  Hey, guys! I swapped Donnie for Melanie Fiona in the connected artists. Thought maybe the list could use a newer artist for all to enjoy. Take care folks. Happy Holidays. :)

  i'm late in the discussion, and i really don't want to rock the boat, but I see where grzymol is going... if we were to just look at tagging artists based on the definition of classical, there would be plenty to fill the roster. not for nor against. just saying.

  You looked up "classical music" in the dictionary and it gave you that definition. You are surprised? "Black classical music" is a different term with a different meaning, not just "classical music" with the adjective "black" pinned to it.

  from the oxford english dictionary - classical music - serious or conventional music following long-established principles rather than a folk, jazz por popular tradition; classic - judged over a period of time to be of the highest quality and outstanding of its kind; so - whether the phrase was really coined by great Nina Simone or not i still think that precision in using the language might only help so Black Classic Music seems to be the only not misleading and clear message; all the best 2 u all :)))

  hello; i admire the lot here, i even listen to some ;) and at the same time i still think that the music here is classic, whereas classical are bach or stockhausen or xenakis or reich, for instance - in other words you are listening to a more or less ambitious ENTERTAINMENT (leaving aside jazz giants like davis or lester bowie here) stuff which i think is all about feeling nice, having fun and forgetting while classical music has always been part of ART, which is all about tearing apart, passion and learning; all the best and take care :)))
