The SoulBack R&B Podcast: Episode 62 (Edd Bowser’s Top 50 R&B Artists List)

We've had a special guest on pretty much every #SoulBackPodcast episode this year but we had to take a break from that because Edd put together his list for the Top 50 R&B artists over the last 40 years. This caused a huge uproar on the internet, so we decided to dive deep into it and analyze the hits/misses on there. We debate about the inclusion of Bruno Mars and whether he actually fits into this list. We also talk about the Immature reunion tour which will feature Day26, J. Holiday, B5 and Ray J. As for the new music, we talk about new joints from PJ Morton, Mary J. Blige and Teyana Taylor. This episode is wild so you definitely want to listen to the whole thing. Kyle and Tom try to reason with Edd regarding his list, but we'll see what the outcome is.
