In this clip, Vlad and Aries Spears argue whether rhythm is an inherent or an acquired skill. Aries Spears wholeheartedly asserts that rhythm is naturally inherited, notably stating that black people have always had rhythm. However, Vlad pushes back, claiming rhythm can be learned through persistent practice. Citing his own experience as a professional DJ, he asserts that rhythm isn’t race-specific. The conversation then shifted toward the representation of black artists in media outlets such as MTV during its early years. Touching on the perceived bias towards "safe" black artists like Michael Jackson and Prince, the participants note the push for more inclusivity resulted from protests and boycotts against the limited opportunities for black artists on air. As the argument unfolds, it becomes clear that the debate is not just about rhythm but an underlying conversation about race and representation in the music industry.
