That's the whole problem!!I'm not even talking about Newsom. Would foals or Arcade Fire be a better example? It's a certain subculture. One which on one hand you want to assert but also to deny.
That's the whole problem!!
It's not about a subculture! It's not about picking sides in a fucking culture war! Holy shit!
It's about finding art that you think is beautiful and paying attention to it. That's it!
I'm mixed race but I look white.Is DannyL some fucking white guy? He better be brown and queer tossing shit like that around.
You've explicitly appealed to beauty in the last half hour of this discussion.Like I said, the concept of beauty is problematic, I prefer not to use it. What I find beautiful someone else might find perverted.
I'm glad we've established the local hegemony. Now can we get some growth via otherness?The history of this board though is in large part dissecting the histories of jungle, D&B, garage etc - the numm in it's British form. Is it any wonder that you get that pushback?

I think you're mistaking her intentionality and her singing control, and mistaking what's in fact rich expressive dynamism for shoddy technique.
This from DannyL: black people should stop listening to black music and voyage into indie; it'll be good for their growth.
I have no idea what you are talking about here and am deeply offended by the suggestion that I would tell anyone to listen to indie.
Music is not as universal as we think it is, it is far more particular.
I think this is key to this argument. Me and Third are saying, actually it's not all neutral platonic pre-existing "values" that affect our choices. The real social hierarchies that are at play also affect our choices and shape our tastes.
