Has Hiphop done more to harm the Black community than good?

[FG]

?
Maybe in your house you was listening to lames like elvis and the beetles but im pretty sure other black people born in the 60's was listening to James brown.

James Brown rose to fame in the late 50s and was big for quite some time through the 60s and 70s and even had hits thorugh the 80s.
But if you were born in the 60s, you were probably not out dancing (as you origianlly stated) in his hayday. Regardless of color. Newsflash, not only black people listened to James Brown. By the time most of the 60s peeeps got out dancing, there were bigger stars out.
btw, people are still dancing to James Brown.

Carter I was on your side till you went there kid. FG is in here early forties so that means she was a teenager around the mid to late eighties so she was probably more into Debarge Janet and Michael Jackson Chuck D a little Al B Sure, Ready for the world, Madonna people like that. James Brown is something my grandma or my parents would have listened to fam. That's why she said do the math. Smdh.
Epic fail

Both of you are wrong fam.

1.I never said only black people listen to james brown but black kids are more likely to have grown up with his music.

2.In the 70's mainstream James brown faded out but inner city areas like new york james browns music was being sampled and looped in a new genre called hip hop ,that kids born in the 50's and ..............60's
had made together .So yes people born in the 60's were listening , dancing and rhyming to james brown.

What hit 70s hip hop song had James brown in it. Sampling wasn't done that much till the 90s

The Beetles are one of the greatest bands, ever.

Yeah went with the stereo type sorry lol. What did you listen to?

 

[The Dark King]

That's debateable fam. Jackson Five was amazing. So was Queen and Journey. Beetles also didn't have much competition either

The man who created hip hop used james brown in the early 70's

as I call it, the energetic person, they're waiting just to release this energy when this break comes in.' Herc saw a ready-made audience for his 'breakdowns'.

The merry-go-round involved him mixing sections of James Brown's 'Give It Up Or Turn It loose

Im so old I cant recall:smt003
But it was the disco stuff of the 80s etc. Boney M, Yaz, but there was a lot of one hit wonders. Oh, Also Jackson Five and MJ of course!!!
I very early ventured off of that when Uprising came out and Black Uhuru came on the scene - this stuff was HUGE in Sweden then and I was forever lost in Reggae land.
I listened a lot to some Metal bands as well, like Black Sabbath. Was always a fan of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd and hate to admit it: Def Leppard.
I have always been all over the map when it comes to music.
