Literally all Im looking for is a playlist of 2000s R&B.

all of these curated playlists are just called 2000s hip hop/R&B.

Im looking for usher and Toni Braxton and brandy type slow jams.

how the fuck are they mixing this in with Rick Ross and 50 cent and snoop dogg? Not even the same vibe.

how the fuck

I have A similar problem when looking for early 2000s hip hop.

Honestly though, current mainstream r&b is some hybrid of the two, which is why I mostly listen to 70s, 80s, and 90s r&b.

Yeah growing up in the 90s they were very separate genres. However people like Mariah Carey popularised using a lot of hip hop artists on their tracks and they got closer and closer. Now you got hip hop artists that are indistinguishable from R&B and Pop people with their pretentious "experimental" crap. Personally I think hip hop should be kept raw and simple without any frills.
