AFRO-PUNK

... the other Black experience

i am a self-proclaimed beat junkie, but my question is....where do I draw the line?  I find myself listening to hip hop, rock, reggae....all kind of ish.........so is it still cool for me to beat box to tejano music...or put a hip hop beat on a country tune?....we do a punk version of a willie nelson cover......is this wrong?.....I'm just sayin

It's only wrong if it sounds bands. Besides, they already do country with rap production. They call it modern R&B nowadays.
True.......True
i heard a with a woman that played violin & rapped, a beatboxer & another dude (i think he played guitar), they were called "the country teaspoons" or some shit like that. (i absolutely got the name totally wrong). they were just featured on npr. they were totally original & did a great job. so - yeah, i agree with GPRr above, the only reason you can't/shouldn't do it is if it sounds BAD. cause then you're making that other kind of music...("there's only two kinds of music - good and bad" - louie armstrong)
