I don't care who buys the record so long as they get to the Black people so I will be remembered when I die. I'm not playing for any white people, man. I wanna hear a black guy say 'Yeah, I dig Miles Davis.'

Hoe much of an asshole do you have to be to have a problem with something you laughed at

SHILL THREAD

but there is nothing wrong with this. Who doesn't want to be respected among their own community/people?

he most likely experienced racism being that he was around through the 40s and 60s, probably been called the n word to his face before by a white person

Source?

Funny, because Miles Davis is probably one of the whitest jazz musicians out there. He spent most of his career emulating white cool jazz musicians such as Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitiz, and, most importantly, his biggest influence of all Chet Baker. It's a fact that he was deeply insecure because he couldn't keep up with the bebop associates, and later he falsely claimed that he had invented every style of jazz post Charlie Parker. I can't believe anyone seriously likes Miles Davis at all - he's one of the most overhyped artist ever, and was a huge dickhead to basically everybody. He's only popular with the normies because of jazz fusion, a stupid off-shoot of RnB that nobody cares about. Rockists gonna rock. Truth hurts, doesn't it?

Fuck off Schlomo.

>He's only popular with the normies because of jazz fusion
Stop being facetious, he's popular because of Kind of Blue.

Yeah, sure. But On The Corner is great too.

This is a race baiting shill thread, it's not to be taken seriously.

>Hoe

Well with that in mind...

.... Miles Davis, a self-proclaimed champion of black music and culture built his entire career upon the back of a white man. He guilted Evans with late night tales of slavery and under the guise of reparations into acquiring the rights to the greatest song of all time, Blue in Green, and another fantastic number. Flamenco Sketches. Without these tracks, Kind of Blue falls flat on it's face, and is as unremarkable as the works straight from Davis' own brain.

Davis' claim to fame, and frankly the only reason he is remembered, comes from a man whose race Davis has repeatedly implied was inferior to every way and specifically in an artistic sense. So not only is Miles Davis a complete fraud, he is a self-aware fraud who stole from others in an effort to propel his race beyond another.

as a black it kind of made me sad that evans atmospheric playing almost solely made the record

is this true, sauce

>caring about an album as shitty as Kind of Blue

Miles quite literally spawned cool jazz on Birth of the Cool, so no, not at all youre taking bad bait

Davis is equally essential of course but Evans is just as crucial

is this true actually true kek?

I exaggerated significantly, but it is widely believed that Evans wrote Blue in Green and Flamenco Sketches

>Liner notes list Davis as writer of all compositions, but many scholars and fans believe that Bill Evans wrote part or the whole of "Blue in Green" and "Flamenco Sketches".[11] Bill Evans assumed co-credit with Davis for "Blue in Green" when recording it on his Portrait in Jazz album. The Davis estate acknowledged Evans' authorship in 2002.
