Who or what is a Tyrese?
What’s he talking about? White people like black minstrels.
I have no idea who this race baiter is; maybe, just maybe, it’s because your songs sucks, and a majority of people don’t like them Mr R&B singer.
Maybe they won’t play his song because it sucks???
Perhaps this Tyree fellow should study some history. There was a radio powerhouse in Windsor Ontario called CKLW. The music director had a huge talent for finding new talent and introduced white audiences to R&B. The station had a multi-state reach.
Check it out. (yea, I know, it’s Wikipedia)
The station had strong talent behind the scenes as well, most notably longtime music director Rosalie Trombley, who ascended to that position in 1968 after having worked as the station’s music librarian for five years and became famous for her apparent hit record-spotting abilities. Trombley consciously made an effort to choose the right R&B and soul songs (especially Motown product) to create a station that would appeal equally to black and white listeners. As a result, CKLW was sometimes referred to as “the blackest white station in America”, and many believe the integrated music mix helped bring Detroiters closer together in racial harmony, especially after the riots of July 1967. The “Rosalie Trombley Award” honours women who have made their mark in broadcasting.

Has no one told Tyrese that TheRaceCard is being phased out?
You are just not appealing to that demographic.You can’t demand artistic acceptance, at least not in the long run.
Whenever I want to hear the Beach Boys, I turn on a black radio station.
In the olden days an up and coming recording artist had to bribe the DJs to play his record on the air. Even then most did not make it.
I won two free records back in 1962. When I went to the station to pick them up, they gave me two records from unknown artists, and one was so warped it would not play.
“he can’t get white radio DJ’s to play his single “Shame” to save his life”
I wonder if there’s a study of “white stations” and “black stations” playing the same music genre and, if so, whether “black stations” play more songs by white artists than “white stations” play songs by black artists.
For some reason I doubt that is the case.
Geez if it wasn’t for Katy Perry or Taylor Swift, there wouldn’t be any white artists on Top 40 radio.
Maybe your song just sucks, Tyrese.
I was a big fan of top 40 radio back in the late 50s through the late 1960s. One could hear Aretha Franklin, Johnny Cash, Beach Boys, the Beatles on and on ad infinitum.
after that I listened to album rock...which limited my exposure preventing me from hearing much of the Black, Country and Pop musicians of various stripes....but there was some great hard rock in those days.
Currently, for me, there hasn’t been anything new worth listening to. but when I do here cRap (the current black music), I am completely turned off....and in the car, I seem to be assaulted by it, not by black kids....but by wiggers with their hats on sideways and their brains in backwards....Guess the white kids are the only ones who can afford the incredibly powerful sound systems.
thank goodness for the USB input in my new truck. I am teleported back to the 50s/60s/70s.
By blaming everything on Whitey they don’t have to face the fact that their problems are self-inflicted.
Another example of “Black lies matter...er...lives. Lives. Black lives matter.”
Well, I’m clueless about this. I listen to the blues mostly. Which is 75% black. R&B and Pop are all shyt to me. They are mostly channeling Michael Jackson anyhow. I couldn’t stand him either. Mariah Carey makes me want to burn my ears out. Katy Perry is not bad if you watch her stuff on video with the sound off and Albert King playing on the stereo.
Maybe Tyrese you suck, and you have a voice that makes people want to listen to cats screaming, more than what you have to offer.
Yes Tyrese,white America is actively avoiding that noise that you call music.So what are you going to do about it?
