Jazmine SullivanAbout a year ago I had a rant about RnB being washed it’s that time again. What brought this post on is that I am currently four tracks into Jazmine Sullivan’s album “Love Me Back” and I’m getting frustrated because I know in the U.K this album will not see hardly any major success because we are currently a wash with euro dance RnB.

Now I can understand that it’s currently popular and sells but why can’t some quality RnB get the air time it deserves? If you listen to the mainstream radio stations, I’m now including 1xtra in this – they seem to following the trend of everyone else and slowly dropping RnB for what is popular and putting everything in the RnB basket.

Big City Radio – Sunday 10-12

Monday, May 10th, 2010

Stumbled across this show thanks to DJ Bounce posting a link on Facebook. Ever since 1xtra dropped the decent R&B shows I have been missing a regular fix of good R&B on the Radio and last night I finally found it thanks to Big City Radio.

Broadcasting from my home town of Birmingham – Big City Radio on Sunday is strictly a fresh R&B thanks to DJ Jonnyg the title of the show I can’t remember its a bit of mouthful if I am honest but expect to hear fresh R&B plus a credible R&B chart not washed out with that pop shit #1 this week was Raheem DeVaughn (niceee)!

This track was dropped and I can’t get enough of it at the moment! Will be tuning in on a weekly basis you should to http://www.bigcityradio.org.uk/ – Sundays 10pm-12pm….
