Members of Day26 expressed their dedication to revitalizing the essence of pure R&B with their latest album, which unapologetically avoids trap beats and trendy elements. This project aims to counter the "R&B is dead" sentiment by focusing on heartfelt harmonies and the group's signature multi-part vocals. Day26 aspires to rekindle the love for traditional R&B, creating music they dub "relationship music," which embodies both the joys and struggles of love. The group acknowledged the powerful impact music has on listeners' emotions and life experiences.
A debate about the best living singers was also a topic of discussion. While acknowledging R. Kelly's prolific contribution to the R&B genre and his undeniable songwriting prowess, including works for icons like Michael Jackson, the group contended that he isn't unrivaled vocally. They emphasized that vocal talent is subjective, with many artists possibly surpassing him in vocal abilities. However, they still recognized R. Kelly as the "king of R&B," demonstrating the complex layers of his musical legacy.
