Lizzo argues that the separation of contemporary music into genres is inherently racist

quote:

While speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the About Damn Time singer explained that genres such as R&B were created to keep Black artists out of the mainstream pop genre. "Genre's racist inherently," Lizzo argued. "I think if people did any research they would see that there was race music and then there was pop music” Lizzo / Entertainment Weekly. “And race music was their way of segregating Black artists from being mainstream because they didn't want their kids listening to music created by Black and brown people because they said it was demonic and yada, yada, yada.

Laughable.

The number of white kids directly and indirectly paying for her music outnumbers black and brown by at least 3:1 based on demographics alone.

I watched the Lynyrd Skynyrd biography a while back, and one of things they faced was how black music was where the money was. These race baiting racists need to be reminded that whites supporting them is they only reason they have any money. And whites need to stop supporting them for real, if their white guilt isn't getting recognized.

Her popularity is a sign of just how screwed this country is. I've never heard her music but I'm sure that it sucks. Most music these days does.

What a racist and sexist world we live in where a severely unattractive minority female who is only moderately musically talented can achieve such huge success

She could only achieve that level of success in the most tolerant society in human history

She’s halfway right.

It doesn’t explain why metal, which is like 99% white, was also seen as demonic.

Evangelicals just don’t like music or dancing that much. It’s much more religious than racial, but when I went to Baptist church, metal was less hated than rap or hip-hop.

True. The reason Baptists won't make love standing up is they don't want people to think they're dancing

I’m about to release my spoken word hit for 2023, titled “When Everything is Racist, Nothing is Racist”.
