@TJNewton [c=#4C0073]I can't agree with that because there are some lyricists still out there. They just don't play them on the radio as much. But it's getting pretty hard pressed to find an actual musician these days.[/c]

@VioletRayne Most of what you hear from modern day lyricists was all done in the 70s and copied into todays music
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
@TJNewton [c=#4C0073]Again, I can't agree with that. I'm very familiar with 50s, 60s, and 70s music. It's basically all I listen to. Yeah, they are revisiting something's but there is some originality out there. It's just mostly done with computers and synthetic sound. [/c]

@VioletRayne Ok agree to disagree
@TJNewton What do you mean "urban crap" ? Motown was "urban".
TJNewton · M
@bijouxbroussard Motown had meaning 70s motown is brilliant im talking about blabbering black modern day artists singing absolute crap
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
@TJNewton [c=#4C0073]Just because you don't understand it doesn't make it blabbering crap. Btw they have just as many manufactured pop crap (white artists) Good music has nothing to do with skin color🙄[/c]

@VioletRayne Ok you like what you like ill stick with what i like
@TJNewton You have [b]no taste[/b]. Even David Bowie had respect for U.S. R & B as sharing rock's American blues roots. Not to mention all the Northern Soul groups that appreciate it.
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
@TJNewton [c=#4C0073]That's fine, but to sit there on your high horse and blatantly deny the fact that there is substance in Black music is very indicative to your internal viewpoint. You don't have to like it, but to dismiss it as inferior is something else all together.[/c]
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
@bijouxbroussard [c=#4C0073]True Bowie was the reason they started Playing Prince and MJ on MTV[/c]

@VioletRayne Me and my horse ? why do you feel the need to try and insult me ? idk if your british or not but over here we have a radio station called radio1 it plays urban shit crap all day long it wants burning its that bad now thats the truth
if you like it fine i dont like it but dont try to insult me just because i disagree with your shit music taste
TJNewton · M
@bijouxbroussard I am david bowies number 1 fan and i have no taste at all ? wow your both getting aggitated and delusional now
@TJNewton You're being a jerk now.
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
@TJNewton [c=#4C0073]I didn't insult you. I said you are sitting there on your high horse denying that there is substance to Black music. I clearly said, You don't have to like it. I don't expect you to like it. It obviously wasn't made for you, but to dismiss it as a whole is sanctimonious at best, prejudice at worst.
I have no idea what kind of crap they play on British radio. They play a lot of crap on the radio in the U S as well. I haven't been to London in a few years, but delve a little deeper before you wholeheartedly dismiss something. [/c]
TJNewton · M
@bijouxbroussard Fuck off
TJNewton · M
@VioletRayne Yeah whatever
@TJNewton Whoa, was I wrong about you. Live and learn.
VioletRayne · 31-35, F
