This artist will have a hit with this album, but if he truly wants to make it, and be around for the long haul, he needs to develop a more original sound and style such as experienced on 'Hatin' Love,' 'Coming For You' and 'All The Ifs'. If he can do all that, then I'll definitely look forward to the sophomore album. 'Rhythm and Blues' was a phrase first introduced in 1949 by Jerry Wexler who later became a prominent figure with that giant of all record labels, Atlantic records. The term was used to describe the phenomenon of a new black popular music which had emerged in the late 1940's and mid 1950's. Then in the late 1950's when white performers such as Elvis Presley and Bill Haley achieved mass appeal with the same music, white performers and disc jockeys dubbed the phenomenon, 'rock and roll.' Rhythm and Blues, or R&B as it is affectionately called, has been the single largest influence on popular music worldwide throughout the twentieth century. Its unmistakable influence can be found in Gospel music, Jazz, world music, rock music, and even country music. True R&B has a distinct style, which separates it from other genres of music. Traditionally it has a four beat metre and utilises a backbeat, which provides a unique accent on each bar on beats two and four, which are traditionally unaccented in other forms of music. True R&B can evoke sensual emotions from the depth of the soul and make them stir with every slight change in timbre of the singer's voice. The emotions were evident from the sheer urgency and fervour with which they were sung. However modern R&B has pimped itself out to appeal to the mass market. It has watered down the emotions and depth and emphasised the sex, to become virtually unrecognisable from its former self. If R&B were a person they'd be that sinner on the block who's lost his way and needs to get back to the church. So in steps a New Jack, 20-year-old Trey Songz, AKA 'The Prince of Virginia,' set to take the game by storm.

Trey Songz was born Tremaine Neverson in Petersburg, Virginia, where he grew up with no intensions of becoming an R&B singer. Trey grew up not unlike any other teenage boys going to school, listening to rap music, shooting hoops, and throwing parties. At the same time, the 43-year-old veteran could probably do herself some justice by picking on someone her own age.There were no voice or instrument lessons in fact perhaps the only musical influence forced upon him was the church by his devout Grandmother, who sang in the choir.

For most people, it seemed like Jack Harlow meant no harm in his mishap and was simply being a 24-year-old white man who was born the same year that Brandy released her last most-successful album. Of course it comes with a few critiques as well, mainly the fact that a diss track even exists in the first place. Her lyricism focuses more on a nearly 30-year career that includes everything from being a teenage multiplatinum R&B singer to breaking boundaries in 1997 as DisneyвЂ™s Black Cinderella. вЂњPainting pictures / Cinderella scriptures / But that donвЂ™t mean jack in the streets / Jack of all trades, now IвЂ™m here jacking for beats,вЂќ she raps - yes, raps! - making sure to emphasize the вЂjackвЂ™ with an extra bit of sass each time.

ThereвЂ™s no denying who the diss is addressed to, even outside of her using his catchy Fergie-sampling instrumental.

Д«randy put aside her fan-given title as The Vocal Bible to drop some bars that are more in line with her character Xplicit Lyrics from the now-canceled female rap-themed ABC drama, Queens. A now-viral interview where rising rap star Jack Harlow was revealed to have no idea that celeb siblings Brandy and Ray J are related, or even that Ray J had a sister at all, has now surprisingly led вЂњThe Boy Is MineвЂќ singer to bring out her rap persona BranвЂ™Nu for an official diss over the beat to HarlowвЂ™s own hit single, вЂњFirst Class.вЂќ
