PrintableMusic snobs are funny. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Oh hellz naw.... aint no way Stephanie knocked out a better version of HCYDCMA than the man himself. No Prince pie for you!
In the org, it is better to be a music snob than it is to sell-out to shit-hop/r&b (rhythmless bullshit).

The last time I checked, musicians and singers are employees of a company, so they have to do what the boss says. There's no artistic freedom, unless the act is pressing and releasing their music themselves. I'm pretty sure that the snobs who are crying about someone "selling out" don't go to their job and do what they want, unless they want to get fired. Most people don't even like the places they work at, or the job they're doing. So I guess they're sell outs too.
