Why has hiphop and rap become black music?

[Distant1]

Why don't we like classical music or country music? Are people fundamentally different in their taste for life?

 

[Sloane Ranger]

The pioneers of rap, hiphop and country music were black. But the latter has become very whitewashed.

 

[kickz]

Country music is hot garbage

 

[Fratello]

You can like classic music if you want we don’t all have to like the same thing

 

[Alluring]

Who is "we"? Everyone has their own tastes. Black people created almost every genre of music including country.

Jazz, rock and roll, rap, r&b etc were all invented by talented black americans. I wouldn’t be surprised if country music has roots in black culture too. Aren’t they wonderful.

Hip Hop initially started off with the struggle and endearment and pushing through trials/tribulations. Nowadays it's about killing people and bragging about how some opp got killed. New age rap is extremely disrespectful and the fans encourage this shit. Rap Music is now the same themes recycled money, guns, sex, and murder. They sell this false image to young men of color that the only way to make it out of the hood is to make a name for yourself out of notoriety. Most young men who pursue rap music die tragically or become mature enough to realize that it isn't the right pathway.

I'm sure if a lot of Black people lived in Europe at the time of Bach or Vivaldi, they would make classical music more dope.

Music theory is based on rhythm. Black folks invented rhythm

I can confirm country music comes from African Americans. They deserve respect. Although haram they changed music around the world they are amazing people. They just need unity and family strength.
