im just gonna say that blues has easily been THE MOST "Uncle Tom"'d genre of music ever and it boils down to either a hamfisted emulation or a patronizing endearment to "teh reel blooz" as opposed to taking the spirit and the style of it and using it to your own ends.
and i'm talking about blues/blues rock and not anything based on 1-4-5 and shit. Rockabilly isn't hamfisted or patronizing simply because it hasn't changed a damn thing about itself in 50 years, which makes it a museum act.
have i told you guys how snobby i am about folk traditions?

NO, THIS IS PERFECTLY PERTINENT AS FREEKISH BLUES HAS APPROPRIATED THE IMAGE OF "DA BLOOZ" FOR COMPLETELY MONETARY GAINS, ALL THE WHILE BUYING CHEAP PEDALS AND SELLING THEM FOR MORE, THUS MAKING A PROFIT OFF OF CHEAP AS SHIT STUFF REPAINTED, GOOPED AND SOLD FOR MARKUP PRICES, AS WELL AS CAPITALIZING NOT ONLY ON THE IMAGE OF THE OL MISSA BLOOZ MAN AS WELL AS THE MODERN RICH BLUES GUY VIA THEIR YOUTUBE ADS.

It's way deeper than that...there's some BS about getting your money back if you want to back out...something about "buying in" to get a refund Stinks of a ponzi scheme.
That's pretty sad. How can he knowingly sell those pieces of shit to people? Obviously, he only cares about getting views. I've never liked his demos but that's a pretty low sack of shit move.
I'm severely disappointed at the lack of female objectification in this demo. Freekish Blues has really lost their touch, I mean, now what the fuck am I supposed to use to accentuate my Dumble's fragile upper harmonics? A fuckin' Joyo or something?
