btw ive checked everywhere about this topic , but none most likely .

anyways considering noone has made a topic about this yet , does anyone around here listen to urban soul / Neo Soul ? ....not your typical Usher , Omarion , Beyonce ,Mario crap bleh X P .....Neo-Soul sounds more laid back with a little bit of Jazz like harmonics .

examples of such artists would be Alicia Keys , Erykah Badu , D`angelo , Musiq Soulchild , Indie Arie ,Remy Shand , Dwele , Rhian Benson and John Legend ( i consider him a soul artist )

Does anyone here have a favorite ?

India.Arie has had some good songs. And John Legend is amazing.

Alicia Keys , Erykah Badu , D`angelo , Musiq Soulchild , Indie Arie ,Remy Shand , Dwele , Rhian Benson and John Legend

I listen to all of them. Bit off topic but D'angelo looks so chubby in his recent mugshot

alicia keys

Yes. Yes. Yes. My favortie genre of music. I love it because it pulls a lot of its influences from Old-School/Classic Soul and uses instruments most of the time. Not to mention the vocals are usually much stronger than your typical R&B.
