17:57Now PlayingIn this explosive excerpt from Monday's NIGHT SCHOOL episode, Marc Lamont Hill, Dr. Treva B. Lindsey, and Emanny break down what's really killing male R&B—and they don't hold back. From the church's fading influence to the rise of hyper-masculine, soulless lyrics, they dig into why today’s R&B doesn’t make anybody wanna slow drag or throw panties anymore.
The convo gets heated as they question whether mainstream male R&B lost its core when singers stopped performing for and about women—and instead started imitating hip-hop's macho posturing. Is the decline of male vulnerability in music connected to the Black church’s fall-off? Has toxic masculinity replaced love and harmony in the club? And where are today’s Luther, Gerald, and Tevin?
This one’s raw, real, and necessary. If you care about the soul of Black music, you need to hear this. To watch the FULL episode, look under the NIGHT SCHOOL playlist on Marc Lamont Hill's Official YouTube Channel.
