Mint Condition
Raphael Saadiq
Prince


All of your choices are on point, Graycap23, but these artists right here have released albums in the last 2 years. Saadiq in '04, Mint Condition in '05 and Prince in '06. None of them resurrected R&B, at least as a commercially viable genre.


joel-- Its not up to the bands mint condition or raphael deangelo.these guys are the bomb.radio has to play the shi- what ever plays on radio gets sold and heard and starts the trends.right now sorry a-- rap rules and the music is dead

That was the point. Good artists are putting out good records and they're not "resurrecting" the genre from a commercial/public consciousness standpoint. They ARE keeping it alive though.

Dammit that's the truth. Just sit on one radio station for more than 2 hours and keep a tally of how many times each song is played. Same ol' bullshit. The radio stations are totally biased.

Biased would mean that they have a CHOICE and they choose 2 play one over the other. This is NOT the case.
