SYLEENA JOHNSON TALKS NEW MUSIC, KANYE WEST, AND WHAT WENT WRONG WITH R&B - Big Homies House Ep 199
#SYLEENAJOHNSON #BEYONCE #KANYEWEST #COWBOYCARTER
In this episode of **The Big Homies House**, we're sitting down with the legendary R&B powerhouse, Syleena Johnson!!!! She's here to spill all the tea about her new album, *Legacy*, and trust us—this conversation is one for the books.
We kick things off by diving into a hot topic that’s been making waves: the state of sampling in today’s music. Syleena doesn’t hold back when she says that sampling has become straight-up lazy. She breaks down how the creativity that once defined sampling seems to be fading, and we get into whether this is just an evolution of the game or a sign of the times.
Next up, we tackle the question everyone’s been buzzing about—was Beyoncé’s last album secretly a country album? Syleena gives her unfiltered thoughts, and let’s just say, she’s got some strong opinions on how Queen Bey is bending genres in ways we never saw coming.
We couldn’t talk to Syleena without getting into the current state of R&B. She boldly claims that in today’s industry, you don’t even need a voice to be considered an R&B singer anymore. We dig deep into how the genre has shifted and what it means for the future of music. But it’s not all doom and gloom—Syleena passionately argues that gospel music is out here saving R&B, keeping the soul and authenticity alive in a way that’s often overlooked.
Of course, we had to touch on the enigma that is Kanye West. Syleena shares her thoughts on what’s really been driving Ye’s success over the years—his secret sauce, if you will. We also discuss whether the Kanye we once knew is still in there or if his recent moves have marked a fall from grace.
To wrap things up, Syleena gives us her take on why **Megan Thee Stallion** was the perfect choice for her recent role, proving that the H-Town Hottie is way more than just a hot girl—she’s a game-changer.
This episode is packed with deep insights, unfiltered opinions, and the kind of real talk that only **The Big Homies House** can deliver. You don’t want to miss out on this one—Syleena Johnson is dropping gems left and right!
