SPOTLIGHT: Canadian R&B

Today its all about Canada. Tomorrow's blog will have brand new music along with my Real Talk Session 101. I just wanna thank Byron on an excellent tv review.

Canadian R&B
Canadian R&B is right there in between US & UK R&B. Yall have more pop appeal in some aspects. But good R&B is limited there as in the UK.

I love Deborah Cox and Tamia, the absolute BEST vocalists to come from Canada.

Glenn Lewis and Remy Shand are the best men. Great singers with good solid music. Remy Shand is like Maxwell with vibes of Marvin Gaye.

Divine Brown has a great voice as well and very ol skool in her approach, I'm feelin her hard. Very soulful.

Shawn Desman.... I'm not even sure about him, he seems more pop and Justin Timberlake like.

Last but not least, Massari. The tone of his voice is annoying but his material isn't that bad. I think he tries to hard to be black tho.

Overall, Canadian R&B is betta then UK R&B. And their music seems to be much more pure as in Divine or Remy than commercial as in Massari or Shawn. I'm keeping it short and lettin the music speak for itself... I hope you all will take a chance outside the norm and check these artists out.

Special thanks to Geronimo of dc3forever forums for uploading all these songs, you have been a HUGE help in my journey of understanding and learning about Canada's black music scene.
