I disagree, reggae is more than just that

What Im saying is that reggae is a Jamaican interpretation of Soul music which is why so much early Reggae is Soul music covers whereas Dancehall is more it's own thing musically w/ influences from Afram verbal traditions but not musical traditions.

@Poitier is right they do act like we are lying.

Look at this lame cornball ass character @TheRealfG trying to instigate beef when AAs on this thread are now trying to be a peace and even cosigning trolls like @Cake,:mjlol:

Yeah lets compare a population of 40 million+ to a population of just 1 million when it comes to income. :deadmanny:

The afram verbal tradition that gave birth to jamaican toasting which then lead to dancehall "deejay" style

Just finishing up with work and I see the fukkery hasn't stopped lol. Again, I'm all for productive discourse, but let's chill with all the disrespect and name calling. You don't see me coming at ya'll sideways so you can miss me with the africans were talking slick in 2012 mess.

but back to your point.. Hip hop was more or less invented/founded by DJ Kool Herc. DJ Kool Herc was born in Jamaica and is not an African-American per the definition used in this thread. So in essence, hip hop was invented by a Jamaican. Do you agree with this or no? If not, why?
Who told you this?

I'm wondering do people even read some post on here because @IllmaticDelta has been proving this isn't true for at least a couple of years, yet people keep saying the same thing! I feel like I'm in bizzaro land.

BTW, Kool Herc invented using breakbeats has his style, that is it. It's still a big contribution, but you don't ignore everyone else who came before him. And you don't say because he came form Jamaica that means hip hop came from Jamaica. He was a kid in Jamaica, so he couldn't get into the jams.

I hate repeating this because it sounds like I'm beefing with Jamaicans, but I don't understand why people don't except the truth by now. Are people that weak minded that they need to except a lie, instead of the truth, to feel good about themselves?:jbhmm:

You're insinuating that reggae is just Jamaicans covering American soul music

No, not just. But do some research into the history of ska, the incredibly strong influence of the Motown style, for example, is very clear.

The musical styles of the homeland and the diaspora are all intertwined and interrelated :blessed:
