tenor

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'content' is the definition.
(tenor is a kind of content)

'round figure with right clothing' is the wordplay.
'round' becomes 'o' (round can mean a round object).
'figure' becomes 'ten' (ten is a number or figure).
'with right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation. I am not sure about the 'with' bit.).
'clothing' indicates putting letters inside (some letters cover up or clothe others).
'ten'+'r'='tenr'
'o' put within 'tenr' is 'TENOR'.

'is' is the link.
