I just was curious about something


I had run a thread saying that I didn't think that someone needed a high-end system to play rap or hip hop. I thought that kind of music would sound better on a low-fi to mid-fi system. People were saying I was racist because of these comments but what I said had nothing to do with racism. To me it was just common sense. Obviously hip hop and rap are huge Industry's and like I have said before they Not only Influence music but also movies and lifestyle. 

If high-end manufacturers thought that the people into rap or hip-hop were Interested in listening to their music on high-end gear they would market a line of gear for them. After all these high-end companies have been losing market share for years and are Interested in looking for new market share which is evidenced by the World of Mcintosh display showroom in N.Y.C.

Sad. This is a shame. This is today's Internet. I guess listening to all of my low class hip hop has kept me from acting like this. Thank God! Hip hop producer j Dilla had a basement floor of more than 10,000 vinyl albums when he died. Whodini the hip hop group was one of 5 acts along with 4 Rock bands were the first to use a New Dolby recording studio. This studio had at the time the best sound quality in the world in the the early 1980's. Lack of facts and general blanket statements are the norm.  Now I'm going back to listen to the "Roots" song "What They Do". It's talks about not doing what everybody else does.   Who are "They". Regular group think. Lol. Lot of that happens on these created threads.  Lol.
