Generally, the world needs way more ELO/Jellyfish-influenced acts and way less Aretha Franklin/James Brown-influenced acts. That would make music better.

No doubt the main DJ at the V Festival will be Sean "Guilty Pleasures" Rowley, the Steve Walsh of his age, turning up and playing the same four records for another 50 grand. Nice work if you can invent it.

This has nothing to do with skin colour. I hate R&B and funk for its lack of melody and harmony, not because it's associated with black people.
A lot of great melodic music has been made by black people and even more awful and completely unlistenable non-melodic music has been made by white people.
