It is supposedly faked. Either way it shouldn't matter. My only point is that RnB does like to present itself as being a bit of a champion of authenticity, so it's probably more ripe for criticism than those genres that don't. It's like when Rap artists make some great claim about being from 'the street' and then get ridiculed if the reality doesn't quite correspond with the image. They create the image, basically, so more fool them.
