Culture Speaks for itself

It surprises me how concerned musicians have suddenly became aware of cultural appropriation. It is a fact that music changed immensely once Africans were brought to the United States during the dark period in our history. We were  the center piece for the introduction of several popular genre's of music: RnB, Hip Hop, Rock n' Roll, Pop, Blues, Gospel, Techno, Reggae,and many more. SO it is true to think that our influences would have an impact on the music world today and on other cultures.
