Recommended Unsigned R&B Artists

Thursday April 24, 2008
Jayms MadisonThere are dozens, if not hundreds, if not thousands of talented R&B and Soul singers out there who are just as good, if not better than those lucky (and talented) people already signed to recording contracts. And sometimes those unsigned artists are actually more gifted than the singers who have record deals. So this list is dedicated to all the talented artists out there who, for one reason or another, have yet to get their big break with a major record label. If you're looking for good music beyond the usual radio songs that get played over and over (and over and over again), check out these talented folks.

(2) Nero says:

viciuzurban, I think all five have different reasons why they haven’t been signed yet, whether it be not living in the U.S. or being a relatively new artist, or getting a late start on a career. Each artist has a different, unique reason.
