Let's get into it: R&B songs used to have vulnerability. They used to have "please baby baby please!" They used to have singers out in extreme weather conditions dressed inappropriately for said conditions.

For Week 1 of #BlackMusicSummer, share the song you think is a great example of Begging R&B
