in fact i find the facts quite fascinating, little details like how 'Love, love me do' is a completely different thing when written down in sheet music compared to when it's sung with the Afro-Cuban jilt to the rhythm (and that goes for most pop songs, and hence why those modern hippie churches/congregations have a tough time singing those modern poppy hymns) - facts like that have greatly advanced my understanding of music over the years

but often the discussion doesn't get to that stage of being musically interesting, which is sort of the problem

i imagine SOME people would dislike admitting those sorts of things on principle because... *gasp* they have a collectivist mindset

on the other hand 'black music' is so broad a term as to be almost useless, so i don't go around using it personally
