Open Mike Eagle: Im not playing this show tonight because Harvard and Stone is racist against rap music.

mikeeaglestinks:

I admit that I use the term ‘racist’ loosely.

In the past i’ve said that my android phone is racist against emojis and that Instagram is racist against Twitter. Aside from it simply being humorous to me, it points out the absurdity of an entity choosing not to operate alongside of another…

File this under “bulls**t. I can’t believe they did this to the homie.

People lost respect for the groove, everything is just so you know synthetic. That like it’s doesn’t really, it’s just missing the gut.

All of the artists did a great job representing different eras, McDaniels said. “I remember going to 42nd Street and going into a store called Crazy Eddie and I would look and think, ‘What am I gonna choose? Which box am I gonna get?’ That’s what it was like for me at 10 years old …11 years old. I can’t believe I was buying that stuff at that age, but that was our thing.
The legendary Ralph McDaniels from my story in the Amsterdam News on “The Boombox” exhibit at the House of Art Gallery in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.
