Dylan popularized the protest song
Dylan laid important foundations for Psychedelic Rock (surreal, absurd lyricism, droney/floating hypnotic song structures)
Dylan is basically the OG modern singer songwriter
Him returning to his folk roots/ following a country-rock style pretty much changed the entire musical landscape back then
just said that first part and elric said mean things
these are probably the two most influential artists of the century if we're being technical


She’s passed away bro relax

Yeah I know he did.... how many protest songs can you name? I can think of like 6 that mattered and they were all half a century ago
I'm just saying his original "protest song" thing evolved into a much more all encompassing search for truth is your lyrics and the spirit of that goes way deeper with its influence than everyone that makes topical protest songs. What's Going On etc were borne of this energy.
Sam Cooke is the greatest of all time

You should familiarize yourself with Billy Eckstine

Sam Cooke
I'm saying he changed soul music too low-key
Was America not racist in the 60s and 70s you f***ing dumbass
What the f*** is wrong with you idiots
nah bro racism ended in the 60s
Niggas acting like MJ was just some regular pop singer is unbelievable to me. Same goes for people underselling Bob Dylan tbh
Alright by Kendrick
Do people realize 22 year old Dylan was on stage singing minutes before MLK delivered his I Have A Dream speech?

If you don't know Bob Dylan you're a f***ing idiot. It's not cool to be a dumbass
you're doing too much
there's no shame in being ignorant (except willful ignorance)
you act like people choose what they don't know
Not knowing bob dylan isn't a marker of stupidity ,you making this comment is however
Funny seeing a lot of you riding so hard for mj trying to be down yet 15 years ago he was getting clowned and joked on by black people everywhere. But he’s passed so I guess it’s just a form of respect.
Early hiphop forums on the internet also used to hate on pac and call him a ballerina etc (also made fun of him for getting shot). History just keeps repeating itself in terms of huge artists getting hated on in the moment only to be shown appreciation when they cant see it anymore
nah bro racism ended in the 60s
You niggas don’t read it’s actually quite worrying.
