Excellent lookback at the year in music from the Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/arts/features/story/0,11710,1109078,00.html)

Typical British publication, thinking it has to kiss ass to lame Black artists...

Actually, that's the US, Britain just sucks up to all the lame-arsed doodle artists, which most happen to be black because the USA has already put them up onto such an undeserved high pedestal.

This proves it, Mankie is Rhett.

Yes, whatthefuck has this got to do with race? I presume the reviewer is just interested in the music. I dont see any hidden racial agenda in what is said.
Maybe Rhett and mankie can have their own Klan meetings?

I rest my case on this:
Best album
Dizzee Rascal, Boy in Da Corner.
Best single
Beyoncé, Crazy In Love
Gig of the year
Rough Trade's 25th Anniversary Show, Neighbourhood, London.
Outstanding individual
Outkast's Andre "3000" Benjamin, an intelligent musical innovator, dressed like a true eccentric: the man is a proper pop star.
Quote of the year
"Bruce Springsteen fans are the kind of people whose neighbour has built a fence three centimetres into their land and it's killing them" - James Skelly of The Coral.

That probably is one of the very best pop singles from this year.

All three were worthy of the praise, IMO.

All Right. Good point. I guess I just come from the school of though that black folks made better music back in the 60's and 70's. Today's mainstream soul music just seems bland, overproduced, and lacking soul. And rap is just plain annoying. I want singing, not shouting.

Okay, when challenged bring out the tired old racist comeback.
Well it's happened for the last time, so may you all go fuck yourselves and have a miserable fucking holiday.

Sorry Mankie.
Some troll always brings up a race issue, when there is no issue. I should not have lumped you in with him.
