If Barack Is President..

Posted about 4 years ago

Will the underground film genre I've always dreamt of become a reality?If THE MAN is a black man, can "Whitespolitation" be far behind.I have posted on this topic before, but it was really only in the abstract. Recent events,though, have inspired, yet another mixtape. A compilation of classic Whitesploitation film music.Please see comments for the track listing.Follow the Whitesploitation link above for background on the genre and more tunes.

  4. Oatmeal says Easy to miss, but it is above the pic, they really need to change the default link color. Enjoy the premise Cody, but I have never heard of most of this music so I can't say I understand the concept. Perhaps the link illuminates...

  5. Cody B says Aaaw,you know Oat, just the typical fake soundtrack music from fake genre films. Or more simply put...blaxploitation-esque music made by white folks.

  7. Dzendvokh says You just love to do that ^^^^ don't you Cody...... ;-) speaking of xploitation flicks, I just finished Coffy...... man that's a wicked movie... kind of shocking in some respects, I guess I'm just not too familiar with the genre...

  8. Dzendvokh says I swear I hate not being able to edit these things.... what I meant by "that" was your list of samples....

  9. Oatmeal says Aw, I should have guessed that. You pressing copies??

  10. Spike says Cody, those are quite some lists of mysterious items you've got there. They look like they could set up a cool series of intriguing moods.

  11. Cody B says Sorry Nick..I know you hate to scroll. Oh yeah..Coffy is the Color! The payback scene in the beginning is pretty harsh. Spike: I tried to lay it out like a film, with some car chase numbers, some meeting at the bar numbers, exotic travel numbers, and love scene material.

  14. Dzendvokh says awww damn, my fingers killing me.... actually I was thinking of the "this is how we lynch" scene.... I'm gonna go with Stone Fox Chase for the "one of these things is doing its own thing" game..... just a guess

  15. A Zeus says Good stuff Maynard ;-)

  16. Cody B says A Zeus..I used to know a guy called A Zeus, but we called him Jesus. LGE: Oh yeah love scene material..my favorite. Barack is growing on me too. DZ- I'm gonna have to watch the movie again..I never having a problem seeing Pam. The odd song out is Rotary Connection, 'cause both singers are black..but I allowed it because of it's agressive whiteness or the so-called soulfolkbaroque exception.

  17. A Zeus says lol - but Jesus hardly captures the pronounciation, does it? Been a long time .

  18. Cody B says I guess it was the maynard that tipped me off..f'in' A. All right EXpoems- comin' in for the big win in SC..congrats.

  19. Bartleby says I beg your pardon, Cody. Aren't all movies white-xploitation already? Great soundtrack, now who should be playing the pneumatic and only female character?
    Permalink posted 01/28/2008
  20. jenny says David Axelrod...so great. What a fun mix. Wasn't the Average White Band really all white guys? But possibly since they didn't do any soundtracks (besides the unreleased soundtrack to my 7th grade), they don't count?
    Permalink posted 01/28/2008
  21. Cody B says jenny-I definitely think AWB would fit the profile of a possible whitesploitation soundtrack,perhaps Vol.2..Participation in "real soundtracks" is not a prerequisite. Bartleby..Good point. hmm, who would be the white Pam Grier..Francesca "Kitten" Natividad,Erica Gavin..

  22. poebegone says Cody, any compilation that requires large-scale brainage drives me crazy and the one you have up there is ace. very delighted to see Rotary Connection and Karel Krautgartner included. ps- our latest avatar is looking very fiery. ;D

  23. Jonh Ingham says Is David Axelrod banned or boosted due to being so heavily sampled by Dre and co? That Julie London 'Light My Fire' is really something - is there a track more white? It sounds like it should be in the original 'Thomas Crown Affair'.
    Permalink posted 01/29/2008
  24. Cody B says I think boosted, though it does go slightly against the imaginary mirror image world of Whitesploitation..but if you look at whitesploitation as a 70's phenomenon that created the DNA of hip hop à la blaxploitation, The Axe is the man..or something like that. I suppose I'll have to work this all out before submitting my Whitesploitation term paper:)
