What you're not understanding is wealth does not necessarily have anything to do with decadence. First of all, a poor person with really bad priorities can be decadent. But my intention with the term was to describe cultural decadence... some sort of sick and pretentious need from a nihilistic mind to refute the standards of music and create a shock. That is all punk rockers and heavy metal people aspire to do... shock.
And good luck dancing to that crap. I don't think it's possible. There is no way that that Brazilian song, that Cameroon song, or that Trinidad song didn't make you toe tap at least a little."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi
"I have nothing against Wilson, but he's nowhere near the same calibre of QB as Flutie. Flutie threw for 5k+ yards in the CFL." -Ben Kenobi

Dance music tends to be the worst of the worst. Dance-ability is not a metric for which I grade music."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
Ben Kenobi: "That means I'm doing something right. "

If it doesn't move me to dance, I consider it crap.

Dance-ability is a decent metric, one simply has to cut the common herd out of the equation.

Okay I went through and heard snippets of what you posted... yeah, the only thing that stuff motivates me to do is turn it off. It's not pleasant to hear. But it's not as terrible as I was expecting...
I was expecting this, which Bugs posted earlier...

More pearls before swine...
I mean you're not human if you don't enjoy music like that. It just doesn't get better than that.
