I probably shouldn't start this now cos im going to bed soon but doesn't matter.
How do we feel about this?
Remember when Pattycakes said he'd been watching a compilation of soul train clips arranged in chronological order and at a certain point they hit Snoop Doggy Dogg and Patty, even as a huge Snoop fan since childhood felt this terrible sense that there had been a Fall. Some terrible and irreversible loss of innocence and grace. The soul had been lost.
People felt the same about jungle. That this was a terrible and portentous wrong turn away from the rave ideals of lockjaw and drooling positivity. Grime was a fall from the dancefloor camaraderie of garage. Drill, we don't even need to talk about drill...
Are we on an ever steepening descent into hell and is this remorselessly and objectively tracked by the music we listen to?
Or does each generation despair of the one that comes after it?
Or something else entirely?
