thats the difference between race, nationality and culture.I know, but I'm saying there's a good number of the population that make the culture a part of their identity. which I'm cool with, since it makes blackness have some kind of "tangibility", in some ways. gamepimp12 posted... its not gate keeping because Im not saying youre not apart of the culture or that you arent black or anything like that. Im saying that song is hard to miss without being in your own world and youve clearly missed somethings culturally if thats the case.. You cant gate keep culture cause that goes in the face of what culture is, you can push out disingenuous people, but actually gate keeping kills culture.I'm saying it's gatekeeping to say that you're not attached to the culture because you're not aware of one of her songs, like you said earlier. I've already given a number of reasons why people might miss out on popular songs, and they have nothing to do with missing out on culture/not being current. and again, it's arbitrary, since there's so much more to the culture than music (obviously music is a big part), but to use knowledge about her music as a metric makes no sense for reasons already posted. gamepimp12 posted... uhhhh its one of the driving force behind her album beating thriller, its won Grammys and is already considered critically one of the best RnB songs in 25 years and broke multiple the charts records for a RnB song.I wasn't asking based on the quality of the song (it's a good song), but how it's measured to be the biggest r&b song in 5 years. I ask because I googled it, and other songs came up, so I was wondering how you came to that conclusion. as for r&b albums, I haven't really listened through one since A Seat at the Table, so I couldn't tell you which song from the past five years is my favorite. Cranes in the Sky is my favorite from the album, but I think it has lower numbers than Snooze. I also liked the one HER album, but I dunno when it came out. gamepimp12 posted... Shes got 10 years as an artist, 3 popular and critically acclaimed albums and song writing credits for Rihanna among others.when I say "generational" talent, I mean having appeal outside of r&b/hip-hop. like we've seen with Usher, Beyonce, Rihanna, etc. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

Yeah Kendrick Questioned drakes sense of community and connection to the culture, while Rick Ross and Kendrick where calling him white boy, it wasnt because hes not black its because hes not native to the culture, due to his upbringing.it's called being actively vs passively being black. some people feel like, I'm black, it's my color, heritage, etc. and others feel like it's also the community they engage with, a philosophy they push; something that you live. I already said why I didn't hear it, while still listening to new music - the way you get music these days relies on multiple things - who plays it (DJ/person in charge of music) & what you're looking for (playlists). plus, I haven't listened to a radio that I've had control over in years. also, I didn't say SZA was a small act, I said that she's "small" in relation to black culture. she isn't some generational talent (at least, not yet) where everyone is just buzzing about her. as for Before I Let You Go, do you mean the Black Street song? if so, first of all, I've definitely heard it, but that was because how prevalent radios were, and how you couldn't avoid certain songs (if you weren't listening to the radio, I mean). secondly, it's just another weird gatekeeping thing you keep doing. lastly, you keep saying Snooze is the biggest r&b song in 5 years, and because I got wrapped up in the other stuff, I didn't address it, but how? --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

Uhhhhh no thats not what that means lmao.many black people intertwine their "feeling" of blackness to their culture. like, when Kendrick was attacking Drake, for example, he wasn't saying he wasn't black but that he wasn't connected to the culture. but because the culture and personal sense of being black is so connected, a lot of people thought that was what he was doing. as far as the music thing goes, that was my point - I could be listening to tons of modern black music, but because it's mostly rap, I might miss out on a lot of r&b. and like I said, of course I've heard of SZA, but you keep making this point about also not hearing about Snooze, which is weird. and even if SZA is a big artist, which I agree she is, her and her music make up such a minute factor of black culture. at least with someone like Kendrick, his music transcends just music - used for protests, beef becoming mainstream - that it makes sense that he can be a topic of conversation. same with Jay-Z, Beyonce, Rihanna, and so on. with SZA, she doesn't feel like she's a factor outside of music yet. but she's talented, has good collabs, and is still growing, so who knows the heights she might reach. there's just no good point, IMO, as to why not knowing some of her songs means you're slacking as far as your connection to the black community goes. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

So for one, being attached to black American culture, or not doesnt define your blackness, I never said that and thats on you guys if you guys every made that implication. Ive literally said my own dad would probably be one of those people because he actively does avoid most modern music. I wouldnt say hes not black, but I would say he actively avoids engaging with modern black culture for the most part, he likes the music he grew up with and thats enough for him, but even then Im still sure hes heard a sza song without actually knowing it was sza.um, that's exactly what it means. there are people who are involved in black culture, studies, empowerment, etc. who might not have heard a SZA song, or at least, isn't familiar with her music. that's why I say it's a dumb metric, since it's something only you go by, and it's always someone on the internet that tries to explain how involved others are in black culture/how black others are. and like I said before, how you get your music these days is different than it used to be. let's say my top five favorite artists are: Drake, Kendrick, Lil Durk, 21 Savage, and The Weeknd, so I put in their playlists on Spotify - I might be listening to current music, and by chance, SZA might be featured on one or two of the songs that regularly play, but because the algorithm thinks I'm looking for a more specific sound, I might never hear Snooze, for example. gamepimp12 posted... basically everyone got mad I said youre not actively apart of black American culture for not knowing one of the biggest acts in not only urban music but music in general right now because it was a silly thing to say. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

i think its a very fair metric though culture is defined by shared experiences, and while obviously not everyone shares EVERY experience, its certain things that its hard to miss without actively not participating in said culture.you literally said that not knowing who SZA is means you're not attached to black people or culture. also, I still disagree. for one, if you're going to a club/party, what you're listening to is curated by the DJ or person controlling the music. secondly, these days, if you're listening to streaming, the music you listen to is often based on what sounds similar to someone/something else - like, if I choose to listen to a rap artist, I might not get any r&b recommendations unless if that artist features on a song. thirdly, because of streaming, a lot of people don't listen to the radio anymore and might not hear of certain hits. lastly, even though SZA is a popular artist, the biggest consumer of black music has always been white people, and the continued success of Snooze might not necessarily be a product of black culture. my main point is that a lot of things can slip through the cracks for a person while they're still involved with black culture, and creating these boundaries doesn't help anyone. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

you're using a standard that you made up to measure black American culture, and then you judged others for not meeting it. as for the Rolling Stone thing, my bad, but I'm not going to make any judgements on black culture based on awards meted out by a traditionally white publication. edit: at post 136 --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.

especially when citing Rolling Stone - idgaf about what Rolling Stone has to say, and I definitely don't use them to gauge blackness, lmao. anyway, as someone who listens to rap & r&b, I've been aware of SZA for years, but she was never my favorite artist (nothing against her, but I just didn't go looking for her music), so I haven't listened to Snooze until this topic. --- "I could never encapsulate all my cosmicality on my own." - mr.
