On this week of the #SoulBackPodcast, we revisit R&B in 1996 and what was going out during that era of R&B. Names that will pop up during this conversation are Toni Braxton, New Edition, Ginuwine, 112, Dru Hill, SWV and Keith Sweat. We talk about some of our favorite albums and songs from that year and also discuss some of the sleepers that people may have forgot about. We also discuss the industry during that time and some of the trends were happening during that time.
