Did not listen

Clapton is a despicable individual. To misappropriate an entire musical genre while ignoring the oppression that formed it, and going on to express the most loathsome of opinions on a public stage is unforgivable. It’s called the Blues for a reason, and Clapton has not, and never will earn the right to play it. I feel slightly sorry for Mayall being associated with him and apparently Clapton was only in the band for a short while. Skipping this one.

What a nice example of cultural appropriation!
