Why do most black people dislike rock music?
>>
It requires an IQ of at least 2 digits to enjoy.
>>
The black culture of today is shaped heavily around black identity, but in a way which rejects other racial cultures, especially white, to the point that it's somewhat culturally taboo to enjoy anything that's not black. Rock music is very heavily associated with white culture, hence black people tend to veer away from it. It's not as simple as "hurr durr dumb niggers". The reason it's not true with white culture is because of the history of white-black relations, where now white people are trying to make up for their ancestor's sins, so they connect more with black culture (the people who were slaves to white people) and avoid the negative connotations of the white stereotype.

I bet you could trick black women into liking metal music

I know a couple black people who like rock music and several others who have never voiced an opinion. I also know a lot of white people who would rather listen to rap. That just seems to be the most appealing to many young people right now.
Black people really hate new wave though.

I was listening to a radio show and some comedians decided that jimmy buffet was the whitest musician and had 0 black fans.

I noticed a lot of black hipsters like joy division which is a really white band that even uses fascist imagery lol

You pose a good question considering that black people basically invented rock music. (And Phil Lynott was black)

I bet it sounds a little gay to them.

Well of course but to blacks new wave music must be like a big cock sucking parade.
>>
>>65674684
Just because most rock fans are white, that doesn't mean everyone else hates it.
>>
Because rock music, which was invented by Black people, was stolen by the whiteys

>>65675701
it's funny how black people like to take all the claim for rock music despite the fact they hate it and despite the fact that outside of jimi hendrix, black people have had very little to do with the creation of actual

Actually, it's been proven that nigger born people have a predisposition to liking rock music. I'm not saying whites can't or don't, but they are the biological exception to the rule. My nigga

In my experience, it's simply lack of exposure in black areas. Rock music just isn't part of the culture in heavily black parts of at least the West Coast. It's hard for people to find out about it, so "normies" in black communities are oblivious. I once had a black girl tell me the only rock band she knew was Linkin Park, because they'd worked with Jay Z.
On the other hand, I'm from a very white area, and the vast majority of black people I know from white areas ARE into indie rock, indie pop, etc., even if they are more into other genres... interestingly, these other genres tend to be R&B and EDM, and not hip hop. Most of the hip hop kids here (Colorado) seem to be white or hispanic.

I feel like white people get into music more than black people as fans.
Like a lot more white people know who young thug is than black people know who thom yorke is.
Like it would be funny for a black person to even know who the arctic monkeys are or any radio plebe rock band even.

YO TYRONE YOU HEAR THE NEW QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE THAT SHIT FIRE!

blacks think white music is lame af squareboi shit

so do most people under 25

>where now white people are trying to make up for their ancestor's sins

What sins? None of my family owned any slaves and never will and in my country White people were the Slaves. There is no sin and the sooner self-hating upper middle class kids like you realise that the better this world will be.

I can't really comment because most of the black people I know are fairly "normie", but I can say that I do have one friend, a black girl, who's really obsessive with music, albeit not in typical /mu/ fashion... she is really into old French singers like Serge Gainsbourg and Francoise Hardy, as well as West African music. She loves finding obscure old reggae, West African (Mbalax, Malian music, etc.), etc. records.

Its true though, kanye went up to thom after the grammies once and thom was all "lol whatever loser"
Then rap gave up trying to get indie cred by using thom so they had to get off brand thom with chris martin and then the coldplay faggots was singing hooks on rap songs for no raisan.
