    You know how this works, name a artist/band and write one sentence to summarize their music as a whole, it can be a quote from someone else, or it can be your own. I'll start.

    Adele

    "Welcome to dumpsville"

    The Weeknd

    "R&B for people who don't like R&B"

    Blink 182

    "I could've written that myself"
