stupidest tag ever

I agree it's not a musical genre. And I admit I really don't get the concept. It should be called Afro-hipster. To me, Afropunk seems to be a term coined for Afro-Americans with Pitchfork-friendly musical tastes. As much as I think Erykah Badu and Janelle Monae are great artists, they strictly have nothing to do with punk (yet they are palatable to Pitchfork readers). Now if you say The BellRays or Noisettes are Afropunk, I'll tend to agree.

its not a musical genre. not all tags are genres. thats why they're called tags. Afro-punk is a website for black punks that does a music festival and compilations.

didnt kno it was this serious.....music is music right???
