The most ridiculous thing I've ever read. :roll eyes: So what exactly do you want ... a thank you? It's cute how you left out the fact that black people were literally dragged to the Americas against their will. And yet they still ended up creating literally EVERY SINGLE GENRE you listen to on the radio (Rap, R&B, Disco, Blues, Rock n Roll, Jazz, Gospel etc. The list goes on and on. Don't act dumb like you don't understand the point! The foundation of these genres were founded and originally influenced by black people, but that almost always gets ignored because of white people who control the media can come along recreate the music and pass it off. Meanwhile it was Black people that taught the world how to sing, dance, and play music. All we are saying is have some damn respect and pay homage to the originators.
P.S. when I talk about Black people, I'm talking about Black people all over the world. African Americans, Afro Caribbean, mainland Africans, and Afro Latinos. Afro Latinos are also forgotten about. But when you turn on the Spanish radio station the first genres you hear are Reggaeton, Bachata, Salsa, Cumbia etc. All these genres wouldn't be possible without the African population.
