Yep, there are just as many similarities between traditional African music and blues as there are between European music and blues. The point was that even that was a blend. And let's not even get started on all of the different kinds of blues, which incorporate all types of musical influences from other cultures as well. I just don't get the impulse to try to make a cultural institution 'racially pure.' Everything is mixed.
While we're at it, why not form all kinds of other irrelevant divisions? Rock and roll was invented by men, so it's a male form of music, not a female form of music. Rock and roll was invented by a prior generation, not the younger or current generations, so rock and roll is for old people, not young people. How tall were its progenitors? If tall, then it's tall people music, not short people music. If short, then vice versa.
Oh, and 'hispanic' people stole 'white' people's language, religion, and, well, TONS of aspects of European culture. They totally need to stop aping on that shit.
For that matter, black people stole english from white people as well. And the Japanese stole baseball and rock and roll from America. The Japanese also stole a lot of its letters/characters from the Chinese. Motherfuckers need to get their own languages. Oh, and fuck, people who speak english stole the basis of their language and its alphabet from Latin, so black people actually stole from the Romans. The Roman empire actually covered vast areas and incorporated countless cultures, but actually they just stole a little from everyone. They stole their gods from the Greeks!
And the rest of the world stole printing text from Europe. Printing is a white affair. Sorry guys. And the entire world needs to give irrigation back to the middle east.
And what's the deal with 'mulattos'? Stealing DNA from two races, eh?
