Disco

Disco is a genre of dance-oriented music that originated in African American, gay and Hispanic American communities in 1970s. In what is considered a forerunner to disco style clubs in February 1970 New York City DJ David Mancuso opened The Loft, a members-only private dance club set in his own home. Most agree that the first disco songs were released in 1973, though some claim that Soul Makossa by Manu Dibango’s from 1972 to be the first disco record.

People hate disco b/c their fucking ignorant assholes. Disco is a live and well. Disco is love. Disco is freedom. Disco is now!!! People who hate disco are people who have/had no idea that this was true genre before the hype and mainstream disco is wut people hated....b/c of the carbon copies and exploitation

The cheesiest genre that ever existed.The big record labels made millions out of it from air headed people who went beserk as soon as they heard the nausiating beat associated with it.The music industry hieracy are still trying to push this beat onto us but without the success they had in the '70's peak.I wish they would stop trying & start concentrating on a more worth while genre / brand of music, personally.
