"Let's talk about the main criticisms of each Sub-Genre/era in Black Musi..."
Fri Feb-03-17 06:05 PM by -DJ R-Tistic-

  

          

Being that I'm in my early 30's now, I've realized that almost every sub-genre in each era has faced criticism for completely different reasons, mainly coming from those who were fans of previous eras, or even the inspiring genres/sub-genres.

If what I'm saying is a bit unclear....I'll start, just to show what I mean. You can mention what you've heard other folks complain about, or your own feelings about it...either way works.
