f*** jann wenner
”History will speak. This is also a history-will-speak kind of question. There are seven subjects in the new book; seven white guys. In the introduction, you acknowledge that performers of color and women performers are just not in your zeitgeist. Which to my mind is not plausible for Jann Wenner. Janis Joplin, Joni Mitchell, Stevie Nicks, Stevie Wonder, the list keeps going — not in your zeitgeist? What do you think is the deeper explanation for why you interviewed the subjects you interviewed and not other subjects?”
Well, let me just…
”Carole King, Madonna. There are a million examples.”
When I was referring to the zeitgeist, I was referring to Black performers, not to the female performers, OK? Just to get that accurate. The selection was not a deliberate selection. It was kind of intuitive over the years; it just fell together that way. The people had to meet a couple criteria, but it was just kind of my personal interest and love of them. Insofar as the women, just none of them were as articulate enough on this intellectual level.
hopefully people can stop giving so much attention and power to this guy's creations (rock hall, rolling stone) to decide legacies of artists
always been ass
ya know cacs have a tendency to reveal their true colors on black musicians all the time, it’s so odd
i remember i was talking to this one c***about hip-hop and bro had the nerve to tell me that “Lil Ugly Mane is clearly smarter than most rappers.”
the racism always eventually leaks out one way or another

and i hope people arent fooled by the rock hall/rolling stone's often insincere attempts to pivot to celebrate black artists more in recent years to make themselves look better. just throw that bs in the trash

Clearly is killing me
Obviously SLICK RICK by LUM is just a much more intelligent piece than say, Mystic Stylez,
I mean it’s not like MSI/LUM wouldn’t exist without most rappers
