Perhaps he should keep on, keeping on and anyone who has a problem with it should mind their own fucking business, before someone shoves a running chainsaw up their ass.Perhaps he should stop making money playing their music.Fuck these people, their award is trash.
This. If compliance with lefty politics is a prerequisite for an award, then the award is not even about music. Worse yet, compliance with lefty politics as a prerequisite delegitimizes the achievements of previous award winners. It means that previous winners only got their win because of their politics, not because of their music.Fuck these people, their award is trash.
WTF are you babbling about?The same reason leftists fly their stupid hammer and sickle flag when they protest.
No music awards will ever be legit if the artists are required to have a certain political ideology.That's exactly what the Blues Foundation is doing. They are going ahead with their event without KWS.Perhaps he should keep on, keeping on and anyone who has a problem with it should mind their own fucking business,
Free speech has consequences.
Dixie Chicks make you a liar.By whom?...I think that's all in your head...conservatives don't cancel folks for their beliefs....we still believe in freedom of speech and of thought....He would be shot and you know it.Fine...he wouldn't be cancelled and you know it....
It's Sad Puppies all over again.This. If compliance with lefty politics is a prerequisite for an award, then the award is not even about music.

Looks like the Blues Foundation just lost any shred of credibility they ever had by making PC more important than music.

It was the Dukes of Hazzard car and he actually had the top repainted a couple of years ago. It was posted yesterday.Why anyone would display a confederate flag while performing music of black people is beyond me.Guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd's nomination for Best Blues/Rock Artist in the 2021 Blues Music Awards has been revoked over his use of a Confederate flag. The decision was made by the Blues Foundation.
Shepherd's nomination was rescinded due to “continuing revelations of representations of the Confederate flag on Shepherd’s ‘General Lee’ car, guitars and elsewhere," according to a March 18 statement on the Foundation's website.
In addition, the organization has asked the guitarist's father, Ken Shepherd, to resign from its board of directors, as he's a member.
The Foundation also posted a statement on March 15 regarding racism.
“The Blues Foundation unequivocally condemns all forms and expressions of racism, including all symbols associated with white supremacy and the degradation of people of color. We will hold ourselves as well as all blues musicians, fans, organizations, and members of the music industry accountable for racist actions and encourage concrete commitments to acknowledge and redress the resulting pain.
The Blues Foundation acknowledges that racism contributed to the historic oppression and exploitation of African American blues musicians and recognizes that hateful acts of racism continue to afflict the blues community today. We consistently strive to identify, discuss, and challenge issues of race within the blues community. We commit to the ongoing development and implementation of strategies to dismantle structural and systemic racism within our programs, special events and organization. We hereby adopt an action plan to purposefully address racism and contribute to a more equitable blues community."
Liar. They were boycotted and banned on Country Music radio stations and conservatives held public hate events. Your lies are pathetic.Dixie Chicks make you a liar.By whom?...I think that's all in your head...conservatives don't cancel folks for their beliefs....we still believe in freedom of speech and of thought....He would be shot and you know it.Fine...he wouldn't be cancelled and you know it....
Dixie Chicks were never cancelled. They switched to Liberal Music, and the libs threw them under the bus, refusing to go to their concerts or buy their music.
He is ?The guy is still a great musician.
