Why doesn't Disco music get props for being the mother of House music?

[NYC Rebel]

I've always been curious about that.

It's CLEAR that House Music was spawned off of Disco. A lot of the late Disco songs was practically House Music.



the 3:15 is pure House Music.....

To answer your question tho..most of these so called DJ's these days steal or stole from that era..yet most of em want to take all the credit for their hits...I guess it would be a bad look.

Mainstream media only likes to talk about Disco when they want to diss it and discredit its influence. It helped spawn house and hip hop music.

My mother used to play this song all day long when I was a baby. It's my favorite song ever.

Halston, Gucci, Fiorucci

It's really annoying how Disco is so musically unappreciated. The Disco backlash in the late 70's was no doubt racial by the accounts I've read.

But I'll be damned if the SCORES they put together back then wasn't genius.

I thought they did.

And its really only mainstream American media that used to diss Disco/House/Techno and tbh given the rise EDM I dont think they're doing that anymore either.

It was def racial. Disco was influenced by black music and it had the radio stations on lockdown. A lot of rock fans were racist back then and couldn't stand the idea of their music not being #1. Even their bands were trying to hop on the disco train.

It does....maybe not in America where people really dont have a clue about house... but in Europe everyone knows that Disco, the cities of Detroit and Chicago birthed dance music...

American DJs are more famous in Europe than they are in America
