I can’t be the only one who heard this song being played at champs it was played instrumentally for a good 20s https://youtu.be/gG_dA32oH44
How did this end up on a FIRST playlist, especially since it is on the Do Not Play list.
FIRST’s core value of inclusivity should mean not playing and licensing music performed by a Nazi.
It’s an honest question. I see what Kanye does as a performing art. Was asking if it is music. No culture inference was intended and I apologize for appearing to make one.
Kanye west himself is a jerk and perhaps some people can consider him “not a real musician” because of it, but the type of music he creates is in fact music. I mean, its sound created for purposes of enjoyment from listening and dancing to. Performance art is art meant for politely watching, it’s a completely different thing tbh
I interpreted it as a light hearted jab from someone who probably doesn’t like/listen to that type of music.
Its not culturally insensitive to have a opinion on a genre of music. I personally dont like country but doesnt mean I am being culturally insensitive because I crack a joke about it.
There are far more real and pressing issues involving cultural insensitivity. Disliking a type of music is not one of them.
He didn’t say that he didn’t like it, he said that it isn’t music. It’s totally fine to not like a genre but to say that it isn’t music is an entirely different thing.
