Black music

Black music is music that is made by black people and dominated by blacks. You have jazz, blues, ragtime, Motown (which was soul and r&b), disco and funk...and then you have rap and hip hop, black music's undoing....

Usually especially in the 1950s, whites would love the music, but hate the fact that it was by blacks...so they would respond by finding a white person to sing the music so they can feel okay liking the music.

That is why many blacks do not like Elvis, because he essentially took credit for music that wasn't his...

Modern day versions of this can be found through Eminem.

Sometimes, getting that white person in there can be the undoing of a music genre. Some say argue that rap and hip hop lost its meaning when many whites started buying it, something they didn't do until Eminem came along.

White people wanted music that degraded women, that was about sex, money, and other vile things....this meant that the original meaning hip hop had was no longer sought after...because people wanted big bucks and whites wanted vile rap music.

Black music existed before rock n roll (yes blacks did create rock n roll), in the form of jazz, blues, and ragtime...but even then, in order for it to go mainstream, a white person had to do it.

This still happens today...if the genre had absolutely no white singers, whites would not buy anything within that genre at all.

Michael Jackson sold millions only because his music was in a genre that also had whites in it.

In the end though, most whites can never bring to the black genre of music in the same way a black person can...it almost always lacks soul and depth.

Meanwhile, black music is deteiorating simply because young blacks of today are too busy catering to white peoples wants in mainstream music rather than trying to make actual good music. Lets face it, hip hop and rap along with genres like country and heavy metal (these two genres are white music) are some of the worst genres of music to have ever been made...I wouldn't even really classify any of it as music.
