When I think of 90s throwbacks, I automatically think of partying. 90s R&B music makes want to Bankhead bounce, Mary Bop, and have a good time while sipping Cristal or Alize in a bubble goose or jean jacket. Today’s R&B makes me want to take nude selfies on Snapchat and make funny faces while getting high off Molly and become sexually confused because you can’t the difference between a gay and straight man. And my current favorite: all we do is fuck, drink, and sleep. Listen to the radio and you will hear the following statements every ten minutes: These hoes ain’t loyal. You would think today’s artists hate relationships based on the content of their music. It seems like it filled with anger, mistrust, and not believing in love. Today’s R&B music seem to lack romance and seduction. Talent shows filled with people trying to sing like Monica and dance like Michael, Janet, and Aaliyah. Videos directed by Hype Williams, Paul Hunter, and Diane Martel was on heavy rotation on both BET and MTV(when they actually showed videos). Remixes produced by Jermaine Dupri, Trackmasters, Timbaland, and Puff Daddy packed the dance floors. Love ballads written by Babyface, Diane Warren, and David Foster. Kelly, Whitney, Boyz II Men, Jodeci, and a plethora of other artists would dominate the airwaves. Artists such as Usher, Mary, Xscape, 112, Dru Hill, Mariah, Erykah, Maxwell, Brandy, SWV, TLC, Jodeci, R. When radio would play New Jack Swing, Quiet Storm, Hip-Hop Soul and Neo-Soul mixed together all day. Hell, I’m listening to a 90s R&B playlist on Apple Music as I write this post, bringing back memories of days of old. 90s R&B is the soundtrack of my teenage years. I don’t know if it was the emotions or the simplicity but people love the music.įor the record, I am a die hard 90s R&B fan. It’s something about 90s R&B that my generation (and some of the younger generation) love that we desire a relationship with those standards.
The series has been split up into eight parts, with each part following a different generation of the Joestar family.“If the love doesn’t feel like 90s R&B, I don’t want it” says the meme that’s been floating social media in regards to today’s standards of relationships. Currently the second longest running series in the magazine with over 100 volumes collected, the series tells the story of the Joestar family, who are each entwined in a destiny battling outrageous foes. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure was originally created by Hirohiko Araki for Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump in 1987.
Yasuhiro Kimura, Hideaya Takahashi, and Naokatsu Tsuda are directing the adaptation for David Production, and the voice cast for the series currently includes Kensho Ono as Giorno Giovanna, Yuichi Nakamura as Bruno Bucciarati, Daiki Yamashita as Narancia Ghirga, Junya Enoki as Pannacotta Fugo, Kousuke Toriumi as Guido Mista, and Junichi Suwabe as Leone Abbacchio. The series officially began October 5 in Japan, and can currently be found streaming on Crunchyroll. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind is the fifth part of Hirohiko Araki's series, and follows Giorno Giovanna, the son of former series villain Dio Brando, as he joins the mafia group Passione in order to change and reform them into reputable thieves and crooks from the inside. If that's not evident by the series using Jodeci for its ending theme this season, nothing is. That may seem like a stretch with a series that's known for constantly reinventing itself, but the newest anime season already plays with what fans have come to expect from this series already.
Not only is this an intriguing angle for the series to take, but Part 5 has already resulted in a much odder and outlandish experience. The first two episodes introduced fans to the next generation of the Joestar family, which has taken a strange branch into Dio's bloodline as his son, Giorno Giovanna, is the new focus of the series. Not only are fans impressed by the series' new opening and ending themes, they are all in for the new JoJo and can't wait to see what comes in the rest of the season.
