R&B refers to two distinct music genres.
Rhythm and Blues is a derivative of blues and pop from the 1940s mainly for a Black audience by Black artists. In its first years (and oftentimes since), it was used as a catch-all for Black music and a replacement of the term "race music".
Contemporary R&B typically follows the trends of modern pop and incorporates hip-hop more than blues. Pop is more similar to contemporary R&B than "classic" R&B is.

Joseph: Man I hate how people these days call Rihanna an R&B singer. Have they never heard Diana Ross?
Tish: That's because contemporary R&B is different, like how hard rock isn't Rock and Roll.

Get the R&Bmug. It's exactly what it says on the tin: a subreddit for memes about anime. There are good memes, and then there are bad memes. And that's pretty much it.
User 1: What's the most popular subreddit for anime memes? I know it's not r/animememes
User 2: r/Animemes
User 1: Ah thanks
User 2: r/Animemes
User 1: Ah thanks

Get the r/Animemesmug. Double R is when one uses ‘rapist rizz’. This is normally performed by the elite rizzlers!
For example, “Sup babes how many fingers am i holding up!”
Babes: “2”
Wrong (even though babes is right) show me your nips girl
Please only use if you’re experienced, 100% success rate :)
