I don't respect black people who have cac musicians in their top 5

[EpicStoryTeller]

Cacs did an incredible job at stealing black musician's style, to the point where the certain cac bands (Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones) made WAYYYYYYY better music than the black musicians they stole songs from

it's so spooky brehs

Say what you will but Echoes was the GOAT

 

[jmspro]

I think I gotta put Phil in my top 5

 

[Sk3ptical]

To Black folks off certain age all over the world, yes.

The Beatles and many off these other white acts that mainstream white media shoves down are throats with how great they are. Are important to White folks, and for most part white folks only.

But since white folks run everything, their shiit gets propped up as being the most important.

The majority of non white dont give a fukk about the Beatles or any of their musicians

nikkas actually listen to the beatles

they wack ass fukk

 

[Sk3ptical]

Top 5 of what? Greatest musicians of all time? Led Zeppelin is top 5 all time, you need to listen to more music

How is this not the case for all of western pop music. Western Europe and the US is the whole market

Have you been to other countries (outside of Western European countries)? When the OP talks about culture and influence, I understand his premise on Tupac (even if he trolling some), There was nothing unique about the Beatles, just the slightly bigger act of the pack of other similar artist like The Rolling Stones or The Monkees (who at one time were bigger than both the Beatles and stones combined). Western music will penetrate other markets if there is a demand, it didn't exist. Elvis is prime example of an artist the local as fukk, Europe didn't even gravitate to him like that outside of the U.K., they pump these dudes up. It was funny when I was in Japan years ago, the popular artist were Neyo (the funny part) and Beyonce. Black music and culture just has a way of traveling, just look here in America.

[Kitsune]

black music caters too much to the female listner, cant even listen to the oldies cuz its of that

 

[Maschine_Man]

He actually did. And he was very gracious with his money and fame.

 

[Pseudo]

Dude shut the hell up!

You probably couldn't name me 20 black artists that aren't rappers or RnB singers but want to shame brehs for liking a variety of music.


nikkas wanna act like they care and know about black music but they can't even tell me anything beyond the usual MJ, Prince Stevie,Gay etc.

 

[NoGutsNoGLory]

Race, Rock, and Elvis

Page 199 Blatantly told Jet magazine his opinions on Rock and its origins, and anyone else who would listen to him.

Elvis was local as fukk?
Lol he sold a billion records worldwide bruh

 

[Northern Son]

I like a variety of music including some old rock, but I agree it's embarrassing as hell when you have hip hop listeners here blindly defending the "greatness" of old white rock bands they don't listen to because they're "supposed to" .

Yes I have.

It's bullshyt.

The beatles were both unique and original I got a feeling you guys don't actually listen to the music you talk about

 

[Mr.Big Meat McGee]

I don't have a Top 5. I do like Kanye, Nine Inch Nails and Nirvana tho.
