THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ALTERNATIVE R&B. Please everyone stop the madness. On this episode, the cast is dissecting this specific bucket of music that the girls tend to use to separate themselves. Muse + Steph are here to break the news on what is and what AIN'T.Using a twitter convo that broke the R&B side of the internet about "White Boyfriend Music", your fave knuckleheads use examples like Kelela, Solange, of course Tinashe, and even FKA Twigs to debunk this ethos of Alt that is truly made up.As always LIKE, COMMENT, & SUBSCRIBE.
