no worries, i could probably save myself by giving him a heart attack by repeating the simple fact that ROCK WAS A SUBGENRE OF R&B AND NEVER WOULD HAVE BEEN SEPERATED FROM R&B IF IT WASN'T COMMERCIALIZED TO APPEAL TO THE WHITE AUDIENCE |

And he'll counter by repeating the simple fact that slow jams are a subgenre of chronic diarrhea

To be honest I still haven't heard much Saadiq. Should I give Instant Vintage a try?

Who fucking cares about authenticity? That bit doesn't hold weight at all. Yeah, well, noise music these days must not be authentic. "I don't see how you can all anything post-1920's Italian Futurist noise manifesto authentic."

rock was and is an amalgasm of blues, country, hillbilly music, gospel, soul, etc., not what came to be called R&B.

nothing came to be called R&B, that term is older than rock&roll and older than the term soul. R&B is a mix of all the african american genres at the time. gospel,blues and jazz. Rock 'n Roll is the same thing with the addition of bluegrass/country, soul is the same thing with a different name because kids didn't want to admit they listen to the same genre as their parents. The term R&B was a replacement for "race music" which came to be considered an offensive term for black styles, and was applied to all black genres including rock and roll don't take it from me, chuck berry is much more of an authority I got a rockin' pneumonia I need a shot of rhythm and blues |

That's interesting. So where did something like Rockabilly fall within all of that? |

good question, i can't even tell the difference between normal rnr and rockabilly, all i know is the name is a mix of rock and hillbilly and that it's known as the first style of rock that was mostly played by white people. so i'd guess it's just rock with country/bluegrass influence more to forefront, i can't really hear the difference but i'd imagine it was probably clear to people back then
having heard the mix so many times it seems natural. But back in the days country music wasn't supposed to include any percussion, so having a percussionist playing black style rhythms under country guitars must have sounded absolutely insane to the people at the time |
