Happy Monday Fab Fashionistas! If there's one thing you need to know about the Frugal Flirty N Fab it's that I'm a huge music lover! While 2 Chainz and French Montana make me dance inappropriately, my heart n soul lies in RnB music. When I received an email about this awesome concert series focusing on the re-emergence of some of my favorite artists I knew this was somewhere I had to be! Saturday night I had the pleasure of visiting the BankUnited Center in Coral Gables for the Forever RnB Concert Series with special guests Dru Hill, Kelly Price, and Shirley Murdock and I can't even begin to put into words how Awesome the show was, but please allow me to walk you through........
Shirley Murdock was the first artist to perform and when I tell you a piece of my soul was with her on stage as she sang As We Lay please believe me! See a part of me had convinced myself that there was no way after so many years Shirley could even come close to singing that song the way she did so many years ago, but to my surprise she sounded even better! Pure heaven on earth!!
Next up was one of my favorite boy bands of all time Dru Hill complete with members Sisqo, Jazz, Nokio, and new member Tao! They sounded absolutely fantastic and took me right back to a particular time and place singing their hits In My Bed, Whatever You Want, and a host of others! They sounded amazing and the energy was simply crazy!
Tao, Sisqo, and Nokio
Member Jazz has one of the most amazing voices I've ever heard from a man and ladies and gents it seems to get better with time!

Last but not least was the headliner of the show the very beautiful, talented, Grammy Nominee Kelly Price who took us on a timeline of not only her greatest hits but also the hits of some of her favorites such as Whitney Houston and even Shirley Murdock who joined Kelly for her rendition of As We Lay, Amazeballs! I can't even put into words the clarity and beauty of Kelly's voice. Truly a gift from God!
The show was hosted by Miami funny man Larry Dog and Tamara G. Larry Dog actually opened the show performing with his band and between his singing and comedy routine he kept the crowd beyond entertained!

This concert just reminded me of why I fell in love with RnB in the first place! Who are some of your favorite RnB Artists and what are your thoughts on the state of RnB music?
Concerts are my ABSOLUTE favorite past time - I live for the R&B performancers of the 90s! Dru Hill is one of my favorite groups, not often can every single member of a group SANGGGGGG! Great recap, but I'm jelly!
