Or dancehall - it rarely works if the person singing is from anywhere other than the WIndies. But that's not necessarily about it being 'black'. I have a mate who's black, he can't dance for shit and he's too nice to get a girlfriend, and that's because he's from a particular background.

ALSO there are more races than Black/ Japan

So my smart-arse cunt answer is 'there's no real 'race' to music'. Although I do own, and listen to, a Prussian Blue record.

I'm not surprised you din't notice I pointed that out already.
