Much Love. Peace!
Please find me a fan of Taylor Swift that doesn't also like Iggy Azalea, Nicki Minaj or even Drake which are "urban" music whatever that means from some old white guys definitions of music.
What people fail to realize is the music "business" has grossly changed from 1960 to 2015...so, your "point" on Jimi Hendrix having hits compared to Beyonce makes no sense. You also said that in order to be "accepted" by America you have to be either Jazz/Blues/Rock, but then catch feelins when I point out 2 songs from one group that is RnB. Also, why isn't BB King the richest man in America since apparently his music is the ultimate acceptance of American music?
Matter fact - don't answer...I'm bored with this conversation - play on.
Using the human attention span to your advantage, huh? Or do you not read and comprehend?
1. Record sales mean NUTHING in this discussion. Which is the point of the discussion.....DUH! Taylor Swift is known as a country singer "who crossed over into pop". What are her fans going to remember her by (unless she totally changes to pop)? FANS! DO you know what a "FAN is? Ask Miley........but you should...being on FP......where it's normal that a person who loves MF DOOM most likely don't like Young Thug..same genre.....both nominated for a hip hop award (you get no sub genre because we allowed you to have your own category...shit...we don't want you winning over our Best Rock Music Award and calling yourselves kings of rock and all of that)...fuuck out of here...common sense.
2. Jimi does not have a classic if Bey doesn't. FOH.......ask someone black to name a Hendrix song.........25 or younger..............common sense. But if you listen to Rock or Blues music.......you will name Purple Haze......and if you are a Fan of Hendrix you will name some shit nobody know about......
3. What two songs that are Rhythm and BLUES? Bet they were nominated as "Rock songs" also..........but damn........it still "defeats the purpose" of why I said that....you nit picking.
4. BB King...........richest in America.........you asking me why? End of discussion.
I give you this much because you wanted it. I give you no more because you were ignorant enough to ask that BB King question.
