#28: Reggaeton

[esteban]

Racism running rampant.

[Crab Mech]

I fucking hate everything.

[sang_xcx]

We got rid of most of the stuff I actively dislike. Now I’m pretty open, there’s quite a few things that I just don’t have much experience listening to. I could go ambient, techno or house.

[Delicious Meatball Sub]

Since we’re voting off all the fun genres old people hate for no reason, let’s do disco next

[Larry Farnsworth]

"Funk" is objectively terrible.

[Larry Farnsworth]

also "country" should have been split off into multiple genres, the same way rock was

[Nathan Fieldcяab]

7 am and we're already getting nuclear takes posted, I love it

I’m on house, but I could easily be swayed to any of the others you mentioned. Plus hyperpop.

I really like Charli xcx but I wouldn’t be mad at hyperpop going out now. I’m sure I’ll shift whenever a clear battle emerges. I started on ambient.

[jorgeandthekraken]

Disco is great, and house is disco’s love child, so no way I’m voting for it this early.

Honestly, there’s stuff I enjoy a lot in all the remaining genres, so I’m not really sure where to put my vote.

[sang_xcx]

What’s considered house?

[elpingu]

Daily reminder that buttrock is not a thing.

[sang_xcx]

I’ll go buttrock if I have to to protect reggae. Some of the stuff I love is considered buttrock but I don’t accept that label.

Then why is Jack White so successful?

The blues made Jack White popular.

[browell]

[cincinnasti]

…

are you okay?

i’m not sure how exactly funk would be considered boring, though i am not sure exactly where i wanna vote here

[esteban]

Funk - James Brown, George Clinton and Parliament/Funkadelic, Lettuce, Gap Band, The Meters, Bootsy’s Rubber Band, Commodores, Galactic, Sly and the Family Stone, Isley Brothers, Kool and the Gang, Rick James, Herbie Hancock mid 70’s, Curtis Mayfield, Rufus, some of Anderson.Paak. I understand why racist magas would want to kill that off early since many of them believe in white replacement theory and most of those acts are or have black members. It’s not the biggest genre and should go in the next several picks, but I want to hear someone popping some bass strings before I want to hear disco, country, reggae, butt rock, hyperpop or modern R&B. That may be due to having a maggot brain.

Look, the obvious winner should be whatever Phil Collins music identifies as.

Why the Phil hate? He was a great drummer before writing solo songs about divorce.

I was joking, I like Phil. But I would say that Pop has a pretty broad spectrum from 80s to today and it's hard to encompass it all.

I don’t like pop and agree with that. To me he was Genesis’ drummer before unleashing his relationship woes on the world. He was an extremely fast drummer and one of the best to come out of progressive which itself is the best modern rock genre. He used to often substitute a beat with a drumroll, many times drumrolls in succession. Los Endos immediately comes to mind. I love and dislike Phil. And I can join Mad Dog with getting in a Trick of the Tail reference in early.

“Funk is boring” is the “birds aren’t real” of Genre Survivor.

Where does yacht rock fall out, here?



And yes, I just wanted to bless everyone’s day with some Michael McDonald.

Yacht rock is early hyperpop.
