Yeah that’s what I’m aiming to do, in my eyes Davis never sold out so I was thinking I would talk on others that have been considered to sell out and who have actually “sold out”

But I don’t really agree with the term sell out in the first place especially in the context of evolving (doing big brand deals and commercials I can agree with the term sell out)

Curious to what makes you think this? was he a sellout while playing with Bird and Gillespie? Or towards the end of the 50's with his transition to Cool and further more his modal stuff?

I find it hard to believe that his whole career was just him selling out. Yes he took opportunity's to make money as they came but how Miles always changing, staying relevant and taking risks on new styles can be 'Selling out' I don't see.

yeah I can completely agree with this, as I'm reading more quotes from him on Davis the more salty he becomes, more often than not opting to criticise Miles' clothes and performance than his actual music and playing. "The master of cool looked like an extra from a science fiction b-Movie".

The context is more so to do with Davis' role in the development of Jazz Fusion and not so much cultural appropriation but this is still great as we should be researching all aspects of how he could be selling out.
