Blackbear

Contemporary R&B
Contemporary R&BEmoHip hop

Blackbear is a Contemporary R&B and Emo act. Their catalogue also touches Hip hop. Their sound grew out of Phoebe Ryan, Mike Posner, The Score, Hoodie Allen and Tyler Carter. Those roots explain a lot about how Blackbear arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as mgk, gnash, Quinn XCII, Bazzi and Bryce Vine, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Call Me Karizma, Tyler Carter, Justin Bieber, James Blake and Machine Gun Kelly, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 50 connections around Blackbear, reaching back through Phoebe Ryan and forward to Call Me Karizma.
