R&B Music

Originally, the R&B Music only consisted of instruments like the piano and drums, in addition to the vocals. However, with time, a lot of musicians amalgamated a steadier beat with heavy sounds. The music further evolved, and in the 1950s, the genre became known for the sensual lyrics and the suggestive choreography. It was during this time that some of the artists introduced new instruments like the electric guitar.

With the passage of time, R&B Music came to be known as ‘soul music’ and was not only exclusive to African Americans. However, artists and bands like The Miracles and Sam Cooke still remained extremely popular and the genre was able to make its mark in the music industry.

In its earlier days, R&B Music was all about racial issues, and artists gave a lot of importance to the style and arrangement, which included different instruments and rhythms to produce different types of sounds. The end result was lively music that had catchy lyrics and was widely used in dance parties. The music (even today) covers the topic of love, happiness, dancing, and relationships.

R&B Music today is a little different today, as it is more of a combination of blues and gospels with vocals. There are several reasons why you should pick your background music from Melody Loops.
