I'm not trying to be difficult. But what does any of this shit have to do with the topic at hand?

You're saying "eclectic thing", meaning what? and if you're not disappointed that rock oriented black musicians *AND* non-rock oriented musicians ( which is pretty much the OPPOSITE of who you were talking about at first) didn' jump on her style, then what are you asking of her?

What the hell does that even mean. Reread your post.

You basically said: 'It doesn't bother me that musicians did or didn't jump on her style.'

That's the most non-committal shit ever said. How can you even have an opinion, when you, by your own admission, DON'T HAVE AN OPINION?

"I'm not disappointed that people did or didn't want to do what she was trying to do.."

But she hasn't made anything in that vein ( this so-called blend of Funk/Soul/Rock) since then? If she "stood out" or was trying to, she'd be making more of this shit, right? Fishbone fought the good fight from the 80's until the 00's. If you're trying to change the world, you don't throw in the towel after ONE attempt at it...




C'mon man. Let's talk about music...
