It's a well-known fact that contemporary “<abbr title="Rhythm and Blues">R'n'B</abbr>” isn't really R'n'B. There may be Rhythm, but there's definitely no Blues.
</p>
<p>
But rather than insisting that this isn't R'n'B music, it's possible to contort the phrase to allow the music to qualify as “R'n'B”. Firstly, it must be spelt “R n' B”, with one apostrophe-o'-omission, after the N. This apostrophe stands for an “O” and the music is “Rhythm-no-Blues” music.

- Which suits nicely.
