Even with Kool Herc there’s a lot of shyt people don’t know about. Actually, y’all (y’all as in ppl who still think Hip Hop and Rap music are somehow Jamaican in origin) should all know about that by now since there’s been countless threads started by @IllmaticDelta and @Diasporan Royalty dropping etherous material that even I didn’t know.
They’ll most likely share the links to this thread and just call it a day. Because honestly, most of y’all should know better by now

We may have discussed this in The Root but I was thinking about much different AADOS singers sound compared to
other Black folks around the world.
You'll find a few from the UK that can blow like that but they've modeled their style after ours.

Kinda bit? Everything that came out of the british invasion was based on the foundation in Afram music. In fact, there is no british popular music w/o afram music.

not even in the same league as aframs when it comes to musical invention-originality/influence. In fact, Jamaicans are the most afram influenced, musically (OG R&B begat Ska, Doo Wop/Soul begat Rocksteady-Reggae, Jive Of Jazz/Blues era begat Toasting->Deejay/Dancehall) of all other NEW World Black, groups. It goes like this
Range of Innovation/originality
1. Afram
2. Afro-Cubans
3. Afro-Brazilians
Historic Influence/level of Impact
1. Afram
2. Afro-Cubans
3. Jamaicans
4. Afro-Brazil

Aframs were the only new world blacks that used a melismatic/microtonal vocal approach because of their inherited Islamic influenced, mande/senegambian stock
Aframs do not fukk with Jamaican music like that. The only people that do are Jamaicans and the UK which has significant Jamaican influence. Outside of Marley, Sean Paul, maybe Buju Banton and Vybz, most aframs could not name any other Jamaican artist. Jamaican music or influence is pretty much non-existent in the Midwest.
Agree
