Got any more info on the Dixie-fixation of the white working class in the last few decades? I was starting to feel like nobody else had noticed how weird all that is. As an aside, as a fan of a lot of 70s/80s rock, the consequences of the southern spread were disastrous. People from the rust belt should not be listening to country music, it\u2019s weird and unnatural.
I mean I can spitball some more, the Billy Ray Cyrus boom was really simultaneous with the emergence of “alternative” AND gangsta rap, as culture industries focused on audience segmentation after the fairly pan-racial pop ‘80s melting pot
Pissed that LA hair metal pretty boys and fucking Gwar stole Kiss’ stage spectacle schtick?
