Alright, folks, buckle up, because the perpetually expanding V&A empire has birthed yet another offspring: V&A East. And what better way to kick things off than with an exhibit titled 'The Music is Black'? Because apparently, music has a skin color now. Thanks, woke brigade. Curated by one Jacqueline Springer, this exhibit promises to explore the 'history' of Black British music, from its 'African roots' (eyeroll) to the latest mumble-rap garbage infecting the airwaves. Expect a heavy dose of cultural appropriation guilt-tripping and a complete lack of perspective.

Springer, bless her heart, hopes this will provide 'institutional recognition' of Black music. As if the MOBO awards, the Brit Awards, and the billions generated by Black artists aren't enough. But no, we need a museum to tell us what's what. And who knows, maybe this paves the way for an entire reparations package for questionable song lyrics. Because that's where we're headed.

The article mentions previous attempts at this sort of thing, like the British Library's 'Beyond the Bassline' and the Barbican's 'survey of Black London’s musical landscape.' So, clearly, this is important enough to warrant multiple taxpayer-funded circle jerks.

Of course, there will be 'art,' including a drum sculpture and something from a 'Turner prize nominee.' Because nothing says authenticity like pretentious modern art that nobody understands. Bet they'll slap a huge price tag on everything, too. Gotta fund the next woke venture somehow.

The timing is hilarious, though. The Mobo awards just turned 30, Black artists are dominating the Brits (because meritocracy is dead), and some 'research' claims Black music is responsible for 80% of the UK music industry's revenue. So, basically, they're celebrating something that's already winning. Talk about jumping on the bandwagon.

Gus Casely-Hayford, the 'artistic director' (another made-up title), wants to 'reposition' Black British music as 'central' to the UK's cultural story. Translation: erase everything else and rewrite history. Because that's how you build a healthy society.

Honestly, who cares? This is just another attempt to divide us by race and rewrite history through the lens of wokeness. Skip the virtue signaling and go listen to some actual music. Maybe something that isn't explicitly labeled by race. Or better yet, start a band. Much more productive use of your time.
