2522425, Only if you assume that I think Warren G's music is 'bad'

Which I don't.

I'll admit that I was not a huge fan of 1990s G-funk, but I didn't think it was bad music. It just was not music that appealed to me personally.

I already said that I can't say for sure that Dam ever called his music "boogie" but it was often being sold that way in write-ups about him, including those by his label... I'm not saying that he has to make music that sounds like the shit that he was playing as a DJ, only that his DJing appeals to me more than his own music.

And I have heard him make comparisons between his music and Prince... and I'm sorry, I just don't hear it. Or maybe it's just that the aspects of Prince's music that I like are not the ones he seems to be drawing from.

(You're right that I do take issue with him being described as a "modern funk" act, too... but of course we've already established that I'm not a fan of most of this "modern funk" stuff to begin with!)
