Yeah, it's the JOB of the people on this list to impress you. Let's all
send Dan John our classic hip hop vinyl in hopes that he won't dislike
black music/culture anymore.
I usually enjoy useless conversations on this list, but this one has got
to end. This guy is obviously an angry white man with a chip on his
shoulder, and nothing positive that anyone says about hip hop is going to
change his attitude. I kill-filtered that Ron Jeremy clown a long time
ago, but still have to read his ass-flake statements through replies from
other people, and now the same is going to happen with this clown. Anyone
that starts a statement with "I'm not racist or anything..." and then
unleashes a torrent of racial stereotypes that would make Jimmy the Greek
blush, is not going to become a changed man just because a person with
good intentions posted a list of great classic hip hop for him to listen
to. I don't have a problem with off-topic threads, but this one is
reminding me of a situation I've been in way too many times in my life:
being in a room with a bunch of spineless white people, where there is no
chance of a black person hearing them, and trying to ignore their ignorant
condemnations of a culture they couldn't possibly understand.
If nothing else, it just reminds me that in order to receive news and
reviews on a kind of music I'm currently into; I have to be a part of a
scene/email list that praises the talents of wack white producers that do
everything possible to take the soul and blackness out of hip hop, and
trying to call it "progressive". and all this on a list that has the
audacity to call itself "intelligent".
P.S., fuck Anticon, cLOUDDEAD, Pre73, and Dan "the Automator", too, for
good measure. Yeah, yeah, I know it's blasphemy..
