Well, there was no graph yet obviously, because the data had not yet finished compiling for the night.

But let me show you the EXACT Tweet I was looking at when I made that statement (It's actually from respected music writer Amy Linden):

https://twitter.com/notfornothin59/status/219605216138510337

And yeah, I asked: Why are you gonna blame BET for making kids not know who D'Angelo is? Most of the BET's audience was probably between the ages of 4 and 9 last time he released any music. If he had been putting out music over the past decade, I'm sure BET would have played it. So yes, that IS his own fault.

Okay, guy (c) SoWhat

I'm not on a mission with anybody. maxxx and LittleX have their own points of view that they're expressing and I have my own. And none of us are really making the same argument.

But of course, to the D faithful it's always an issue of "If you're not for us, you're against us." Anybody with the slightest dissenting view becomes part of the amorphous Enemy.

>People like it...and you don't. Get over the shit and move the

I've said that a bunch of times. If you like it, you like it. I have no problem with that... But why do you get so insecure when someone else says they *don't* like it?
