White artists have made millions of dollars off music they stole from black artists. I don't blame all the white artists.

Hey, hasn't anyone heard of Muddy Waters?
I'm from England, and like every other great empire who stole bits of the world, there is a price to pay. And I was born in 1935. So, since I've been conscious of the world, I've either been in, or been on the periphery of, a war zone.
