@rinezhaoIogy @liam_7757 That’s not direct influence. That’s cultural retention. Again, we created what Africans didn’t nor could they fathom it. And Afrobeat didn’t really influence hip hops origins, but Black American music and styles are at the root of Afrobeat. No Afrobeat without a funk and jazz etc
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

See…What you’re saying is false. Fela and Afrobeat comes after James Browns and BA Soul/Funk. No Afrobeat without it. Here, Tony O Allen, Felas drummer, explains how bands across Africa emulated Black American rhythms and “grooves.” Especially James Brown….

@allaboutsoul15 @liam_7757 Correct if I’m wrong (srry 😭) but enslaved Africans still carried their culture & traditions to America, so those WA roots are gonna be present in the origins of BA genres like jazz, funk, hiphop, etc. But obviously BA made it into their own distinct culture, no denying that

@4kaliuchis @westphillybrown @thesecret12 The Chicano movement took no inspiration from Black Power movements? Yea right. And those same chicanos were being racist within their movement. Mexicans were considered white for a long time and they treated black people as such.

@westphillybrown @thesecret12 you’re obviously uneducated asf especially on stuff like the chicano movement, the US teaches more white and black history than latino/native history because simply whites like blacks better, latinos fought for their own rights and the civil rights movement was a group project

Why is there this expectation for black Americans to advocate for citizenship on behalf of people who who turn around and call us slurs. Don’t say because white peoeol are racist because they aren’t the only ones we experience it from.
i Report Racism & Child Crimes@SeeRacists

3 racist high school girls caught on video trashing and mocking a Black girl all because she told them to stop saying the N-word around her. The incident happened at Silverado High School in Victorville, California.

@pusha_thi @tsegedemashila @SLAYYY0NCE Nah, I’m saying identifying as “Black” gave them a completely new sense of pride and awareness in a ever growing “multi racial/we don’t see race Brazil” when that clearly wasn’t the case. Afro Brazilians were being targeted and they used BA movements and music to gain awareness
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

Black American Soul music and Black Power philosophies helped establish a proud Black Brazilian identity. It also helped tear down the myth of Brazil being a county of “Racial harmony,” and exposed Latin America to black political thought.

@allaboutsoul15 @tsegedemashila @SLAYYY0NCE That's such a misinterpretation of what actually happened 🤔 you're saying black Brazilians didn't know what they were until they heard an English word in the 70s when Portuguese colonizers were in Africa back in the 14th century and Brazil has 500 years of colonial history

Yes i do, actually. And again, we're not African Americans. ASAP Rocky is actually FBA. And why do you keep naming all of these non FBAs like that negates the fact that when NYC was at its peak it was because of FBAs like: Jay Z 50 Cent Nas Dipset DMX LL Wu Tang Mob Deep Kiss

@_StillTheShawn When you fill out a job application you don’t say your FBA. Busta rhymes, Nicki Minaj, French Montana, Joey badass, asap rocky, Bobby shmurda are not Black Americans.

@pusha_thi @tsegedemashila @SLAYYY0NCE BAs had been using it. One of the first usages “Black Power” is 1919. The usage of “Black” in Brazil, was revolutionary and based on the Black Power movement and the music that followed and created a whole different idea of identity. “Black” clearly meant something other.
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

Afro Brazilian culture had been co opted by the dominate (white) society. Afro Brazilians gained a sense of identity through these Soul parties but the Brazilians government started to infiltrate them due to fear of unrest and US influence. Even leftist saw Soul as a threat.

@allaboutsoul15 @tsegedemashila @SLAYYY0NCE That's an insane idea. The use of the term BLACK started in the 70's because it's a english word lol but it's meaning is the same meaning as the Portuguese word PRETO and samba artistas been talking about being pretos before the first jazz or soul song was ever produced

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe When you go home and change accents and switch up based on which group you are with, nah. Like Herc hid his accent for years, there’s a reason KRS one is of the first rappers to use patois on record, in the late 80s damn near 20 years after Hip hop started. Why? BA dominance.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe influence, because of his emulation of BA culture specifically. based off our music. Always. You should care about the largest Dancehall female artist but you don’t. And Big was emulating BA music as well. Not “Caribbeans.” He used like 8 JA words lol. All BA swag and verbiage.
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

This is false. I don’t know where you got he information from. Link the songs with that flow of JA artist cadence you’re talking about. JA artist got toasting from BAs. And Biggies cadence comes from Black American jazz and Bebop drumming….from his doc…

@allaboutsoul15 @DonOneThe You just want to belittle his influence because he’s not Black American. He is of Caribbean consent just like the most successful female rapper in Hip-Hop. One of the biggest rappers of the 90s And the biggest black female artist in the world.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe Switch that, Black American music/rhythms pioneered and facilitated toasting, and Soundsystem culture in JA, and are at the root of JA music and culture. A Jamaican that assimilated to BA culture and didn’t add any JA cultural aspects joined in with originators, BAs in hip hop.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe Also, Kane is a legend when it comes to 80s hip hop lyricism and style, Black American legend, but historically, he was like 5 or 6 in 1973. When he’s claiming where the “origins” but you wouldn’t know that.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe It was already a culture. Herc didn’t invent hip hop, as he says here. “Really 70.” But you going by Kane saying 73. When Herc doesn’t even accept that. lol Even so, all hip hops elements are Black American. Nothing to do with Jamaican music culture at all. Even hid his accent.
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

@IsedLoveTho Nah. It’s roots are in BA culture. Especially the rapping. And it’s cadence/swagger. “African” includes white Africans, Arabs, Afrikaans, etc. nah. Also, Hip Hop music and culturebefore 73….as Herc said…more in the late 60s from BA culture. It’s Soul.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe The break beat is a Black American cultural and musical sound/style they occurred in our music, breaks/jumps were already here and being used, which is what taught Herc. Post the early reggae records with Breakbeats. lol exactly. The early sound of Hip hop is Funk.

Dr. CZ@AngelMD1103·
This went from chill beach vibes… to straight confrontation. She’s been keeping her surfboards in the same spot for five years, no issues, no problems, just routine. Then, one day, she sees two men loading them up like they own them. She walks up, points to the exact place they’ve always been, and calls them out; calm at first… but you can feel the tension building fast. Because it’s not just about the boards. it’s about someone trying to take what’s clearly not theirs… in broad daylight. When someone tests your boundaries like that, staying calm takes serious control, but it can flip in seconds. Would you confront them directly like she did… or call for help and stay back? What would YOU do in that moment?
Dr. CZ@AngelMD1103

She’s just at the beach, bikini on, book in hand, completely minding her own business. Peaceful. Quiet. Normal day. Then, out of nowhere… people start showing up. Dressed up. Cameras out. Turns out. it’s a full wedding happening right there. Now she’s suddenly in the background of someone’s once-in-a-lifetime photos… in a bikini. So she quietly lies down, covers herself up, trying to disappear like she was never there. No drama. No complaints. Just… respecting the moment. That kind of self-awareness? She didn’t have to do that, but she did. Would you have moved, covered up, or just stayed where you were? Who do you think had the right to that space?

@pusha_thi @tsegedemashila @SLAYYY0NCE Not really a comparable cultural exchange. Black Brazilians started calling themselves “Black” because of the music they were hearing from BAs. BA music created an entire movement in Brazil amongst Afro Brazilians, there really wasn’t an equivalent cultural influence amongst BAs
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

All around Brazil, these parties would host well over a million people each weekend. Afro Brazilian youth saw Soul as an authentic expression of Blackness. James Brown was somewhat of a deity. Afro Brazilians also adopted the identity of “being black.” Emulating Black Americans.

@tsegedemashila @allaboutsoul15 @SLAYYY0NCE Lots of American music is artists that travel the world and bring in different references back home to mix with their own. And that's just normal artistic production in a globalized world, this idea that countries take more from the US than the contrary is just exceptionalism

@tsegedemashila @pusha_thi @SLAYYY0NCE lol there’s no comparison when it comes to cultural influence. Brazilians were utilizing aspects of BA slang and even decided to start calling themselves “Black”(In English) because of the Black American influence. The Afro is literally called “Black Power Haircut” in Brazil man.

Pardoned Jan. 6 rioter David Paul Daniel will plead guilty to sexually exploiting a child under 12 forcing her into explicit sex acts to produce child p*rn images. He also coerced a second minor under 18 for the same purpose. Abuse happened in 2015-2016. Evidence found on his devices during the FBI search tied to his Jan. 6 Capitol assault case. Trump pardoned him for assaulting law enforcement officers. Federal judge ruled the pardon does NOT cover these child exploitation charges. How many more child predators were pardoned?

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe But you said I was trying to claim ownership of those genres by saying Black American music culture directly influenced them. But you snuck in herc at the end of your OP to act as if Hip Hop comes from JA culture and stated rap was influenced influenced by Jamaicans(toasting)
Ryli@liam_7757

@allaboutsoul15 Trying to claim ownership over these genres is desperate. Afrobeats is distinctly Nigerian and Dancehall is distinctly Jamaican. No listens to those genres and thinks “black American”

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe He’s not adding, or utilizing anything from JA at the origins of hip hop then you can’t claim JA culture has any bearing on the creation of hip hop. He joined doing graffiti, before his party. You said Jamaicans influenced rap and then found out JAs got the idea toast by BAs.
SOULBLACK@BlackPowerBA

@HaxForFood @ZSickmind @mamuragen1 @TAZUTRA @FBASoulja1 This isn’t true, and def wasn’t true at the origins of Hip Hop. All rooted in Black American culture. Y’all keep leaving out Coke La Rock, Flowers, Pete Jones and Mario. And y’all keep showing that flyer, which has been recently debunked. Herc even says it really “began” in 70

Ryli@liam_7757

@allaboutsoul15 @DonOneThe You can say Jive music influenced U Roy who pioneered toasting which influenced rap if you likes but no matter how much dodging you do the fact remains. Toasting and Jamaican sound system culture had direct heavy influence on rap.

@liam_7757 @DonOneThe Nah, Hip hop was already a culture and was already a thing, he helped boost some of its parties later. He was doing graffiti first (hip hop) before he started Djying.
