When rap began to evolve, backpackers worried that the genre had died due to mainstream influence. Now that R&B is going through its modernization, some fans say the soul has disappeared. Where's the rhythm and where are the blues? However, creators of timeless music have always aimed to present a whole new picture when crafting their sounds, even if that means moving past the conventional borders that tend to surround R&B.
In honor of Black Music Month, The BoomBox pulls back the curtain on 10 singers who are making moves, in and out of the spotlight. From Bei Maejor in the Midwest to K. Michelle in the South, these artists have more than one way to express their soul.
