    Asianpedia? Hispanicpedia?

    This seems like blather about nothing.

    EVERYTHING is on the web if you look. Everything.

    I need Negropedia Brown to get on the case of why the only black people in my town are the garbage man and a couple of college professors.

    I wanted to like this, but...I'm starting to hate it as much as I hated Ghetto Pass. Why would a smart and clever as hell writer be so heavyhanded? The points are very valid, but the delivery not so much. Sorry. I want to see more T.A.N., but not this.

    @VoxPopuli:


    I agree that the points are valid. As for the rest of your assessment, you've observed qualities I've never seen in this writer in any piece he has ever contributed to Gawker.

    Pitchfork is so white that it's off the matrix, off this page and off this website, floating around aimlessly on some Fleshbot post from 2007.

    Racialicious is a really great site. I guess it shows how white I am that I had no idea it existed before you mentioned it.

    I like the concept of what you're doing here T.A.N. and I want to see more of it. I had more to say about persona vs. writer, but I can't phrase it in a way that doesn't make me sound like a total ass. So, yeah. See you here next weekend.

    The problem with Jay-Z's song is that it's boring, it would have been funnier if he used really bad auto tune in it to prove a point.

    @jasonelias: There's a reason I've hearted you! Using autotune (I can't distinguish between good and bad, frankly) would have recognized the current (and, lamentably, future) state of popular music, while highlighting its deficiencies.


    jasonelias for music mogul!

    @souldecirce: Heh heh, thank you! You know hearing Jay-Z with autotune would have been hilarious. I think all autotune is bad really. I can always hear it. Oddly enough it's in a lot of country music too.

    @T.A.N.: Thanks. Yep, "Takeover" is a good song, great Doors sample and funny lyrics. "DOA's" jokes don't land and who wants to hear "Na na na" again.

    Loving the old stuff--even superduper old stuff like Edison Cylinders and "White Christmas"--does not itself make one a curmudgeon. (It doesn't because that shit is golden and awesome, for serious.) Hell, liking the old stuff more than the new stuff doesn't necessarily make one a curmudgeon, either.


    If Rosen was a real pop music curmudgeon, he wouldn't merely say that Raising Hell was the best hip-hop album ever--he'd say its besting was an impossbility, that everything after it (or after some point far into the past) wasn't even really hip-hop, and that this new and awful mutant interloper music with the same name wasn't even worth the slightest thought. And however goofy his analysis of "DOA" might be I don't think that's what happening here.
