Not to mention, Barry is the last surviving brother.
It was the Motown era that did it (way before my time.) See the movie about the Temptations when they went out on the road, the difference between the first time and the second time says it all.
Long live Motown and Rock, disco sucks.
I think some of us azb posters might be able this theory wrong.
Before Motown...Little Richard, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, and others...love the doo-wap and the early rock. Remember fiddling with my old bedroom 5 tube radio, pulling in early rock for the first time. I was 6th, maybe 7th grade. I knew it wasn't all Perry Como and Patti Page anymore...
Sort of. That was a start. Disco, otoh, brought blacks and whites to the bedrooms. to the suburbs ...to the maternity wards....to acceptance.
In the 70's, I say Archie Bunker, Roots, Disco, and one other I'm forgetting did the trick.

Start? Imagine the difference in times, during the time I mentioned, America was dealing with the most racist person ever, he led the longest filibuster in US history against Civil Rights. The people dancing to Motown at the time were setting the example for those you mention, in the end we agree as to the importance of music.
Music is often enjoyed while playing pool, a stereo and pool table were the first two things in my house when I built it.
Music and the rest of culture were the real drivers of society. TV, the pill, all of it.

How is rap in the same category as reality shows and crazy people who don't know what gender they are? I get that a lot of people don't like it, but a lot of people don't like jazz, opera, country, etc.

Rap is mainstream-acceptable racism.
All of it? Listen to Harry Mack. All positive.
