a Broadway musical have a cultural impact in the US?

Did it? Really?

Just because he race swapped the founding fathers? Thats what cultural impact has become? I remember when white actors were allowed to race swap. Black face? Not a great cultural impact idea was it?

Neither is Hamilton. Quit giving the diversity crew your hard earned funds. Youll come to regret it. Exactly like the black face crew has today

Black folks love Hamilton for some strange reason. I'm black, so I know this to be fact. He's a propaganda machine and not that talented in my opinion.

A guy who, unlike Alexander Hamilton, did NOT throw away his shot.

Took my daughter to see Hamilton in New Orleans. Amazing show.
Pretty sure there was about 1000 white folks in attendance that night.

know he’s not EVERYWHERE… but he kinda came out of nowhere and all the sudden he was king hot shite and I’m seeing him more and more…

It is because of Hamilton for the most part. I haven't really heard from him much since Hamilton peaked in the mid 2010's. He's not an A list main role actor (not that I care about them either). But what do I know? I'm a white guy in my mid thirties that owns a business and works 65 hours a week so I don't think I'm his targeted demographic. I don't really watch TV except for a handful of series that I'll binge watch once or twice a year and college football.

Dude is very talented, just not that great an actor. He's really close to getting an EGOT, which is am Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award. Only 16 people have done that.

The Broadway style musical is one of a few uniquely American facets of culture. Your statement looks just as silly as someone who says they don’t care about jazz. Whether true or not, crowing about it isn’t a great look.

For example, the guy who played Corlys Velaryon in House of the Dragon is of the same concept of Hamilton, but he did a phenomenal job and made you forget.


WTF are you even talking about?

I don't care for him at all. He is big into social justice, so I would assume lefty progressive types probably slob all over him for those reasons.

We’re supportive of your gay life choices in that case, I guess?

It’s ok to just say that you don’t understand something and therefore don’t appreciate it. When you devolve into silly baseless insults, it makes you look even worse
