You guys... Black music is a thing.

It sounds like you all need to be educated on it.

Go enroll at the Center for Black Music Research:

Maybe if you learn something, you can get published in the Black Music Research Journal:

Black people music wow... wow. It probably wasn't your intention but saying it like that makes you seem very ignorant and dismissive of the rich history and diversity in these mediums.

 

Hip-hop is a style of music (and other art forms), rapping is a style of lyric delivery (spoken or chanted rhythmic lyrics) commonly used in hip-hop music, and R&B is another style of music that takes influence from hip-hop, soul, funk and others.

 

With that said, I'm a big fan of contemporary hip-hop, especially when artists have distinctive lyric delivery -- I love Kanye's accent quirks and wordplay. I know a lot of people preach about the classics but it's never been my preference. In terms of R&B, Janelle Monae is one of my favourite artists -- she's got so much energy, it's incredible. Erykah Badu is really spectacular as well, her voice is so warm. 

 

I think writing off a whole genre or related genres is really silly because you limit yourself :)

I love old school soul and rnb from the 70s and 80s including disco, funk and artists like Donna Summer, Kool and the Gang, Earth Wind & Fire, Michael Jackson, the Pointer Sisters, Chic, etc...

Lol I do and this is very stereotypical 

[artRaver 3,188]

I hate black music. I hate black people, really. 

Oh.

[Tropico 4,145]

Okay I don't like the title. Maybe it was called that in the older days but how about you call it soul instead.

I am a black person and I do not like rnb, hip hop, rap AT ALL (with the exception of Gaga's songs). So. This very sterotypical

I prefer more pop sound.

[Michael 533]

I adore hip-hop and rap.

I really hope this is sarcasm!  

 

Personally I love a bit of rap and hip hop. My faves are probably Kanye, Eminem and Gym Class Heroes.

Sis :/

Oriental music is also a term, but one shouldn't go around saying it

[Jewels n Drugs 4,628]

I was referring to the OP saying "black music". I just don't think music should be labeled as being enjoyed by a certain racial group
