It has clearly been declining in quality over the years. It went from garbage to feces. Why is this?
People used to say the same things about jazz, I'm sure you can guess why.
thats kind of a biased comparison considering that there is still jazz made by black people today and there was r&b type stuff in the early 60's that is more comparable to pablo. Kanye and motown greats may have been pretty simple lyrically but as far as production and session instruments there is a lot of work and detailed attention to acheive the desired sound despite it just being pop music.

Yeah, what were those blacks thinking, all getting together and making Life of Pablo. I should have gone to the 2016 black people convention and stopped them from doing it.

Shouldn't you compare Mingus with something today that's actually considered good?
Jesus fuck I swear people do this all the time "lol I'll take this god tier album from back then and a shitty album from now to make a point", couldnt you take an amazing album from today and compare it to a shitty album from back then to argue the opposite of what you're saying?
Fuck right off retard

think about how much bad jazz there is that you dont know about
Kanye west is like the George Gershwin of black music. the popular white influenced kind. There's a lot of rappers out there making all sorts of music telling the lives of the decendants of those slaves from what seems so long ago. Just like blues band were a dime a dozen in the 10s and 20s

This, time forgets bad albums, even if they're trendy at the time they're made.
Christinanity keeping the black man down, giving him wrong role models
The rapper rolemodel is a supposed bridge to a preacher profession ---> Rap is recruiting blacks for priests

If I remember right I've read some black poems from black Slaves or some shit, maybe indentured servants I don't know how they knew how to write. But they would float triumphantly at their slave masters in their poems. Because they felt as though they would be freed in heaven from their toil after they died.
Just a story I guess
This music is from New Orleans the same city jazz is from if I'm not mistaken.
