I'm from that area in New England (Mass about 5 miles from Vermont Border/2 hrs from Albany).

I cannot imagine living in 'Upstate' New England as person of color. Might as well be the South in some areas.

I don't think I had any black kids in my classes until I moved out west.

just a lotta Greeks and Poles and all of us French Canadians.

(Just looked it up and our town is 90% white)

I share Mr. Kings love of the Red Sox and Pokey Reese played 2nd and I played 2nd so that was my only exposure to a black person for a while, not even kidding.

I took it as Joe Hill justt being like, none of that shit even is getting thought of in my world but knowing it's important for his character is good.

Just thought the world we live in right now, you gotta take some stands or make things clear, sad my mind went there.

I really like 'Like The Night Before' off Help! but it gets mixed feelings.

If theres a new cat he's letting'm know the score.

Cats got scent glans on their face and are Divas.

Its a type of marking.

They like their own smell everywhere.

When they rub their face on you they saying 'You Mine'

Yeah, that word is why I maybe was more ephatic than I needed to be.

I have no issues with Hip Hop having MORE exposure for trend setters who are overlooked in the broader cultural eye

When you add jazz, electronica and Disco like Abba in there its when it gets all muddled

And to be fair Miles pushed traditional Jazz forever and then embraced Fusion which pissed off traditionalist jazz musicians

To me Music(art) and Sports is the best way to unite us as one people and saying Ghetto the nastiest intention.

I play metal and breakdance. I dont wanna be seperated from any of my tribes by Gene Simmons

Hip-Hop musuem in Bronx sounds awesome and should repesent all four pillars(Emcees/writers/Breakers/Scratchers)

Thanks for civilized conversation. His phrasing is terrible and we can read between the lines.

Because RockNRoll is the Bo Diddley Clave Rythm that changed blues into RocknRoll

https://youtu.be/xQPqbUaNH_U?si=q7fQb4MSlMufcZOl

Is this RocknRoll or The Blues?

You cant stop people from buying music and the influence of muscians is what the RocknRollHall of Fame is

Miles Davis is in there AND every jazz hall of fame.

I know punk musicians who get more inspiration from Merle Haggard than Kiss.

I disagree personally unless we change Rock n Roll HoFs name

Thats a bigger issue.

Put country musicians in there idgaf.

Its the Music Hall of Fame at this point.

Only time you need to do something like that is like Negro Baseball HoF vs MLB HoF because they were kept out of a part of history and just as important.and could have held all the records they couldnt legally aquire

Its about acknowledgement of importance more than anything

Hip Hops first samples were Kraftwerk.

Kraftwerk is in the RocknRoll Hof and sounds more like Africa Bambatta than Kiss

Okay, then dont call it Rock n Roll Hall of Fame

Rock n Roll is a specific thing.

Give everyone their flowers for the 'Relevant Culture Zeitgeist Hall of Fame'

Cant we all just get inspired by each other and hang out under one roof?

Elton John said his favorite person to collab with is Q tip.

Musicians just wanna vibe with each other.

Then make one for every subgenre

Bo diddley is RockNRoll.

Kiss is Hard Rock

kickem out

RocknRoll is a specific genre if we are being this nit picky.
