1. I loved old people, they just say whatever they feel.

2. Black people need to stop seeking white validation. America would not have any original music if was not for Black people.

3. Tbh ion think he lied or being sexist. If you don't believe him go and try to have an articulate, intellectual conversation with the women he talking about & make your own conclusions from that. Just cause make good music doesn't mean you can hold an actual conversation of intelligence with them.

4. what this guy really means is "i don't understand their language and they are speaking in a way that I do not confirm to be acceptable"

5. Where do they think they got the name Rolling Stone from? How is the magazine going to appropriate the name and speak ill of black artist.

6. Lol mad loser racist vibe

7. F^<% his apology!!!

8. And we wonder why so many black artists are never included and why the top of theses lists always look the way they look. And most of those rockstars barely have high school diplomas, what kind of articulate, intellectual conversations did he have with them?

9. Slave masters understood our value to them too.

10. It’s always some rhythm-less and unseasoned goofy talking crazy smh

11. Curtis mayfield, Tupac , bob marley how. Can’t name three white that’s comparable.

12. They told TLC that the last time they put a black artist on their cover it didn't sell, so they gave the cover to Eminem and only featured TLC inside. Mind you TLC has sold (Not streamed) over 85 Million albums.

13. I’m not saying I agree with him, but I understand – Chris Rock

14. I think the 77 year old crackpot was referring to "sukiana, sexy red and glorilla"! In that case he gets a pass from the hood……

15. yall need to cover the story of the daycare owner that had the kids around drugs in NY ASAP thats your donkey of the day

16. White liberals 🤦🏾

17. I’d rather these types of people say this out loud so people will not deal with the rolling stone magazine so we can stay safe from people like them

18. BOYYY LMAO! 77 years old with the blatant prejudice. Wish more people were outright with this. Don't hide it.

19. Don't ever think all of these people respect or even like us..

20. He’s referring to the current generations shitty music

21. When white people show you and tell you who they are believe them.

22. im still waiting on brickface to get donkey of the day

23. Everything here in America is about race.

24. Truth is if black people ran large industries they’d be as bad or worse when it came to diversity

25. Papa was a what???

26. He looks like he rolled out of a dumpster. He is one to speak.

27. Just say y’all want race war !!!!!! Who cares bout THEY OPINION IN 2023

28. What is really crazy is that Jan Simon Wenner is both gay and J•wish — two groups who experience bigotry and always talk about that. It amazes me when ppl from these groups can hypocritically be biased and bigoted toward others. I see this a lot nowadays (e.g. Edward Blum, Stephen Miller, Ben Shapiro, Jared Kushner, etc), especially from the latter group. If you didn't like it done to yours, don't do it to mine!

29. Is ANY of us black folk surprised?!!! I mean, seriously…..The man called the thing "The Masters"!!! 😳😳😳😳😳 Duh!!! Of course, that's not ironic that it's all "Mayonnaise Mammals" within it!
    STOP ACTING SURPRISED WHEN THEY CONTINUE BEING THEM! 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️
    "WHEN THEY SHOW YOU WHO THEY ARE, BELIEVE THEM." 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

30. This is fucking crazy…but wholy not surprising.

31. I love when old why people talk. They are Always telling on themselves, exposing whom they've been their whole lives🤣🤣

32. Dumb musicians are not articulate, no matter what colour they are. If you only expose yourself to the Glorilla's, then you are only going to have a one dimensional idea of artists. The man is a dinosaur.

33. I say that all the time.

34. He probably talking about Cardi b, but she not even black fr

35. I ❤ the fact that he stumbled through a sentence where he calls OTHERS inarticulate….

36. His speaking about today. The music in general is trash. No instruments and only shooting and twerking is trash.

37. He's so rude and ignorant,he apologized but he's still racist

38. The ironies of ironies is that he named his magazine after a song that a black man wrote ( Muddy Waters’s Rollin Stone)

39. It’s crazy to include any member of the Beatles in this book and then turn around and speak down on black artists. The Beatles wouldn’t even be here without black people. Let them speak to you on the history of rock in America and it’ll shut em up.

40. Being a black women in todays is truly a challenge, only resolution is withdraw our support from everyone.
