    This group continues to ignore great black musicians if they happen to belong to purely electronic forms such as techno or house. I find it ironic that there should be this kind of discrimination. I have voiced this concern many times before but nothing changed. Apparently a great deal of the great black music I love so much doesn't belong here. Respectfully in silent protest, I take my leave. Peace.

    ... or don't. I don't think I belong in this group as it does not seem all inclusive of great black music. ;_( Cheers and happy listening.

    Considering johntardsbaby wrote "Please take note of the fact that the group is called "GREAT (and I emphasise the great) Black Music," I find it absolutely hilarious that Ye tops the overall chart for this group... Join me in giving thanks to black artists for bringing us house music and everything that came forth from it. A DJ saved my life.

    To the people complaining about there being no techno/house music: Please take note of the fact that the group is called "GREAT (and I emphasise the great) Black Music."
