This was in my inbox today from Hit Songs Deconstructed. I laughed my ass off as basically they were saying no mo niggas, HOO RAH!!!!
And when you think about it...
2015, mainstream pop shit. They don't need us no more.
Talk about it.

2952517, ahem.."prominence"? .... "in a year"?

"Funk’s prominence in the top 10 dropped down to nil for the first time in a year due to the departure of Can’t Feel My Face"
If we are talking "prominence" and "first time in a year"....
that's a pretty flimsy standard for "don't need us no more"
"Don't need us" is NO prominence at all for years (if not decades).
I mean if funk only fell off FOR THE FIRST TIME this year then it was AROUND before that first time that it fell off this year, right?
Who expected funk to be around the mainstream in 2015?

"uptown funk" is also a "bastion" as far as "mainstream funk" is concerned ("uptown funk" was a major hit so.....)
but....
It seems some "pivoting" is going on, and the article doesn't matter much...if it ever did for the purposes of this post.
