Вставка

- The literary world has lost a huge voice in the culture; author and hip-hop critic Greg Tate has passed away in New York City.
Tate, known for his work at “The Village Voice,” was able to provide a view that allowed readers to feel his perspective inside and out.
In 1992, he published his first book, “Flyboy in the buttermilk,” which was a collection of essays that would serve as what he called “a little something of a tool kit” for generations to come.
Duke University professor Dr. Mark Anthony Neal joins Marc Lamont Hill on “Black News Tonight” to talk about the life and legacy of Tate.
All this and more on “Black News Tonight.”

R.I.P. to my brilliant cousin.
just recently heard of Greg Tate when a friend hooked me up with What is Hip Hop. RIP
Oh wow damn I ALWAYS read anything and everything Greg Tate wrote in the Voice. Very very sad.
Rest In Power brother
Brother Tate once wrote an article about MILES DAVIS...somewhat unflattering. I approached him in the street. We spoke about it & he patiently listened to my point of view.
Thank you for the bio. I never heard of Mr. Tate but hearing you speak of him is enlightening and humbling.
Thanks
superb remembrance, bless up!!
(note, date of passing was Dec 7, 2021, here states Dec 6 in end title)
merci.
One of the many things he did and should not be overlooked is his involvement with Dance. Him and I ( with Butch Morris), started Dance Conduction which we later called Burnt Sugar Danz.. First piece we did as combined groups was RITES at Central Park Summer Stage in 2002. he also composed for several dance pieces and worked with choreographers such as SBB Birds, of Stefanie Batten Bland.and Francesca Harper ( artistic director of Ailey 2) and more. He truly was a giant and we in the dance world, and film world, also miss him dearly.

Give Thanks 2 Greg Tate
Great conversation. Thank you. Big up Greg!
This is such a huge loss.
Greg Tate has such an impact on me as Black man, Black fillmmaker. I'm sure i'm not alone in saying that he shaped how i appreciate and live Black Culture. Rest in Power my Brother!!!
Beyond this conversation of so-called black ideas in our culture. Genius, and I don't speak this lightly. The Rites: a take on Stravinsky with guitarist Peter Cosey. Formerly of the Miles Davis Band and Chess Records. Who also played with Muddy Waters, Billy Stewart, even Maurice White. Again, Genius. Our Creator's Peace with you, Gregory.
