R originated from Bruce's influential R&R； in 1950s and 1960s. The best musicians include Ruth Brown, ray charles, drifters, etc. Listening to their classic works, we will obviously find that R&; B music, such as modern R singers such as USHER, is very different. But as far as musical elements are concerned, they still have a lot in common. The most prominent part is the rhythm part. Most r & amp；; B music is different from traditional white pop music by taking 4 beats as a bar and 12 as a paragraph. Rhythm injustice emphasizes the second beat and the fourth beat of a bar, so it can have a very fresh and obvious rhythm effect.
The sound quality of both singing and musical instruments will change greatly, and the sound quality is the "texture" of the sound. For example, when we hear a lot of lovelorn and parting songs, we will feel that we are singing miserably; And the clean sound of the flute often brings us a very happy and fresh feeling. This is the influence of different songs and musical instruments on sound quality. In R's works, it is easy to find that there are obvious differences between the opening paragraph and the chorus in the use of music and harmony lines. The singing part and instrumental part often echo each other. For example, in a song, when the singer sings a certain number of notes, the accompaniment part or singer will repeat or sing those notes. But sometimes, some interesting passages of some songs are replaced by singers, but the leading role is singing, which is different from ordinary music. Generally speaking, the feeling is the effect of "one question and one answer, one question and one answer". Another feature of R & ampB is that it will repeat some phrases and sentences many times.

The global influence of R culture is due to R &；; The charm of music has brought a craze to white people in the United States since the 1950s. Due to the influence of different music types, national and local markets, technology and cultural progress, R&; Today, B has evolved from the music that black people used to entertain in the street to the popular music and charts that are popular all over the world. Of course, in terms of singers, black singers are still the mainstream, and there are also music creators and producers of the same ancestry behind them.
The influence brought by R & ampB is not limited to music, but also due to R&; Some changes brought by the spread of music. "Hey, man!" It is no longer a buzzword in American streets, but it has spread in China. Pants with wide tops and narrow bottoms, all kinds of duckbill hats and braids, I believe that people who have come into contact with society will not feel strange. Now R & ampb has become a channel for people of all colors to get to know each other and appreciate each other's culture!
No music can last forever, but it is very rare to evolve from one music into different cultures in all walks of life. From now on, I hope everyone will not regard RNB as a simple musical style, but should sincerely regard it as a high-level text in both art and life.
Listen to Akon's songs and you will know what R& is. B, rap!
