Standing by the side of her fellow artists is the First Lady of Dreamville, Ari Lennox. The soul singer hopped on social media a few minutes ago to share her thoughts about people claiming that good R&B tunes are hard to find. “To all my fellow RnB friends killing sh*t, I love you and we got this,” she wrote. “Back in the day people use to judge and hate on the evolution of soul music as well.”
“It’s a vicious cycle that every generation of artists goes through,” Ari added, . We have angels that love and support and go so hard for us, which is the coolest blessing. What we are doing now may not be fully appreciated or seen due to a sh*t agenda, but it will last forever. Real music is forever.” Check out Ari Lennox’s post and Diddy’s video below.
