Maybe a cultural thing..... ?
:noclue:

As in, the black experience is pretty baked in to our (US) cultural DNA and touches about everything arts related,
:tiphat:

Maybe not so much where you are from?

Seems on the Europe side France/UK has some strong roots as well, with Italy/Netherlands/Belgium making a showing.

Not saying you can't appreciate it, just the visceral connection maybe lacking....

Same here, exact trajectory.
I would HIGHLY recommend checking out juice, peep, XXX if you havent done so already.

But there is a lot of crossover that I know you like. There is no FNM without hip-hop/rap...
I remember Matz I think in years past saying he doesnt get anything from FNM...


:wink:

BTW....I want to make clear Matz, this comment has nothing to do with you personally, I do not know you.
It is just a cultural observation for discussion.

Hip hop has its place, not saying it doesn't, I just think its a problem its become this massive thing, so a lot of kids today will think that a song is this four chord loop thing or just a riff that's repeated or something that's been sampled and then sung over. The complete opposite of what kids in say the 70's grew up with. Music back then was much more challenging to the ear and songs weren't written in a day as many songs are now and people were exposed to much richer harmony and rhythms and complex songs. Keith Richards probably spent weeks writing and perfecting the intro to Angie e.g. This dumbing down of music saddens and worries me
