Daryl Hall Says He ‘Never Understood’ Yacht Rock, Calls the Pseudo Genre a ‘Joke’

Daryl Hall isDistanceing himself from yacht rock, a genre he once associated with, after realizing it was more R&B than he expected. He believes his association with it stems from broader labels trying to categorize him, rather than any genuine connection. Meanwhile, a documentary about the genre, *Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary*, acknowledges its deeper value despite initial criticisms, showing how it's become a rich part of music history over time.
