Rolling Stone Magazine
Co-Founder Jann Wenner Is A Racist And Sexist Who
Slammed Black People And Women As Inarticulate
September 19. 2023
Jann Wenner
Racist and sexist Rolling Stone
magazine co-founder, Jann Wenner, recently showed
his true colors in vile statements he made about
black people and women. Wenner stated to the New
York Times that his new book did not contain any
interviews with black people or women, as we are not
articulate.
Wenner, thinks he is the authority
on music when he has no musical talent or formal
understanding thereof. As a black woman who has
written and copyrighted more songs than any
individual, and one who has a 5-octave voice, is
multi-instrumentalist and has a 160 IQ, I think
Wenner is full of it.
I know music. I would run circles
around Wenner in discussing and analyzing every
genre and artist. Therefore, I can state with
authority there are many black people and women who
are musically gifted and articulate. Wenner is foul
and out of order to have made such nasty, racist and
sexist statements. However, it shows you who he
truly is as a person.
Wenner co-founded the aforementioned
magazine as well as the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame.
For years I have tweeted at their page on Twitter,
now known as X, as I found they had admitted
numerous people of many races, backgrounds and
nationalities. I never viewed them as racist. Not
for one minute. I saw the whole thing as fun. Only
for it to come out now in the mainstream that there
has been a conflict in the background with Wenner
repeatedly snubbing and fighting against the
induction of black people and women. This is
disgraceful of Wenner. The Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame
committee has announced Wenner has been removed from
the organization.
One of the top musicians in history
is African-American Sam Cooke. He was a smart,
articulate black man who wrote intelligent songs.
Cooke's intellect was present in his lyrics and
interviews. Yet Wenner, who is not a singer,
songwriter, producer or musicologist, and couldn't
hold a candle to Cooke, is of the belief he isn't
articulate or worthy as a black man. How do you
figure that. This is pure arrogance and racism. As
time progresses people will continue to remember Sam
Cooke. When the name Jann Wenner is brought up the
overwhelming majority of the global population will
go "who?"
Honestly, when I heard the name Jann,
I remembered him vaguely but couldn't place it
(which says a lot considering how much I know about
music), but I was more thinking Jan Hammer who made
that awesome "Miami Vice" soundtrack (LOL). Only to
find out it is Jann Wenner, the co-founder of
Rolling Stone, to which I shrugged, because really,
who cares about his opinion on music. However, I
took the opportunity to write about Wenner's
behavior because it illustrates the horrible mindset
of many in Hollywood. They pretend to be tolerant
and liberal, but they are as racist and sexist as
one can get.
There are other legendary black
artists who have passed away that were talented and
articulate, such as Aretha Franklin, Whitney
Houston, Tina Turner, Teddy Pendergrass, Curtis
Mayfield, Marvin Gay, Prince and Luther Vandross,
among others. It was great to listen to them speak
about current events and pop culture. I still play
some of their interviews back.
I remember Luther Vandross was on
television showing his new home in New Jersey after
a California earthquake made him flee Los Angeles.
Luther's dining room had cashmere walls in a lovely
neutral tone. Luther was just as refined as you'd
want to be. He spoke eloquently in his interviews
about music and current events. Vandross was so
musically brilliant that other artists, such as the
legend Davie Bowie, deferred to him in the studio,
even when he was doing background vocals in the
early stages of his career. He was a man that truly
understood the music...and better than Wenner ever
will.
Living legends such as Diana Ross,
Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan, Otis Blackwell, Berry
Gordy and Smokey Robinson, among many others, have
for decades illustrated they are intelligent
African-Americans who know music and in ways Wenner
never will. He has no musical ability and is a
critic. Wenner is not even on Clive Davis' level,
where a non-performer and non-writer has a great ear
for music. I don't agree with Clive on many things
in the industry, but give credit where credit is
due, the man knows music.
There are many articulate women who
have been snubbed via Wenner's comments. As stated
above there is Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston,
Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight and Chaka
Khan. In addition to the aforementioned, there is
Barbra Streisand, Joni Mitchell, Annie Lennox, Cher,
Stevie Nicks, Carole King, Carole Bayer Sager,
Gloria Estefan, Sheryl Crow and Shakira, among
others.
For years I have repeatedly posted my
suggestions for the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, as do
many other people on Twitter. A few of my suggested
musicians have been inducted. I had suggested Jimmy
Buffett in 2019, but he passed away this month
before this could happen.
I've repeatedly stated on this site
that Hollywood is a cesspit of thievery, racism,
sexism, rape and pedophilia. I've also stated in
past articles that Jewish people in Hollywood, such
as Wenner, have been treating black people very
badly for decades (The Brutal Murder Of Singer Sam

Communities In Hollywood (Video) and

Treatment Of Black People). Wenner actively fought against
black people's progress in entertainment. That is
despicable.
Many Jewish people in Hollywood have
exhibited a terrible racism and hatred towards black
people, which has manifested in hateful and
oppressive conduct, which includes racial slurs,
theft of intellectual property and royalties, sexual
assault, rape and in some cases commissioned murder.
However, if you publicly say
anything about what is going on, some in Hollywood
will smear you as anti-Semitic for being a victim of
crime, who speaks out about the abusive and
dangerous conduct transpiring against you. That is
reverse psychology and it is being used in a sick
manner against people who have been horribly abused.
Some Jewish people in Hollywood (and
I can name hundreds and detail their criminal
behavior) seem to forget the horrible human rights
abuses their ancestors went through at Hitler's
hands, and inexplicably now have no qualms about
unleashing dreadful abuse on other minorities in the
industry. Many Jewish people in Hollywood are making
racist slurs and engaging in criminal behavior
against black people, openly showing how much they
hate us everyday. it is bewildering. We've done
nothing to you. This is all unprovoked and very
hateful.
I'm not an anti-Semite nor am I
against Israel (or Palestine for that matter, as I
want everyone to prosper). However, I will not keep
silent about the abuses against us as black people.
I don't believe anyone should be abused. I love all
the races and ethnic backgrounds. This is why I
can't understand the type of awful behavior coming
out of Hollywood. You, as an industry, need to take
a look in the mirror at yourselves regarding your
sick behavior and stop it.

Jann Wenner Apologizes for Saying Black and
Female Musicians Aren’t “Articulate” Enough for His
New Book
September 16, 2023 3:39pm - The
apology comes a few hours after the Rock & Roll Hall
of Fame Foundation removed the Rolling Stone
co-founder from its board over the comments he made
while promoting his new book. Rolling Stone
co-founder Jann Wenner has issued an apology
following controversial comments he made about Black
and female musicians being not “articulate” enough
to be included in his new book.
The apology came Saturday night, a
few hours after the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
Foundation announced he was being removed from his
position on the board of directors. In an interview
with The New York Times — which was published online
Friday, to promote his new book, The Masters —
Wenner said he didn’t include interviews with Black
and female musicians in his book because they aren’t
“articulate” enough. On Saturday, he said he
apologized “wholeheartedly” for his comments.
“In my interview with The New York
Times, I made comments that diminished the
contributions, genius, and impact of Black and women
artists and I apologize wholeheartedly for those
remarks,” he said in a statement given to The
Hollywood Reporter. “The Masters is a collection of
interviews I’ve done over the years that seemed to
me to best represent an idea of rock ‘n’ roll’s
impact on my world; they were not meant to represent
the whole of music and it’s diverse and important
originators but to reflect the high points of my
career and interviews I felt illustrated the breadth
and experience in that career. They don’t reflect my
appreciation and admiration for myriad totemic,
world-changing artists whose music and ideas I
revere and will celebrate and promote as long as I
live. I totally understand the inflammatory nature
of badly chosen words and deeply apologize and
accept the consequences.”...
