youre late but i'll allow it.

Preciate it...the way she was playing them links with speed and precision it came out so damn natural.

She had them brits in awe...and in the rain

I bet she had to tame her playing sometimes as to not scare people because they weren't used to seeing a black woman so skilled on guitar. ..was one video where the cacs refused to show her playing the guitar...like they cut to her face and tried their best not to get a good shot of her playing all up and down the fretboard..

Pissed me off

She is up front and center in the upcoming Elvis biopic.

Why does Elvis have a biopic? The man was a well known pedophile and plagiarizer.

i am wondering if she is gonna be profoundly and accurrately protrayed.
as the trailer looks as though.
it will gloss over her performing and just focus on elvis as a kid plagarizing her material.

we will see when this movie drops.
i am kinda conflicted in even seeing it to tell the truth.
especially if they play her like she is just some no name artist.
where young elvis shows no real interest on screen to whom she is.

they come in our spaces and study our whole shyt

it's not just general "whtie man stole everything" sayings

they were in music clubs, churches, etc and writing down riffs on their sleeves. even when it was just black musicians practicing they took and sold the music as their own

I think the Stones said they were either at Tharpes church or they were at other churches just basically taking notes


For our other diasporan brehs, a whole white band just won best Reggae act

You don't see the triple humbucker setup that often, so I was definitely surprised to see it.

Makes me miss my guitars.

What makes it noteworthy then? I'm sure that UB40 was in the running for Reggae Grammy before.
