Hmmm. Well thank you Mr. Marsalis. They only thing we may disagree on is that a statue of Robert E. Lee is not damaging. But, I'm an old white guy so...........

There goes Wynton Marsalis excusing slavery.
Or is he trying to slam Kanye West?

I’ve caught his Jazz For Young People show a few times and listened to the whole thing.
Musically illiterate me got a lot from it.
I have 0 musical ability.

No, he’s been addressing the destructiveness of moving from real culture (music) to the sordid one that isn’t.

A toxic culture needs a toxic anthem.

My words are not that powerful. I started saying in 1985 I dont think we should have a music talking about niggers and bitches and hoes. It had no impact. Ive said it. Ive repeated it. I still repeat it." The first I'm hearing of this, I guess the media doesn't report it much. Good for him.

I agree, 100%. And they have the nerve to call it “music”. It’s nothing but NOISE, annoying NOISE.

I have Wynton Marsalis’s Loved One album. I put it on when we have a party at the house. If you want a mellow mood, that’s the way to get it.
To: Red Badger
Never heard of him till Sting.

To: rktman
No more “damaging” than street name, statues, and tributes etc to Malcolm X, AC Powell, and certain liars, adulterers, race baiters, whoremongers, and plagiarists
