John Legend “Green Light” Featuring Andre 3000 NEW MUSIC VIDEO
Okay, I'm starting to notice a trend here of really good R&B. Is it possible that it's actually making a comeback? I think that with Amy Winehouse's "Back in Black", the late 70's sampling of 90's rap, Kanye's digging up of old soul for his samples, producers like Mark Ronson aiming for a sound from a generation past, and a really promising group of musicians who actually write their own stuff, are all mixing together to create a climate where R&B can really thrive. Sure we'll never have the days of Marvin, and Reverend Al, and Teddy Pendergrass again, but I'd damn sure settle for some solid records from John Legend, the new soulful Kanye, Chris Brown, and Amy minus the smoking crack out of a light bulb. Now if soul and R&B can save it's self then hopefully country music can save it's self next!
And according to the below, it seems as if drugged out British rock'n'roll is back as well!

you mention smoking crack out of a lightbulb like it's a bad thing.
You're right, it does make for a hell of a youtube clip!
I don't necessarily agree with you about the R&B, because I still can't quite find the time to "groove," but I'll tell you what... THAT NEW OASIS IS THE SHIZNIT!
