Jerry Garcia on Rap Music
« on: October 29, 2024, 01:51:12 PM »

Just spotted this on FB and wondered if it is genuine or an AI fake.

Absolutely legit.  I've seen this before ... heck I said this before I ever saw it.  Rap is an art form, but it's rhythmic poetry, not music.  Right on, Jerry!

AI is scary good sometimes - but it's not good enough to be that much Jerry; it's real.

It's one of the areas where I disagree with Jerry. While not all rap music is good rap or good music, there is some excellent rap which is good music. Should we also say that Pigpen's raps weren't music? "Get your hands out of your pockets!"
