not this white man's apparently

https://www.markprindle.com/davis.htm

>"Miles Ahead" by Miles Davis - Miles sticks his dick in a trumpet and wiggles it around so it goes "eee eee" against the sides.
>Which brings us back to "Cool Jazz." "Cool"? More like "DOOL!" (dull) One of the songs even has a harp in it, for Christ's sake. Was he high on PCP and hallucinating that he was in Heaven or something? Dude, I've been to Heaven and it sounds like the first DRI album, not this shizzizzatizza. Can you imagine St. Peter at the Pearly Gates trying to sit through "Once Upon A Summertime" or "Wait Til You See Her"? Christ, no wonder he sends all black people to Hell!
>He always sounds like the trumpet is about to fall out of his mouth! Every first note is blown to shit, and he clearly has no idea how far to stand from the microphone before blowing (and i DO mean "blowing") into that shit-covered toilet plunger he has the nerve to call a "musical instrument."

Good then why aren't these so-called sidemen releasing their own album, it would technically be at Miles Davis level.

This is exactly how David Bowie liked to work, so why the race baiting?

>Hopelessly addicted to smack starting in his teens. Despite being a supreme trust fund kid (Dad was Dentist and owned properties and a ranch) Miles Davis resorted to sexual favors to score heroin when he had no money

Same reason Taylor Swifts songwriters don't just make their own projects instead: it's a brand essentially. The music and writing itself only make up 1/2/of it and the share gets smaller the bigger the mame gets

I’m racist but I’ll admit Miles Davis was as cool as the other side of the pillow
