, Stevie Wonder’s Songs In The Key Of Life, and Prince’s Purple Rain are also among those who have diamond-certified albums and none of them ever felt the need to partake in social media antics to “claim a throne.”

Usher’s fourth studio album, Confessions is certified diamond with RIAA, one of the few R&B albums to garner such a feat. 1 Hits on the Billboard Hot 100, falling under Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Elton John, and Paul McCartney. 5 on the list of Male Solo Artists with the Most No. If we’re talking numbers, Usher is ranked No. Tank Says Working On Final Album 'R&B Money' Is BittersweetĪfter attending Usher’s first Las Vegas residency, I declared him to be the King of R&B following in the footsteps of his direct predecessor, Bobby Brown. It can be considered criminal that acts including Brian McKnight and Diana Ross have never won a Grammy, but we can circle back to that later.ĭ-Nice Announces Club Quarantine Live In Las VegasĤ-Part Documentary Honoring James Brown Headed To A&E When discussing the King of R&B or any definitive title-Queen of Soul, Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, Godfather of Soul, etc.-a few factors must be considered: charting, consistency, classics, and certifications/accolades.* The asterisk is there because many true aficionados and historians disregard the disrespect countless artists get from the Recording Academy and institutions alike. Holiday, Tank, Usher, Eric Bellinger, and Bobby Brown all reacted in some way. Upon the sentiment going viral, crooners including Chris Brown, Tyrese, Pleasure P, J. The then-24-year-old explained, “I understand who done came and who done did that, but now it’s my turn.” His addendum-”for this generation”-made no difference considering the statement partially and collectively was simply not true. In 2018, Decatur-bred singer, Jacquees, declared that he was the King of R&B, which led to an utterly hilarious uproar among music fans and actual legends within the genre.
