How come this generation doesn’t have a Ray Charles or Stevie Wonder?

[Standing on business]

 

[King Poetic]

Same reason this generation doesn’t have a R.Kelly or Babyface, a Tupac or Biggie, a Rakim or Krs-1….

nikkas don’t study history especially the real love, real political and social issues

 

[Wild self]

They were prematurely killed off when the church faded away from Black Life in the 21st century.

 

[Thebadguy]

Blind people can get disability now, so they aren't forced to learn how to play piano to survive.

 

[concise]

Nobody cares.

 

[Hater Eraser]

Stevie didnt even know this nikka was stanning him ..

 

[froggle]

 

[RammerJammer]

Cause nobody can sing anymore

We just half-ass sing over a melodic rap beat and call it a day

 

[Heretic]

because that new talented blind nikka patch ain't dropped yet

They were prematurely killed off when the church faded away from Black Life in the 21st century.

On the surface many people will say this is a ridiculous statement but the reality is this is truth. I’m not a religious person at all but those artist were heavily influenced and bred by the church. Pretty much every great artist credits the church for their talents.

 

[Dwayne_Taylor]

The only gimmick in black music these days is ganster/ drug dealing. No need for blind singers

 

[UncleTomFord15]

What about NBA Youngboy and SpotEmGotEm?

 

[OperationNumbNutts]

Easy. The industry push who they want to and people eventually listen to it. That's why ms. booty hole brown is actually popular.

 

[010101]

the only artist putting that much time into their craft now are unmarketable & unrelatable cornballs*

 

[Space Cowboy]

What about Joey Badass? That brother that looked into that eclipse? He don’t count?
