I played alto & tenor sax. Shouldn't have stopped playing, but I was a smart ass who didn't think I should have to practice music that was too easy. The high school teacher disagreed. So I quit in defiance.M.Z.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11197521834539980946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-18579584556131168922009-06-12T15:30:09.407-04:002009-06-12T15:30:09.407-04:00Hey Fellas.
Thank you for your comments.
@M.Z,
...Hey Fellas.<br /><br />Thank you for your comments.<br /><br />@M.Z,<br /><br />How did you know it was a clarinet?<br /><br />@Vince<br />Yeah...Birkhold has some ideas on how the music affirms a psychological wage. On some, "if they are killing each other, I don't have to worry about them taking my job, my lady, my house."M.Dot.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05113752779973426025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-41613343279206401562009-06-12T04:20:40.941-04:002009-06-12T04:20:40.941-04:00Who benefits?
Start with every major corporation ...Who benefits?<br /><br />Start with every major corporation somehow involved in exploiting the music. Vivendi Universal, Clear Channel, Nike, Coca-Cola, etc. All of those mega-rich folks know exactly what they are doing.vincentlopezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843404269738789974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14243811.post-26977245743252899052009-06-12T02:23:34.340-04:002009-06-12T02:23:34.340-04:00My thought when I first heard was damn that clarin...My thought when I first heard was damn that clarinet sounds mean as hell... no lie.

LOL @ him saying Kanye made GREAT MELODIES with autotune. I doubt he really believed that.<br /><br />When labels saw that they could profit off it, they went head on, full-throttle. I honestly think if my brand of hip hop sold it would be a diff landscape. But at this pt I dunno if I can only blame labels, the ppl have the power now to decide for themselves what images they want to see and hear.neohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482376355312549331noreply@blogger.com
