IMO, it's all in the roots. Country is mostly white because it talks about the lives of cowboys and how it works in the farm. There are no really black cowboys and they are not a lot of black families who own their own farm. As for pop, I believe that the reason why most pop artist are white is the same as why most politicians are white. It seems people are... not necessarily racist, but... proud of their own race... That's kinda sad. I won't explain for all kinds of music but you get my point I guess...  -------------   RIP in bossa nova heaven. |

No, it's an honest question, and what I said is mostly true. Can you think of any famous Jazz musician who was not black? (People like Frank Zappa and Mahavishnu don't count; they're prog-rock with a heavy jazz influence) Can you think of any mainstream rock band that had a black person? I can only think of Hendrix for rock and nobody for Jazz; I'm not saying there aren't any, as race really doesn't matter, but I think it's weird that there is such a disparity. ------------- "Never forget that the human race with technology is like an alcoholic with a barrel of wine."

| There are loads of white Jazzers; masses of black Rockers. Several of both come to mind as I write. However, I won't demean myself (or them) by rising to your sad piss take. For a self proclaimed holy man, you certainly lack respect for others. |

This has nothing to do with respect! Also, if you'll notice, I said famous. Obviously there are people of all races in genres, but I mean famous. Like, really, really famous. Miles Davis, Zeppelin, and Cash famous.
And I didn't proclaim myself a holy man! What is wrong with you?
Bah, forget it.

I'm gonna help Ghandi here! Guys! You all misunderstood what he said. He just made a remark that there are more blacks in certain musical styles and more whites in certain others. It's not racist at all. He just thinks that's weird and would like to know why. Come on guys  ------------- RIP in bossa nova heaven. |
