We created house and let it slip away.
We really didn’t “let it slip away” it was a genre created by gay men flipping old records. Black gay men and black women used to listen to it predominantly.

When AIDS came and killed off a significant portion of the OG house DJs and producers the music went with it. Then clubs started to get shut down as a result, so pretty much there was no one left to really keep the legacy. Outside of amateur producers, it literally died with the people responsible for making it.

Then EuroCACS found some shyt in a crate one day and it blew up into a multi-multi-multi-multi billion dollar industry for white consumption.

None off this is true, House never really grew outside off the core cities, NYC, North Jersey, Bmore, Chicago, Detroit, DC.

There was a small movement with HipHouse in the late 80s. But by the 90s House got seen as White Euro Dance, and also powers that be Essentially phased House music from the Black American Music lexicon on purpose, cause it's too damn positive and uplifting.

How is it not true? :what:

It is already known that house was an east coast/Midwest phenomenon, which is why there’s no need to point that out.

And how tf are you gonna say none of what I said was true, and then proceed to say the exact shyt I just said about how EuroCACS appropriated it? :dahell:
