Malcolm McLaren - his life, authenticity vs karaoke culture 

call6060842 i notices i. The video that he has trouble breathing at times during his lecture

wow that's amazing didn't realize it was that close

JRHartly1984 or maybe another bill morris

No - we must be the McLarens!!

Reporting for duty. These pop culture leaders didn't go far enough they worked though corporations. The truth about the two great wars and modernity is hard to handle. The nazis made big money, and the winners from that racket run the big businesses of today. The authentic is inevitable.

well he was a highly original thinker and put forth his individuality.

You never read the " Confessions of Malcolm McLaren" ?

For sure.Doon t be a sheep, think yourself what you wnat to do and how you want to live.

He was a heavy Smoker.

yes i would think the combination of cigarettes and being around clothing manufacturers would be the culprit

@@christopherdale8201 yes he even mentions going through a whole pack of French ciggies at Sandemans. Did that once and couldn't talk the following day!

I've read he was exposed by renovating his home shortly before he was diagnosed with mesothelioma. "A tumor of the tissue that lines the lungs, stomach, heart, and other organs. Cancerous (malignant) mesothelioma is the most common form, usually affecting the lungs."

Or the bloke that takes photos of the masses in the nude I forgot his last name it's Chester something.

No. We need whatever comes next. They're here. Support them.

Yeah, you've kind of missed the point. The point being: technical musicianship, expensive equipment, and experience was subordinate to youth, enthusiasm, and libido (energy plus sex). That was the magic formula that Malcolm recognised in Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, the early Beatles. That was what had become old, stale, and repetitive by 1975. Punk was about a burst of fresh, young, creative potential. It blew up, left a massive mark, and reverberated for a long time. However, the trappings of punk were quickly commodified and corporatised. For further info, I recommend you watch "bill drummond - the birth and death of punk", here on RU-vid.

You've already gotten an excellent response--I would also suggest McLaren's biography.

Vadim.

🤣🤣🤣 I'll use this Quote he used. 'It was my job to make sure none of us would ever return to normality'.

Trump beats him by a clear country mile.

@@coastwalker101 his ideas were far better than anything that Trump could come up with the man is a real buffoon,Trump should be hung up on Marble arch intelligence has died because of people like that. Malcolm McLaren was a real raw form of intelligence.

Did you bother to listen to what he said or did you zone out on to your iPhone/ computer.

He hasn't always ...he's dying of Mesothelioma here...It's around twelve months from the first symptom where you die...With that in mind, the guy sounds great here!

Because you're not an artist

More like a very real and honest person and he didn't speak shit

Why consider his speech negative...? It is his vision and it is real cos he is the one delivering his own vision. And you have your own experience, and so on...

What utter shit you have spoken,this man had got it right,to me anyone born after 1990 is a moron and has little to no character and lacks real creativity and intelligence any wonder why the modern world is becoming more shithouse.

Read about him. He was a creative genius and a fuck up. He did revert a bit to type, here. But he was a great influence on music and art.
