YOu guys seriously don't understand how hard it is to be a black musician today. Cutting through the white privilege and systemic racism is very tough and the reason that it is so easy for whites to get record deals and blacks are discriminated against.
6th track in their first album is literally reggae
Obvious bait but they literally have dominated an entire genre so no, it can't be that hard
Shit bait, try again

>name a good black musician in a white dominated genre
What point are you even trying to make here

Dem boys from tv on the radio
Sufjan Stevens
Brittany Howard from Alabama Shakes is fantastic
>An entire Genre
Bro outside of liek Country and Kpop I can't think of one that wasn't crushed by black people. And Country is just if you don't count Lil Nas X.

You know they call it black metal for a different reason, right?

Seriously though, why have African Americans given up playing instruments for "making beats" and nursery rhyme lyricism about drugs and getting your dick sucked?
Phil Lynott the GOAT
I really hate it. Occasionally you'll see a black dude on drums or bass, or maybe an older brotha on sax or something, but the vast majority of blacks in music are doing absolutely bottom of the barrel nigger shit. And it's totally possible to make quality nig music, take Outkast for example. But most of it is just embarrassingly low effort trash. And don't give me this shit about "a DAW has a learning curve just like an instrument!" Absolute bullshit. I learned how to use ProTools in a couple of months and have engineered on 3 albums, it's literally 1/1000 of the time and effort that it takes to learn an instrument well enough that people would actually choose to listen to you without having to fake politeness.
Legacy of Jim Crow/Slavery/Colonialism will do that to you

>hip-hop, jazz, soul r&b, funk reggae or blues
Those are all black dominated genres what's the problem with black people being good at them? They have to be good at everything for you to respect them as a race?
Any way since you wanna pretend to be racist on the internet for replies here are some names
>Billy Cobham- drums in Mahavishnu Orchestra
>Thomas Pridgen- drums in Mars Volta
>George Duke- vocals/keyboards for Frank Zappa
He played R&B you retard
Fuck off

naw but tom morello actually is
i truly hope, as a white man, that i can benefit from white privilege and systematic racism because i want to succeed as a musician and i don't give a fuck about anyone else especially niggers
A myriad of Jamaican ska artists (ska came before reggae, before you whine like a little faggot) like early Bob Marley, house and techno producers like Frankie Knuckles, Derrick May, Jeff Mills, Mr. Fingers, Juan Atkins, and much, much more, Bad Brains, etc. Oh, and let's not forget about Afro-Latin music, like Ibrahim Fererr, highlife artists like Fela Kuti, drum and bass artists like Goldie, etc.
To be fair, his father is from Southern Mexico (the only place with Afro-Mexicans that weren't absorbed by mestizos), he has practically afro-textured hair, and he looks like the (also half Jewish) Bob Marley.
All that work or such shitty bait.
>name a single actually good black musician that doesn’t do the music that 90% of black musicians gravitate to in the first place
Name a white person
I'll wait.
yeah, like can anyone name a good white reggae artist?

Is your IQ below 80?
Literally jimi hendrix played psychedelic rock tho
Kele from bloc party is pretty good
Because it sells. People like conforming to stereotypes just as much as they like stereotypes being true.
I'm not Black, so no.
Ace of Base's Euro-reggae is the only white reggae that I can enjoy without cringing.
Jimi Hendrix
I'm not gonna swing on Jimi's nuts too hard here, but Jimi is one of the founding fathers of psych rock (RIP Roky), probably the greatest reason for its continued existence in the cultural zeitgeist, and certainly one of the most expressive instrumentalists in any genre since the advent of recorded music. I'm assuming that's because he was more creole then your standard Mutumbo type, no pure blooded African could ever understand the subtleties of the 12 tone even-tempered scale.
