>Nina Simone said this

Fuck her. I could understand this quote if it was uttered by Mingus, but Nina is utter pop trash.

>Jazz is a white term to define black people
Not true.

>My music is black classical music.
Again not true.

Why do you like this, op? You think it's clever or something?

>"We were playing a festival in Dublin the other week. There was this other group, like, warming up in the next sort of chalet, and they were terrible. I said, 'Shut them cunts up!' And they were still warming up, so I threw a bottle at them. The bands said, 'That's the Sons of Mumford' or something. 'They're number five in charts!' I just thought they were a load of retarded Irish folk singers."

It's not like that man, she's just used as the representative of "cool cred" with black music. She didn't actually make a lot of good stuff.

I'm not dismissing her as a person, I'm just dismissing her music, wich doesn't show any sort of classical training.
It's pop music mate, nothing more.

Her studio albums were pop. If you watch her live at montreux she shows her classical routes and her live performances were known for improvisation

>I don't do drugs
>what do you spend your money on?

>and her live performances were known for improvisation
Wich is not what classical piano virtuosos do.
I've heard her playing piano, and her technique is sloppy at best. She could have never made it in the classical world.

I'm not comparing her to classical music with her improvisation, I'm just trying to dispute you calling her 'pop trash'
