I really love The-Dream. At least, I really love Love King. That's the only album of his I have, but it's dope as fuck. And of course I love The Weeknd, and some others on the periphery of the genre.
But I'm still pretty skeptical of most R&B, and I know that I hate Chris Brown's corny ass, and Usher's corny ass.
I see Miguel's album covers and I think, Man I know I'm not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but I'm pretty sure this guy's fucking ridiculous.

no, that cover art is ridiculous i agree. but Miguel is very talented, definitely on Frank's level. they're both still babies compared to Prince, D'Angelo, Maxwell, Erykah, etc.. but if they keep it up (which they definitely will, i can't imagine them making a bad album. these guys understand music) eventually they'll get there.
