Jazz began after cacs taught (creole) black people how to play piano and write music sheets. Does that undermine Jazz as a black American art form?

wtf are you talking about? That's not how Jazz was born:childplease:

You think the earliest black American DJs didn't listen to or have interaction with white DJs?

White Djs in the USA actually emulated and were taught "Jive Talk" (what Jamaicans copied and started calling "Toasting") By FBA djs:takedat:





Never claimed that Jamaicans invented DJing, dubbing, toasting, or sound system music production. And I DEFINITELY never claimed that these Jamaican immigrants were playing reggae for audiences and speaking in patois. The fact dude feels the need to take such personcal digs at Herc says a lot about how much of a self-important clown dude is.

As if "Black Americans" who had access to all this decades longer were sitting around looking at each other until Jamaicans came. These are the weird narratives yall have to make up and argue with yourselves over, and then think you're "dropping knowledge" then project onto others, in this bizarre crusade to claim Jamaica--one of the most musically innovative places in the world--was incapable of creating or influencing music in America.

Jamaica wasn't creating/innovating anything until they started absorbing FBA music, specifically Rhythm & Blues which gave birth to their first POPULAR style of music: SKA




The first ska recordings were created at facilities such as Federal Records, Studio One, and WIRL Records in Kingston, Jamaica with producers such as Dodd, Reid, Prince Buster, and Edward Seaga.[19] The ska sound coincided with the celebratory feelings surrounding Jamaica's independence from the UK in 1962; an event commemorated by songs such as Derrick Morgan's "Forward March" and the Skatalites' "Freedom Sound".

Until Jamaica ratified the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works, the country did not honor international music copyright protection. This created many cover songs and reinterpretations. One such cover was Millie Small's version of the R&B/shuffle tune, "My Boy Lollypop", first recorded in New York in 1956 by 14-year-old Barbie Gaye.[21][22] Small's rhythmically similar version, released in 1964, was Jamaica's first commercially successful international hit. With over seven million copies sold, it remains one of the best selling reggae/ska songs of all time.

.
Jazz was the biggest influence in jamaica until R&B came along. In fact, the Skatelites (the first superteam of music in jamaica) were Jazz musicians









Jazz was always the biggest source of inspiration for The Skatalites and the members covered songs that moved them, such as Roland’s take on Horace Silver’s “Forest Flowers” or his adaptation of Duke Ellington’s “Caravan” as “Skaravan.” Alphonso spoke of his joy at sharing the stage with Count Basie’s band in Nassau, and gave John Coltrane his utmost admiration. “Coltrane is my man, and I respect him and honour him because his songs is on earth.” Lester Sterling named Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Cannonball Adderley and Sonny Stitt as musicians he was thrilled to see performing.

They built a culture of THEIR OWN around DJing, sound system clash parties and productions, dancehall, toasting, dub recording and electronic music production. And what they were doing is not what was going on in Discos, and it led to Hip Hop when they brought it over. No amount of YouTube clips about Disco DJs from the 70s is going to change what THEY were doing at the time.

No, none of that Jamaican sh1t you mentioned had anything to do with HipHop. We've been through this already

Herc



^^BOTH said their influences were USAmerican Disco setups/djs

2) no one rocked with Jamaican culture like that in the 1970s








Maybe you should look into that and TRY simply appreciating a culture outside of your own without your childish insecurities getting in the way. I know its hard for a MAGA nicca. You might actually turn pro-black instead of a conservative and appreciate what another black culture was doing with music gear at the same time Disco Djs was spinning records in America. Caribbean DJ, dubbing, sound system clash culture and productions had an impact on the already sprawling NY Disco scene and it led to Hip Hop in the Bronx. fukkin get over it.

Again I don't have the same cac mindset as you morons.

Disco Djing culture came out of the RADIO DJ culture. The Black American radio DJ is who the Jamaican sound operators/toasters were trying to be like

While in the USA, within AFram culture, the Black radio dj would transition from the the 1930s/1940s/1950s style to the 1960s and 1970s Black DJ style and into Disco and then HipHop

Notice every single one of these tether and c00ns talking points got debunked in this very thread. They don’t like Tariq so gonna make up lies about the movie. Make up lies about our history.

Take notes which posters are on that bullshyt.

Same posters will argue against reparations for black Americans.

Agents, tethers, bed bucks and c00ns. There can be no other explanation.

And pannies

In the mind of dodo bird pannies like a @SupaDupaCool its ok to share undue and unearned credit, as long as the group getting it is some type of black.

They freely undermine black Americans thinking their status of “ pan African” gives them insurance coverage to do so

Getting black American culture right is not a priority for them. Maintaining status quo is
