It's not exactly right to say that blacks invented rock. Rock grew out of the meeting between black and white rural styles. Listen to Chuck Berry: it's the blues meets country, black meets white. The notion that whites 'took' rock from blacks is just p.c. revisionist blather.

According to 'Dance Of Days' at least, when HR was on a particular 'is babylon/is not babylon' trip he was prone to homophobic tirades. The guys not stable and Bad Brains haven't really rocked since I Against I anyways..

Those who consider themselves music fans listen to multiple styles of music all the time. Those who don't, usually don't listen to music, or they limit themselves to listening to only a few styles. People of all races fall into both of these categories. Whoever asked this question, for some reason, has decided to place all black people into the latter category.
Yeah, this thread is horrible.
