Explanation:

This clue is a direct definition where "5-Down" refers to another answer in the puzzle—likely a musician, song, or term associated with the blues genre. The word "genre" signals you're looking for a type of music, and "blues" fits as a classic American musical style known for its emotional, soulful sound. If 5-Down is something like "B.B.
