Facts!

[@Jedi_Black]

It’s Afro-American culture/heritage period..

[@YourgirlCici143]

So informative 🙌🏾🙌🏾 A lot of other black cultures like to make African-Americans feel less than and we have so much to be proud of not only for ourselves but because we influence most other black cultures and other cultures as well… It is truly a beautiful thing to understand ❤️

Black Americans Created All Modern Music In The World

[@djsaeg]

amen except reggae , dub, jungle and dubstep but those where all black aswell

[@hectorsleonn]

Thank you for this! As a non-black person, I can thank Black music for also helping shape my identity and giving me a voice growing up 🙌🏽

[@ChiefVezBMM]

Hip Hop is under attack just like how country music & rock & roll was. I can’t give up our cultural birthrights.

[@rbgalldayeveryday]

I watched Microphone Check Hidden History Of Hip by Tariq Nasheed and that was a very good information of hip-hop.

[@abdallaernestbaba2390]

I was looking for a short summary of African American music for my Black History course. This segement of a series is not short, but it is fabulous, in that it is historically, factually, and cuturally grounded and presented by an knowlegeable sister who knows who she is, as she discloses who we are as a people, nothing less than the rhythmic heart, body, and soul of this country.

[@gudkush420]

I've been wanting to learn more about the history of black american music for a while now. Thank you for taking the time to put all this together. Youre amazing!

[@LifeonPlanets]

Im late to the party but so glad this is here. Thank you sis!!

[@Papparazzi18]

This is the most enlightening video that I've found in a very long time. My journey here started with curiosity about why I gravitated towards certain artists like James Brown, Sly Stone, and Isaac Hayes and furthermore breakbeats and hip hop arrangements. Thank you very much

[@kfighterkfighterTBTR]

THIS IS FANTASTIC! THANK YOU Professor Fredara Hadley & Serato. I cant wait to show my class and our community!💯💯❤🖤💚

[@vancralcharles7209]

Those informations are so important So mad respect Fredara

[@noahkontos4436]

It's important to me to spread the original influences of black genres that have been long suffocated by white corporate record companies. It's sad that people aren't aware of the incredible jazz, funk, soul and the fusions between them in this day and age

[@vickieharris3850]

You know jealousy from white corporate record companies..now they using that autotune to destroy all black american music..but we will bounce back with something new..the white corporate record companies cannot invent anything musical

[@CITYOFSHOOTERS]

And we were taught to give Africa the credit for all our innovations unlike other black people Who take pride in their achievements

[@donaldmccall3968]

Big ups to Fredara and Serato for the info

Great lecture! Thanks a lot! Born in Russia, raised in dark 90-s, I was destined to be part of doomers and depressive post-punk sounds. But happily Howling Wolf and John Coltrane crossed my path) Black culture have such a great heritage!

That's Prof. Fredara Hadley from the Juilliard School :)

[@campbellmcleod]

Hi Serato! This is so great. But, what happened to Episode 3? My kids would love to get that part of musical history.

[@kyraocity]

32:04 Repetition allows for groove and improvisation. How the body responds to music. Without an anchor, there is not mechanics of music-making. The body of steady pulse, groove, metronomic sense (but not a machine as if black bodies are objects). How we engage is everythang. 39:00 power of community + 39:39 amusement

[@JadeZuberi]

POWERFUL

Not only black people music.dont for Black people Dance style as well although Africans Americans don't get paid as much for their music but no Disrespect to this new Rap but the only Reason this new Rap is so popular because is it a lot of negative in it the is influencing our young people because back in the 70s when Hip-Hop first came out in the Bronx NYC they was trying to Band it because the young brother back then was Rapping about the struggle black people was going through in America and trying uplift black people they wanted to band that now these new Rappers that Rappers thug Gangster Guns calling black females holds and four Leg Dog and calling each other the N-word thats why they supporting this Rap music today not Hip-Hop i like to separate old hip hop to this new rap cuz Hip Hop was clean music party storytelling enjoy music not like this rap all about Thug and gangsters so we need to separate hip hop from rappers

All these black music of America wouldnt have existed without the inflluence of other people's culture too. If all of you were taken to brazil other than the United States, your so called culture would have been different. All of the slaves who left Africa took on the culture of their masters and indigenous cultures to some degree..
