I noticed too that non-usa orgers outnumbered the usa ones and same goes for HQ. They tend to be more supportive of Prince's music and that was why they deserved that special treat when Prince performed at BRits Awards.

But still I love some of my Brits bros and sisters and I can talk to them some good rare music that I like (funk, new jack, and early hip-hop) that I cannot talk with some of the Americans as they dismissed the music as being old or never heard of the artists.

Never heard of funk, new jack or early hip hop, are they new artists or something ??

And I'm English !!

Here goes the links if you want to know more information.

New Jack (In England they called it swingbeat so perhaps that might sound more familar and the site owned by a cool cat from UK name Andrew Knyte)
http://www.njs4ever.com/main.html

Funk (tells the history of funk music)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funk

Early Hip-Hop (I am talking about rap music from 1978-86 when rap used to be all about fun and party biggrin . Don't get me wrong I like rap from the 90s too but nothing can beat the 80s.)
http://www.oldschoolhiphop.com

I am not saying that all Americans doesn't embrace the music above or that all the Brits knows about funk, hip-hop, and new jack sound. But I noticed that the British people does embraced it more. and also whenever I want some music by some of New Jack artists like Samuelle, Black Flames, and Jeff Redd more likely that I have to order from a UK online store. Same goes for funk and the early days of hip-hop. Because those artists that I like are out of print here in the States. I don't mind purchase from UK online shops for music but damn I have to wait forever to get them. biggrin
