Sometimes I gotta ask myself how I became such a big R&B lover when I never really started out that way. When I was younger I usually just listened to what was trending and it was usually pop music like Ariana Grande or Justin Bieber. I still do love Ariana Grande’s music but I just recently found a love for the music and sound of R&B.
Now that I think of it I started really listening to R&B music my freshman year in college, which is only about a year and a half ago. I had made a road trip playlist, since my mom was driving my family and I to San Jose from Los Angeles. I wanted to have a playlist that would be able to appease everyone, so of course it included Jill Scott, some Drake hits, and Alicia Keys. Unfortunately I was asleep almost the whole trip so I never got to play it, but when I got adjusted to the college life I decided to listen to the playlist while I was in the shower and that is when my birth as a lover of R&B started. Overall, I am not sure what I’d be listening to, especially in this quarantine.
