    You and I have similar tastes/opinions. I'll respect artists for redefining their genre or whatever. But that doesn't mean I need to love their music.

    I mean, people love when any band does a great cover of a super famous song. As you said early, people are dumb (not implying you are dumb.) Ziggy has been nominated, and won, for Reggae album of the year MULTIPLE times. Because his dad is more popular isn't of correlation to his skill level. Clearly Ziggy is really good too.

    All good though. You've got great taste in music from this, and our previous music conversations.

    This conversation did inspire me to put on some old Capelton, Sizzla, and Buju Banton while I lounge by the pool today on this brutal summer day.

    I just came here for the Seger debate. I would say that while I don’t go around saying that Seger’s overall catalog is an all-time great, I would say that the song Night Moves does qualify for this category. I read somewhere that he spent his career trying and failing to make a song like that again. I’d agree with this.

    It was feeling like a bait and switch and we have too many ambulance chasing lawyers on here to have that exposure.

    Getting this thread labeled Bob Seger debate is my crowning achievement on Too Hot

    I don't know. The compliment from chubee about your garbage company was pretty high up there.

    Agree. Sugar Hill Gang are pioneers of a genre.
    But i literally know one of their songs and its all I care to after hearing Rappers Delight a million times.
