No pop trumps today - back next week.

In the meantime while Lex is still on holiday here's more fuel to the racism debate: Ethiopian chap in making electro-rock music shocker. Apparently this is too startling a prospect for major labels to deal with blah blah blah...

Except on listening to the dude's video it sounds pretty r'n'b to me! The Neptunes clearly still think it's 2003 at any rate...

Well there's clearly more going on here than 'racism' given that the article cites black listeners complaining that they don't like that style of music...though I don't think it's terribly well written. I think articles which are going to lead to accusations of racism need to be very clear and concise and not just rely on innuendo and implications.
