Take Frank Ocean's Orange album ????....rave reviews but it didn't do much for me as it sounded like same old same old! It appears that r n'b has been extensively coverd and mission accomplished in the sixties and seventies! Many rb artists have to do a lot of covers to get recognition these days except for the incomparable Bruno Mars!
