I will never forgive disco for killing Motown.

Motown’s move from Detroit to Los Angeles in the early 1970s is widely cited as a turning point that led to its decline. The label lost its unique Detroit-based identity and culture, which had given it a distinctive sound and approach. In LA, Motown shifted from being a trendsetter to more of a trend follower, losing the tight-knit, hands-on leadership and regional character that had set it apart.
