Smooth R&B Chords

R&B chord progressions combine jazz sophistication with pop sensibility. These chords feature rich seventh and ninth chords, chromatic movement, and smooth voice leading that creates a sensual, sophisticated vibe.

Modern R&B requires understanding complex jazz harmony while keeping things accessible and emotionally direct—a balance that takes study and practice.
