42. I once was reading this "debate" about rap on the "internets"

Wed Oct 15, 2025, 11:47 AM

Wednesday

It was a debate between a Brit and an American. The Brit was denigrating rap. The American pointed out Jay-Z wowed the crowd at Glastonbury. A lot of MAGAS compare him unfavorably to Bob Seger. I love some of his work. He was huge in the late 70s. However his body of work isn't impressive as Springsteen's work. If they knew Bob's politics they would hate him too. He just doesn’t have Bruce's platform.
