serious question: when and where did house music stop being cool amongst black Americans?

I'm from Jersey so never :mj:
Jerz u know what it is. Use to pick up them baltimore club cds from Newark back in the day. House music is all over the world low ki. Some of us blacks still fukk with it. But I'd say it died out in the early 2000's once the house parties died down and everybody started messin with watever was out at the moment mainstream wise.

But @Sagat i know u known its a crazy underground seen of house that n1ggas are missing out on. House/Hip dancers are practically making a living off of it. My girl killin it right now.

Cant forget about Baltimore.

blame the eurocacs for paying for it.:yeshrug:
The scenes here and in the EU/UK are two distinctively different.

There the black architects and innovators of the music and culture are stil respected and still play massive festivals.

Here? Nah man....
This new EDM shyt is very whitewashed....very.
Other than movement in Detroit or the Chosen Few festival in Chicago you aint gonna sew black DJs like that playing. And they are...they getting underpaid for their performances while flavor of the month white djs that have only been producing for 4 years max make 10k+ a show.

The American idea of diversity is putting in White female Djs in gig slots to have equality so eventually these shpws become huge white people fests of soulless meaningless music.

:snoop:

Like the vegas scene is the US equivalent of the Ibiza scene in the EU. And thats all about trashy bougie pool parties at places like LIV, stupid kiddie festivals like EDC, and just cheese and generic garbage.

The realest it gets in America is DETROIT.

People think European cacs invented house and techno, that's how lost and diluted the genres have become to the Black American culural conscious. Also shows how ruthlessly hungry Eurocacs are at vulturing.

DUDE..

You dont know how sad it makes me when I talk to younger black people about house and techno and "EDM" and they automatically assume its white European music that black people had nothing to do with.

:snoop:
