Essentially the Jimi Hendirx of blues. Considered by many to be one of the most influencial guitarists (Blues or otherwise) of all time and the undisputed king of blues.
He and Jimi collaborated on a few songs, and if he were dead, he would be considered an equal to the late Jimi Hendrix.
His birth name is Riley King, but changed his name to Blues Boy.
Greatest guitarists of all time (in no particular order)
Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Slash, Zakk Wylde, Tony Iommi, Eric Clapton, Randy Rhoads and ummm....Jesus

hair metal 

The greatest form of "hard" rock in existance. Mostly dead now, thanks to the uprise of lackadaisical bands and talent lacking "musicians". Grunge and Punk replace Hair/glam metal in the rock wars. Great.
Despite its suggestive and oftimes offensive lyrics, the msical talent was second to none. Insane guitar work and vocals were hallmarks of the genre. Whenever i say i like metal, i need to add the tag "Hair" just to ensure that i am not a satanic headbanger (i am just the wild kind).
A tasteless telivision network that is in fact the reason for many of the problems of Afro-American society. It supports stereotypical views of us blacks, instill bad grammar and sloppy dress.
It also causes many of my unghetto ghetto dwelling peers and myself to get many frustrating questions
BET is the antithesis of the African Diaspora and negates and nullifies everything our ancestors were
