In principle no problem, Ill. However, avatars don't get an invite to the blog. In order to get an invite you have to supply your real name, verifiable phone number and e-mail address.

So, DV. Do you know as much about European "classical" music as you know about German philosophers? For example, Hegel?

ILLMATH said...

Mike it's me Ill... what do you mean? I'd appreciate if you made an exception. I'm not finna beg you bra. The assault was the actual liaison to DV.net and I enjoyed your perspective.

(another one of them build a clock but don't know what time it is Negros)

Uhh ... Mike. Actually I don't "know" much about European composers at all.

I just enjoy music bra.

It's in my soul.

If you still had one, you'd know what I was talking about.

But you just holding a receipt.

Hegel?

I know he's why you see the world as white v nonwhite.

What else is there to know?

Ill...

"I'd appreciate if you made an exception."

No begging expected. But why should I make an exception for a person who isn't willing to reveal who they are? You got something to hide? In any case, it wouldn't be fair to the other ex-avatars.

DV...

"I just enjoy music bra."

Well, most people do. Most people, however, don't make categorical absolute statements like you do. If you are going to pass judgment on Rachmaninov as compared to any other composer "throughout time", then it could be expected that you would know a bit about other composers since you are passing judgment on them as well. Besides the obvious such as Mozart and Beethoven have you ever listened to Brahms? Grieg? Tchaikovsky? Hayden? Bach?

"What else is there to know?"

And why is it that you proudly flaunt your ignorance of both, German philosophers and European composers?

You are one of the most willfully least-informed folks with a big mouth I've ever come across.

Denmark Vesey said...

Uh oh.

What's the matter Mike? Is it that 'Andrew Cunanan' time of the month again?

Wait!

Don't tell me. You not only invented Hip Hop. You invented Classical music too?

How many European composers have you worked with Mike?

No. You know what happened Mike? In the early 90's a group of "white" executives got together in Los Angeles and decided what kind of music the composers could and could not compose.

Mike. Toy Connor called.

She wants you to help her get some more acting gigs.

I told her you were busy getting Sophia Ramo's career on track, but you would probably use your considerable people skills to influence UBM and make him change his mind.

Michael Fisher said...

DV...

"Sophia Ramo's"

Like I said. Willfully ignorant.

It is "Ramos". Not "Ramo's".

Learn to spell. Or do you have a problem with Spanish as well?

(((shakin' head)))
