Johnny was possibly the smartest punk rocker in history.

I know where hes coming from. Hes not a racist hes just saying that he knows he couldnt play little richard or robert johnson because he isnt a blues musician or a soul musician. Would you rather he take a genre that people put there heart and soul into and try to fake it? Thats why i hate suburban punks talking about hard times driving there dads bmw or rappers that never spent a day outside the culdasac rapping about the streets when they never been to a project. Not racist. Just not a poser

@MalchikBlue

That is excatly what i am talking about, they didnt wanna go to see Jazz musicians, cause white people had complex, attaking the black ,just because of their colour, and offcourse they had to defend themselves Johnny never had any black friend, Joey made a rockaway beach video with captain sensible-black musician, if Johnny would like rockn roll he would mention also CHUCK BERRY, LITTLE RICHARD,DIDLEY and not some lousy Elvis who was a idol of white american racist and i am white.

@DiegosHideout he didnt make a racist statement he just said that he couldnt relate to blues because it was too black and he was a total white boy. he wasnst trying not to liek it he just didnt.

@BluntObject1234 i've gotten in trouble with "liberals" oh and conservatives too! fuck politics! lets just say pussies! I told a "liberal" woman That i know of that there will never be peace on earth and we should focus on ourselves and help those who are close to us. She was offended. Over what? facts? I love peace and empowering myself as woman...... that why I have a bank account. So much better than that club of sensitive guilt tripping bullshit "victims" who cry when they see swastikas.
