>>126925604 (OP)It was music specifically for gay black men. And white people hated it because you could see the potential if you had actual musicians making disco music. That's why dico never died, it evolved. You can see elements of it in every genre from outlaw country to today's most popular music. Black people's music is all wasted potential. That's why it never takes off til whites perfect it. Look at the blues, for example. Or rap music. It struggled for years to find a foothold until Eminem came along.
