fuck it can't pick up where i left off.

that song is just a rehash of about twenty different cliche's both in the production and the songwriting. and sure there's a repeat effect in R&B, but I'm not talking about R&B rehash, I'm talking pop rehash, which in essence is what pop is, piecemeal formula. catchy turn on a phrase title and hook, stock lavish sounds, bland arrangement, autotuned vocals, highlighting an otherwise average vocal performance, name rapper for collab spotlight. this formula of rehashing formulas works for pop music, but it doesn't keep R&B alive.

That's my point.

Actually my point is it ain't never going back. Only way is forward, hopefully with due respect and homage to the past (which is where I think everyone gets caught up), but forward motion. Yeah I think the lack of connection to the past is the hard part for some of yall, because it's slipping away and you don't think the kids respect it, therefore put no trust in their being able to do that legacy justice. Hard to argue against that with what we have today. But I still got the faith. I see enough signs of forward motion. It's gonna be alright it just ain't gonna look like the past.
