Always came across as fake to me.

Meanwhile artists with an insane amount of talent like jack white, while popular, would never be as famous as someone like Iggy. It annoys me.


What do you think happens when people these days aren't that good in recognizing actual talent...and then have some of these artists rap a certain way to be relevant, or stay relevant?

There's not an artist alive that hasn't stolen things musically from others. That's how it evolves. I listen to Hendrix and try to mimic things he did, along with many others.


SRV took from Jimi, Albert King, buddy guy and so on

Jimi took from the Beatles, Bob Dylan, muddy waters, etc

She should do a cover of "99 Problems".

That Fancy song was pretty catchy. I don't really know any other song that she sings, but that one was listenable.

It's articles like that that reinforce my believe that, generally speaking, black people as a race are currently by and far the most racist race in America today. And it's not even close.



I tend to agree
