[QUOTE=Sporkfire;27632411]Including every single piece is one thing, excluding some of the biggest musical genres in the world is another. You don't even have anything on Pop/R&B and thats actually the most listened to genre in the world (shit you excluded electronic music, which is nearly as big and has been around since the late 50s). Anyways it'll probably won't matter anyways, you go to public school I guess? As long as you write HERP DURP ROCK N ROLL all over it, I'm sure you'll pass. Your paper sucks.[/QUOTE] [b][i]Jesus fucking CHRIST[/i][/b] you're a douchebag! Why do you give a shit? why are you sitting here putting him down constantly, just shut the fuck up already guy he already basically told you he doesn't give a fuck and I doubt the rest of us give a shit what you're saying as well. If you can give him some advice without being a total douchebag about it, well hey go right ahead, but you just keep saying how he can't write and how his paper sucks. He can, and it doesn't. let's see you do better. until than, please - i'm asking you kindly (i said please, see?) - shut the fuck up. Love, Peavy262

Also, I usually just tend to keep away from threads with titles such as "Why do people like -insert genre/band here-" or "-genre/band- Sucks"
[QUOTE=AK'z;27646290]R&B hasn't evolved much in the last 20 years. I wouldn't have thought electronica could go much into depth apart from mentioning an advance in technology... But that could be said for everything. There are FAR too many instances where pop has had an unusual occurance not to mention 40 pop charts across the globe...[/QUOTE] says you, you're still reverting to your opinion and not on the importance of genres as a whole. A teacher won't care whether they like or not like the genres in the essay, they want the whole scoop.

"Oh that teacher won't like it, you will fail" Who the fuck wants to discuss that on the music forum?[/QUOTE] Well yeah if the teacher doesn't like it, they'll fail. But I've already made some suggestions and gave reasons why. I've already put it bluntly thats probably not a good idea to dismiss other genres, especially if they're as big or even bigger. His paper would've been fine if the question was in response to how those 3 genres evolved, but its not, it's music as a whole. I'm sure he can skip out on Aborigine throat singing, but excluding r&b, blues, electronica, pop, just makes the paper incomplete.
Who said he was going to disregard blues and pop? Electronica and R&B didn't really have a cultural birth, thus how much depth could you really go into them? You tell me that? I've mentioned Michael Jackson. I think you couldn't really go a lot further in terms of breakthroughs. DJ Shadow's Endtroducing could probably have been a landmark when it comes to turntablism. In terms of electronica, Kraftwere and Aphex Twin could be mentioned but still the latter doesn't really need to be seen as a breakthrough as compared to something that can just be named great and move on.

If you lived in Germany or different parts of Europe though, I'm sure the cultural birth of electronica would be more obvious to you. I don't understand why you would downplay Kraftwerk. You did this before in another thread and a bunch of people basically called you out for it. Kraftwerk was revolutionary (or breakthrough if thats the word you're looking for) it influenced genres across the board, not just electronica. read influences: [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraftwerk[/url]

They were very creative. I suggest En-Gauge mentions them in his article. He is struggling, and needs our help because of that. Why should you start an arguement because he needs help on it.

It's obvious he's hardly paying attention, so I'm not going to spend much of time making elaborations for him. That one sentence alone should be enough, its big, it's important, why would you leave it out of "music"?

Unless you'd say they were the modern equivalent which would be ridiculous. Janelle Monae has been amazing in what she does, but has she made a breakthrough to the world? Nope... hardly sold as much as she should have.

They are not significant eras in this so stop making out as if they are. Nobody is saying disregard them, they just aren't on topic at all.
I swear one of the ways that they check you haven't just copied people is by searching for what you've written on the internet, it's probably best if you take that out of the OP just to be safe
I better see fucking Robert Johnson in this paper. REALLY important guy.

It didn't do anything new like the early psychedelic stuff did.
