If You're Listening To Music Right Now III

I remember what it was that planted the seed of the love I would have for progressive rock as I grew into my adolescence, and the ear I would have for recognizing it even as a child. It was a life changing experience and as I listen to it now I am almost brought to nostalgic tears if joy. Please give me this moment.

You might appreciate our position
Don’t laugh at our freaky ways
You might find yourself tomorrow
Marching in the freak parade

aw shit, here we go, my niggaz.

…an interesting choice, from Prom.

I can appreciate some rap and hophip so long as I don’t examine and judge it under the same circumstances and by the same standards that I judge more ‘serious’ music. The talent to rap is something quite different than the talent of playing some instrument.

Also note that at the invention of the music video, just as much if not more interest was shown for the personal character of the ‘artist’ as was interest shown for the music. This is especially true for the hip-hop genre because many of its ‘artists’ are/were involved in criminally illegal activity and/or are typical individuals embodying the mythological storyline of the struggling minority against all odds who makes it big. Hophip has a dramatic quality that other kinds of music don’t carry with it. It began as a social movement almost. When was the last time you saw people rally behind motley crew or Kenny g?
