Maybe a poor analagy I dont know but the principle is quite simple . People are free to choose whatever format they want I,m not judging them . Part of the OVO thing for me is that link with an era , who,s hands has that disc passed through before it got to my box / ears, was the artist trolling round Detriot with copies of it in the boot of his car trying to get exposure ? . this albeit a bit of a nieve view to some is how I feel about the subject , its so much more than just the music its history .

Difinitive answer , you can stare all day at a print of the Mona Lisa it will register the same visual message in your brain as the original would but............. it lacks provenance , history and a tangible link to the artist in short it lacks soul . Well thats my view anyway . edit typo corrected

I will probably get lambasted and strung up for this . Working of an assumption that soul music is a reflection of the black experience and all that embodies then if a white artist sings soul surely its an imitation of that style .
