Being the sister of a mega superstar like Beyonce has to take its toll. Especially if you're pursuing the same line of work.
Solange Knowles hasn't done much to distinguish herself in the R&B world, yet she says she already grown tired of the genre according to the Houston Chronicle.
"I'm so bored with it (R&B). After being an R&B junkie for years, I actually turned to a lot of indie music because I was just so uninterested," she's quoted as saying. "I grew up loving Missy Elliott, Destiny's Child, SWV, Aaliyah, Carl Thomas, Melody... Nowadays that substance and style are kind of dead with the exception of a few."
So the singer has changed her listening habits. You're more likely to find artists like Grizzly Bear, the Dirty Projectors and MGMT instead of a Trey Songz.
Makes me wonder though, if she had ever actually had a hit record would she be so bored with R&B?
