is it always possible to tell apart a black guy singing from a white guy? unless its like death metal or something i think black people have a distinctive voice that especially comes through when they're singing r'n'b stuff or similar
when Elvis got on the air there was a scandal cause people thought he was a black guy singing.

but looking back now, he doesn't really sound all that black. I guess back then he sounded black for a white guy, but you wouldn't mistake him for someone like Marvin Gaye or any black blues singer

It depends on the genre. Hell, I thought Mike Shinoda was black until I saw a picture of him.
Listen to Arthur Lee and tell me that man doesn't sound white.
Not always

Not really. Rick Astley sounds black and he's the whitest guy ever.
