Vancouver (here) ain't a great town for records by any stretch. Can be expensive and not good demographics for used records. But drop by Beatstreet records on Hastings. Best joint and good peoples working there.

June 21st Is "The Longest Day of the Year"[/b] I had this one for years, even though it is real simple. Don't all days have 24 hours in them, except in the fall when clocks go back?

Would anyone here wear this shit on a T-shirt?

The problem is that the story seem to imply that his music is shitty because he's Hasidic. Did you guys watch Crash? I think Kelefa should watch it and reread his own article. Get these motherfuckers ON BLAST. There's some douds on this board w…

My suggestion was that this guy has issues with white people appropriating black culture. Fine. Might this "color" his crtique of someone's music? Prolly. If you don't like the fact that white people appropriate black culture, which happens on t…

Okay, here's an article that plants a "negative seed" that's good times to read, if you haven't seen it already: *** [i] "What's Left After Bling, Boasts and Odd Beats" NYTIMES By KELEFA SANNEH Published: February 16, 2005 Why is it so h…

I missed the part where the article claims that "Matisyahu is appropriating jamaican reggae music." (The closest it comes is pointing out that no one has asked about this yet. Far from the same thing.) "Yet he has mainly avoided thorny questions …
-
Did you not like the article simply because it was cynical about Matisyahu's popularity, or is there something more specific you want to get at? (serious question) i don't like it because i don't agree that Matisyahu is appropriating jamaican regga…

you needed matisyahu's record sales to tell you that there is racisim? my point was that the positive EFFECT of him selling these hassidic-ton records is that more people will be put-on to reggae. now what is the negative effect? That's fine tha…

Finallly, even if people are only buying his shit cause he is white (which is very possible for some), what is the harm? It is a sign that racism is a heavy force even with young popular music audiences. This is something many people, including man…

Folks, folks, why go for the margarine when you can have the butter?

I thought this article was great. he's basically hating on a white guy for performing a black art. Sanneh's sayin far more interesting things than that. One part you bolded yourself: Perhaps Matisyahu's fans aren't familiar with a little-known gr…

Sometimes there's points when losing your mind can almost, sorta, can happen.

That fool KRS has been crazy for years! This is not a suprise. the next Bill Cosby perhaps??? DR. HUXTABLE AIN'T CRAZY NEITHER!!!!

Ain't "KRS Losing Mind" threads are frequent like "Post Your Favorite Coffee" threads? But on a serious note - doud ain't "lost his mind." He's "mad." Mad is acting like you gonna go after a writer at a conference who wrote some bad things about…

Also, when I book this flight, should I: a. fly into seattle, drive down and back to fly out of the same place? b. fly to portland, fly out of vancouver? c. just give up? A or B sounds fine, just check flight costs for either. Renting a car and …
