      @@Alex-ht8hg ...Anti-establishment~ I agree, Bowie was spot on. By saying, "in its white form," he likely knew that original rock & roll stemmed from the blues... Here the comparison was more about the rock that shocked & offended the 50's prim & proper middle/upper class population. (Generally speaking. IDK why it would have to be "white" but helped make his point with the 2nd part of his statement. There were famous exceptions in every music genre.)

    In 1993, it was true. Today, not so much. Bowie always had his finger on the pulse of interesting movements in music and art. Whether creating it himself or admiring that of others, he remained keenly aware of what was the current state of art and music. Nearly 30 years later, Hip Hop is further away from that incomparable era as Rock and Roll was from the late 60’s at the time this was recorded.

      Every to charting artist is a sellout in some way. If you're looking at the top 40 you're gonna find shitty music, but a lot of good rap music has been made in the underground and experimental rap scene. Albums like The Money Store by Death Grips, Some Rap Songs by Earl Sweatshirt, War In My Pen by MIKE, Veteran by JPEGMAFIA, Little Dominique's Nosebleed by Koreatown Oddity, etc are really quality and not "sellout". Even some popular rappers have released some great work. (Igor by Tyler The Creator, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West, To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar, etc.)

    Love how David could always hear creativity and innovation. Part of his success was identifying it and collaborating to advance his own music but he was always transparent about borrowing ideas and happy to complement the original.

    Though I'm not a fan of rap, I love David Bowie. He looks so handsome and beautifully done groomed in this clip. I think he went through many creative phases in his life, and often shocked people with his avant guard appearance & style. But there was always something solid about his artistry as a musician. Very complex gentleman, but very cool! RIP, David.
