I was thinking about music. Well watching Much More Music and something triggered in me.
Duets, duets you say? This particular one featured a white man and black woman. To me, it was unusual to see a white man with a black woman in a duet. I thought… hmm why is it so uncommon to see white male singers. Nick Lachey is really the only one who stands out right off the bat. I mean Michael Buble of course is the only exception to this rule because he is awesome.
That got me thinking about things… what if consumerism / capitalism are driving white men away from music? I myself would not even consider it even if i was amazing. It was no way to make money and of course if you want to buy a bmw then you have to make money. Don’t follow all those pipe dreams.
How unusual; business ideas from art. As I continue watching my mmmr, I’m now listening another group with a white male singer (Our Lady Peace). Capitalism must go in waves. you know like where you make so much money and get everything you want but in your mind you cry because maybe you wanted to be in a rock group. Maybe you had all the talent and drive but never got the chance. Maybe I’m coming to this epiphany right at the exact moment when this phase of the world is over? Maybe all this green movement and myspace page rockers is going to push us away from capitalism and into socialism?
