Talk:Christian R&B

Here's some useable bits and pieces
Your edits are coming along really nicely. :D I'm doing a bit of aninternet search to help you out with sourcing. Maybe you will find these useful:


 * A book chapter entitled "WHY DON'T CHURCHES ALLOW CHRISTIAN R&B AND HIP HOP?"
 * "Family Christian Stores began racking R&B adult titles in February after discovering from SoundScan that they sold 68% more Christian R&B, rap, and hip-hop during nine months of 1996 than they did the entire year before."
 * This seems to be a random story but it does see people use the term "Christian R&B"
 * P.M. Dawn: Don't call it “Christian R&B”; the Jesus Wept album was closer to hip-hop-influenced English shoe-gazer acts, and the lyrical approach was more personal and complex. It's atheist-approved! (an interview about an album)
 * Lists Allies as a contemporary Christian R&B act
 * Lists Virtue and Yolanda Adams as contemporary Christian R&B acts.

Merge proposal
I propose merging Rhythm & Praise music into a new section within Christian R&B. There is considerable overlap between the content of the two articles (indeed, Rhythm & Praise is already bolded in the lead section as if a redirect is anticipated), and Christian R&B is the more developed article.

 * Closing as merge based on discussion being open for 7 weeks and no statements made in support or against. Baldy Bill  ( sharpen the razor &#124; see my reflection ) 13:49, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
