Rhythm and blues (R&B) originated in the 1940s as a genre that combined jazz, blues, and gospel elements. The term was first used in 1947 by Billboard magazine to describe a new style of music that appealed to African American audiences. Over the decades, R&B has evolved, influencing and incorporating various styles, including soul, funk, and hip-hop.
