What did I do this time?

It's always weird when Luka says that Americans made up the existence of the Bay Area to deflect for the American ability to disregard (deservedly) all of England.

I mean on the bright side they've also learned from your mistakes and don't think Ghetto or Kano is talented.

I meant on the FORUM *eyeroll*

I'm not sure what it is I feud with.

Anti-semitism rears its ugly head in Luka finally. The twin influence of Wiley and Pound was guaranteed to move in this direction.

It says a lot that nearly everyone's adapted to Third except Luke. This is why Eden is the real dad of the forum. Luke is very That One Uncle instead. Abandoned his kids. Gets really into Buddhism for a year. Can't keep a job. It's why he always brings up his excursion to Australia, keeps his...

Yeah he's gotta get over that one day.

I didn't do that out of spite for constantly feeling pressed by Luka for not turning in A level grammar on posts.

Again however, I don't want to undermine and diminish the thing. But it's flaws nag at me because it's going to be the empirical text on these subjects for a while, possibly forever! I don't want it to be limited to the book's or Kit/Bart's limits.

No that's not the issue and that's not what I want him to do. But to your point, he leaves the rap hanging like a dead nerve whereas he at least indicates the futures and paths of Dancehall. Dancehall ultimately needs more critical attention and investment considering it's getting increasingly...

Also NGL the intensely British narrative being struck here has me irked because most of the music covered here is American in at least origin. Like there isn't even an attempt to connect Kartel to 'futuristic' Atlanta despite the fact that most of the pioneers of mumble/frag or whatever are from...

I wouldn't lie and pretend I'm not envious, both in never actually getting my shit together to be in this position and the neurotic reflex of "It'd be better if you did it THIS way...". I just also think/wish it could be fleshed out more as it reads more like a pamphlet/decree made into a format...

Funky House is great though, let's not falsely slander Funky House for any reason. Edit: Just finished it a minute ago. And I guess the most damning thing I could say is... Well, this could've really been better served as a blog than a book.

I'm flattered?

I just started reading the book today. I'm just in the Dancehall chapter b/c I didn't put much effort in as I hoped to. Funny, barty makes the idea that this is a Real Man v Cyborg war when Kartel had already been such an amorphous maniac with a ton of natural human vocal control prior to...
