BALLADS IN B

Johnson’s article blatantly states that black artists are getting preferential treatment by the music industry.

That is the most ridiculous theory I have heard in some time. You have got to wonder what the purpose was in writing such an article (particularly by a black critic?!!)..

Johnson needs a lesson in history. Every time blacks begin to make strides forward, someone conjures up a “reverse discrimination” concept to pull us back.

Thanks for nothing, Johnson!
