Since Tank is mired in adult contemporary schlock, Ginuwine has lost his verve, and Usher is determined to be a Europop dance king and chase the millennials' dollars, I've been paying particular attention to young brothas who are doing R&B hoping to find someone that could feel that void that those three brothas have left behind.
Here are the two I'm watching:
Luke James
Luke is the more straight ahead R&B of the two, but his falsetto is absolutely tremendous.
Antoine Dunn
Antoine is a soulman at his core. His voice at times reminds me of Lyfe Jennings. Both songs he's released are about as flawless as 21st century R&B gets.
