You are really stupid. So because a bunch of White people buy watered down Rock and Roll music played by White Rock and Roll bands; in your dumb World that means that music is no longer Black?
I just realized something; you are not an American. You have to be an African because I had a similarly dumb conversation with a Nigerian on a message board one time. That idiot tried to convince me that Black people in America had never created anything. After I presented him with proof of the music in the USA and other inventions that African Americans had made; the dumb ass hated me even more.
You need stop while you are behind, because Black people also created Country music and we don't have top sellers. Black people created Jazz and we probably don't have any top sellers. On and on, but the music is Black music.

Well, I think that in USA Reggae became CAC music just like here in Brazil. I mean a few years ago Reggae became the sensation and lots of cacs went on that Bob Marley fanboy style. I even had to listen some cacs saying "BUT BOB MARLEY WAS MIXED, HE HAD WHITE BLOOD TOO" type of bullshyt.
For an example, here's a kinda famous Reggae duo from the place where I live here:
I went to a show of these dudes a time ago and the place was
Ok, It's no shocking news that this happened to Reggae, there's SOJA and all those folks from a while.but now I'm seeing this pattern really happening to Hip Hop too (since Eminem we gotta admit it kinda happening). It became a fashion amongst mid to upper classes here (cac in general) and we got a lot of "new sensations" in HipHop here. That a look:
And this dude is/was the sensation in Rap. Dude is some rich guy who sings about gangsta shyt lmao:
Bonus: He with Kanye and some random guy lmao:
Anyway. The OG's at brazilian rap, Racionais MC's said in recent interviews that things are out of hand and rap became a rich whitebois thing
Racionais mcs, OG brazilian hip hop group:
Is this whole thing hitting hard in USA too? I dunno if it would apply to Europe since there's cacland.

Seriously I don't like to get into it with the mentally disabled, but you are making me make an exception. Who the fukk appropriates Mariachi music? Who is appropriating Ethiopian folk music?
Rock and Roll and Pop music are lumped together in most cases; but fwiw White people version of Rock and Roll doesn't appeal to Black people. Hell White people version of Rock and Roll doesn't even appeal to White people, which is why young White people follow Rap and Hip Hop.
Seriously, you can't be this dumb.

Sounds like cac trickery to me

yall keep playing kumbaya with the biracials, the mexicans, the afrticans; then y'all wonder why these other groups still look at us different. when will yall get it. AAs (descendant of slavery in the US) are all we have, no one else.

Uhhh NO
The.predominant artists in CONTEMPORARY REGGAE.are still BLACK
MAVADO...POPCAAN...are just a few examples
those white artists you mentioned are only popular in hybrid markets and genres
And are still considered novelties
just like the SOUMDSYSTEMS whixh are the HEARTBEAT of reggae
although we got german sounds and japenese sounds like MIGHTY CROWN
for the most part BLACK OWNED SOUNDSYSTEMS with BLACK SELRCTORS still dominate worldwide
the closest Reggae came to having a "EMINEM" was the German deejay GENTLEMAN
but as you can see his status wasnt globally stellar
and Snow never reached the heights that one can assume
no no no ..no IGGY AZALEA fukkery gwan here
and thats because REGGAE is STILL THE VOICE.OF THE UNDERCLASS AND THE ANTI ESTABLISHMENT
consciousness is still respected in REGGAE
UNLIKE RAP MUSIC WHICH HAS SOLD ITS SOUL
and only gets turned up for a CHECK
Pay attention to the bold
