As a nation, Jamaica is the most influential music nation outside of the USA

This is the exact formula for the AA. The people the term was meant for
That wasnt meant for any black person born in Alabama to Brazil

Exactly. Dude knows that. He's just being hard headed

There is a reason why the Cuban bandleader called his band the Afro-Cubans instead of the AfroAmericans or AfroAmerican Cubans

the thing is, the africans that were eventually brought to jamaica developed a seperate jamaican culture and became jamaicans. Same thing applies with blacks brought to the americas. We have our own culture and thus ethnicity. AA is an ethnicity and was created to give american descendants a title to standby.

Everywhere Africans were taken, they assimilated culture. But there is still that African culture that they combine with their local slave masters culture, and that African Culture is consistent no matter where the African was taken. We all have similar customs and traditions even tho we assimilated different European cultures.

Jamaicans do have a unique culture to Jamaica, but they are still part of the greater whole.

New Orleans blacks have a culture different from Atlanta blacks. But they are all still related and have similarities in HOW they assimilated culture.

Your in no place to tell me what I know. Especially when you show how little you know in that same comment. Machito was definitely a African in the Americas.

All new world blacks are technically, modified, racially and/or culturally, old world africans.




Nah. It's because they are no longer, old world africans.

We are no longer old world Africans. Jamiacans are not. Cubans are not. We are now something different. As a whole. We are Africans in the Americas. With our own culture, that is different in small variations in different locations. But overall, the same assimilation happen everywhere

Whether they hid vodou in the saints of the Catholic Church
Or they caught the Holy Ghost in south.
The customs of Africans are not different in these places, how they are applied is

none of this discounts what i said. Point is, jamaicans and AA's are a different culture,in essence,a different people

Blacks from atl and new orleans have a shared AA culture/experience because they both stem from the same southern rooted tree here in America. Same thing with me, im born and raised in new york city but i still share culture w/ blacks/aa around the country. @IllmaticDelta already mentioned this earlier

No they are not. It does discredit what you said. Because Africans in the Americas are not AFRICANS. They are African American and they are all part of a larger whole. INCLUDING JAMAICANS.

You keep stopping in America. THE BOATS DIDNT. LMAO. We are all part of the AFRICAN AMERICAN Rooted tree. Here in this hemisphere. We are all brothers. I used The United States (lol)as an example, because it's a simplified version of the connection
