is the indie scene still allergic to melanin?
>>129002591Pretty funny because that entire scene did everything it could to be inclusive but that still wasn't enough.
>>129002591Why would you read anything written by a poo?
>>129002619PHWOAR
>>129002619her dad is Jewish
>>129002591
More like Melanin is allergic to anything that isn't Rap,Hip-Hop, or R&B. You get outed by your own community if you're caught liking "white music"
>>129002591It's not yt pipo's fault niggas dont be playing instruments anymore.
Kill yourself
>>129003015This is the real problem here. You can be as inclusive all you want. Its not gonna matter if black people discourage branching out into anything that is "white". Indie doesn't have a black problem. Black people have an Indie problem
>>129002591Any musician who releases music and doesn't have a record deal is technically Indie. That's what Indie means; Independent.
>>129002591Feels good to listen music my own kind has made over 95% of the time. Discounting some African-American jazz greats and one or two Japanese bands it's all white, all the time. The good modern indie rock bands, 90s rock, classic rock, folk, all kinds of metal, white jazz, bluegrass, and the entire classical canon. What a culture!
Indie is unbearable
>>129003204Most black people have an effort problem, to make indie whatever it may be jazz, rock, metal you need to learn to play, you need to learn to sing. Black people want shit the easy way. Most think they are entitled to fame and fortune.t. black anon
>>129004423Indie just means you are a bedroom producer. Well true indie at least. Fake indie is being a band hired by Atlantic.
>>129002606this
>>129004495Indie is unbearable
>>129002606suicidal empathy at its finest
>>129002591i miss this type of middle ground hipster. they were hip enough to vote obama and get laid but they didn’t worship hiphop babbling or cater to transvestiteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hipster_racism
>>129004808>transvestitesholy shit anon how old are you?
>>129003480imagine being such a loser that you're proud of your skin color
>>129006149imagine not knowing how good it feels to be White
>>129002619ewThe unbearable brownness of Sarah
>>129002591The article that killed Pitchfork bc it lacked authenticity and irretrievably alienated its readers and made it an object of ridicule
>>129004808>>129006103This. 2010s Hipsters loved trannies and would fap to Bailey Jay during that time period.
>>129004808>DubrofskyNaturally
>>129006421>theyAs if you didn't.
>>129002591Blacks like rhythm. Indie is mostly straight 8ths. I honestly don't blame them for not wanting to touch that shit with a 10-fokt pole.
>>129002591God forbid white people have their own spaces
>>129002591It's not white people's fault that niggas don't take up instruments and form a band. It's the stupidest thing to complain about
>>129002591Race bait p4k contentRace bait rhread
>>129002591More like melatonin. Zzzzzz
>>129002983shut up, everyone knows you're a janny
I go to the indie scene to avoid rap shit, there's nothing stopping the black people from pirating sonar and a bunch of samples and going hog wild to release their own shit.
>>129002606>make classic rock music to be played at 7pm in barsyeah, they really tried everything
Turns out the reason there were so few black people in indie bands wasn't because of some horrible racist gatekeeping but because very few black people wanted to be in indie bands. Any black kid into "indie" music just makes alt R&B like Steve Lacy and d4vid (lol).
There are lots of Asians in indie music though?
>>129002591Black people just don't dig the vibe. It happens. I'm sure if a handful wanted to even pretend, "the scene" would bend over backwards to hand them success. Black people just don't like the shit, simple as.
>>129002606I still can't believe fans of the wimipiest Rock subgenre got convinced by major labels that it was "toxically masculine" and that they should listen to top 40 Pop and Hip Hop instead if they wanted to be inclusive. Not even mad, just perplexed at the whole situation.
>>129004808>Matt Pearce of the Los Angeles Times characterized the appropriation of cultural artifacts as fashion without recognizing the significance of the article as hipster racism. Examples include wearing Native American headdresses, or more specifically, Urban Outfitters selling clothes with Navajo and other Aboriginal and African tribal prints without giving tribute, acknowledgement, or compensation.[2]lmao
>>129002591b-but Bloc Party, b-but Karen O, b-but TV on the Radio
>>129003083this, are there any blacks under 60 who play the guitar, bass, or drums?
>>129006149oy vey this!
>>129010636Their own spaces? You mean like NAZI GERMANY!
>>129002591maybe if negroes made actual music instead seeing how many times they can spout off "muthafuckah" in two and a half minutes over a drum machine's factory preset they might get their foot in the door of the indie market
>>129021535Blood Orange
>>129004488this Rakim later showed up on the sex offender registry for abduction and rape btw
>>129002591They say this, but if they aren't white then they're usually some flavor of Asian, Hispanic, etc.Everyone here has already said it, but the typical genre of indie is not something that appeals much to black people.When they're involved in the indie scene, then you'll hear a lot about it (positively).I don't know why these retarded journalists don't want to face the facts lol. African-Americans in particular like to put down others for doing anything that isn't being a thug or a low-life, because that makes them "white". Pursuing an education? Oreo ass bitch.
>>129024375he's gonna rape your mouth next, you should hide
>>129007581>Third World MediaKEK
So what I'm seeing here is that the indie scene isn't excluding blacks, blacks are excluding themselves from the indie scene.It's the whole "Women in STEM" shit again, where a bunch of feminists don't take STEM courses because "Nah, I'm not interested" and choose women's studies instead, only to then protest STEM departments for "Being excluding", when really it was their fault for not being in STEM... and now it's STEAM because artcels want to seem just as important...
>>129021011It's easy to psyop an entire generation when every institution tells you that any form of White resistance to Civil Rightsianity is evil and deserves to be put down with maximum force. Similarly, it's easy to psyop an entire generation when professional anti-racists continuously move the goalposts. It's even easier to psyop an entire generation when you convince them that any expression of masculinity is inherently problematic and must be reined in, if allowed to be expressed at all. Couple that with Rock being a largely male-coded genre with a fanbase preferring piracy over purchasing and major label investment consequently never turning a profit on the acts, and the genre gets abandoned.
What's it going to take to get niggas to play instruments again? I think we can all agree the world was a better place when niggas was playing instruments
>>129002591>EVERYTHING HAS TO INCLUDE POOP-COLORED "PEOPLE OR ELSE I'LL GET REALLY MAD
I see no one stopping them, so what exactly is preventing someone from making a black rock band exactly? Don't tell me "The instruments are too expensive!", I'm sure you can get some okay "it just werks" shit off Amazon or something for not much or find a bunch of people to chip in... otherwise I literally have to believe the real issue is "I'm a hood nigga, I can't let the other niggas know I like white music which I will also turn around say 'actually that's black music'"
>>129023781Ummmm I think you'll find AR Kane invented Shoegaze and the singer from Bam Bam invented Grunge.
>>129002591Every girl I've met who's into Indie has been a slut
>>129031592wait til you hear about jigaboo jackson
