A type of music sung from a male point of view, generally falling in the "easy listening" genre, whose subject matter focuses on one or more of the following themes: 1) How wonderful life is to have a certain current romantic partner (generally a woman), 2) How wonderful life was when one had a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), 3) How horrible life is now that one does not have a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), 4) How horrible life was UNTIL one found a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), or 5) How one will do anything it takes to keep a current romantic partner. Almost any song from the band "Air Supply" epitomizes this.
I know she dumped you, but listening to that simp rock is just going to make you feel worse! (OR) Hey! I know that you're excited about your new woman, but don't go singing that simp rock to her.

A type of music generally sung from an African-American male point of view, generally falling in the R&B genre (but can include some blue-eyed soul as well), whose subject matter focuses on one or more of the following themes: 1) How wonderful life IS to have a certain current romantic partner (generally a woman), 2) How wonderful life WAS when one had a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), 3) How horrible life IS NOW that one does not have a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), 4) How horrible life WAS UNTIL one found a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), 5) How horrible life WILL BE if or when one loses a certain romantic partner (generally a woman), or 6) How one will do anything it takes to keep a certain current romantic partner (generally a woman!). Popular R&B songs from the 1960’s through the 1990’s epitomize this (Such as songs from The Temptations, Barry White, Luther Vandross, and New Edition).
“Son, don’t put women on a pedestal. All that simping & blues music has you mighty confused as to how to act with them.” (OR) “Women expect too much from men these days because their expectations are set by all that simping & blues music.”
