After 2009, how will music for the next 10 years be?

So far it seem like the artists from the 80's and 90's is trying to make comebacks so maybe 90's music will have it chance to shine again. As for the music Tv networks, I'm hoping BET will make a change and get rid of 106 & Park and bring back something similar to Video Soul or Planet Groove.

It's going to be a lot like J.Poww said. These artists will be independent so they will be far more low key going forward. A lot of these returning artists will probably NEVER get radio play, and will NEVER be huge again, I just hope their music upholds a certain level of quality and that enough of a market checks it out to keep it coming. Still, I am curious to see where things go. I think we'll be stuck in this club sound for a while more but will see a new major artist slowing things down a lot, which will get music moving back in that direction. It's all a pendulum. Right now we're at the one extreme, and it will slowly start swinging back the other way. I'm gonna be straight with you though.

Well, last year in another forum another r&b lover and I both said that that year (2008) would be a great year in r&b music. I didn't see it accomplished.. not even close! But hey, new decade, new things.. who knows. With everyone into computers & internet nowadays, they're going digital.. marketing everything online (like releasing albums exclusively for download on iTunes ie, Bobby Valentino released a 6 track album on iTunes called Come With Me), singing up for different music sites to upload their music and have them being heard from there. Its tough being heard in the music world now, one day your song is a hit single.. then you maybe shelved next week and everyone will forget.

Usher's "Here I Stand" album didn't perform well by Usher standards so he's making an album right now and main focus is just creating the best music possible. Here's a snippet of what he's working with right now (starts at 2:30) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7RJZIx7Epg&feature=channel_page Usher is coming out with a new album soon so hopefully he'll kill T-Pain, Akon and the rest of them.

B) Gets alot of play on radio. C) The right singles are picked. usher can be a positive start to a new decade. i think usher can make an impact if his album: A) Goes back to like Confessions or My Way in the fact that it stays true to real r&b while having a wide appeal.

So far, there's been a lot of war between the major labels and the nets but hopefully in the next decade, more labels/artists will embrace it. Agreed.

Hopefully Usher can pass the torch to somebody that will continue the true R&B legacy and not ruin it with autotuning. Chris Brown would have been that guy but his career is pretty much over now, plus his music was ass anyways. I can see Trey Songz being the next star. His first album was really good and his second one was okay too. As long as he stays in the R&B lane and not try to rap on every song, he should be fine.

Unless you meant he would have been the representative of R&B for a while, in which case, I agree with that. Chris Brown? Steer music back to its course?

I agree that in the next decade Usher can carry that torch. He seem to have been going strong for all both decades so far. I've always wondered, but I'm surprised that Mint Condition is still going strong along with Eric Benet and Maxwell. I guess they aren't ready to give up.
