Episode #131 - Death to Dad Rock

Elvis Does it Better

This was going to be the title of the episode because I think that it is one of the funnier bits on this show & it was the catalyst to the realization that nothing sums up the ignorance of people than saying “Elvis does a better version of this.” It is no secret that blues, rock n roll, you name it was a stolen artwork from the African American people. Elvis was the poster boy for this thievery. What makes the case of Elvis even more hilarious as racist use him to hide they intentions is that Elvis didn’t even write anything. He just sang other peoples music. Black People’s music. Aretha Franklin is not to be compared to Elvis. Don’t let your ignorance deafen your enjoyment of the world around you.

Generation Clash

Generation Clash was founded in 2019 while I was sitting in my room going through my record collection and I realized that some of my favourite music was by artists that I never heard my friends talking about. It felt special that I discovered them from going to record stores and flipping through records and these artists caught my eye.
