He was married to a black woman and fought for black artists to be played on MTV :martin:

Beyonce. Jay-Z. Kanye West. When MTVlaunched in 1981, viewers would have been hard-pressed to find black artists, such as the three named above, on its airwaves. The network so sparingly showcased African Americans in its early days that musicians such as Rick James and David Bowie publicly took it to task, leaving no doubt that MTV and black music have had a rocky history.
No point trying to explain things to miserable human garbage, breh.
i honestly have never heard any of his music.
You have, even if you never realized it.

RIP Legend

I don't care about David Bowie like that but the fact that a white man is married to a black woman proves nothing really.
