The black population has fought hard to get where they are in today's society in terms of their courage, beliefs and faith to accomplish what they have done in the fields of politics and music. They have been affective in the field of politics by having leaders such as Dr. Martin Luther king Jr., Malcolm x and Nelson Mandela lead them to a civil right society where everyone was treated equally. And they have also been part of the revolution of music in terms of how many categories they have invented and taken over. In the field of politics, their leaders led their community in different ways that at the end; their work paid off. They won each and every battle they had to fight. But the most important battle they had to face was to influence their people to do right things and help them achieve goals in life. They made them believe in themselves in every way, that they could do whatever they were capable of doing.

The involvement of blacks in revolution of music is huge in terms of how many categories they have taken over. Music has always been one of the many passions of the Black community. As in Africa, black slaves used to sing while working to get a relief about their pains and suffering. It has been their refuge whenever they had problems. They have carried the same habit with them when they moved in Europe and in America. From there, blacks have made their ways to studios, to reviews and to stages around the world. They have created a lot of different categories in music such as: gospel then later into Blues. In the 40's, they came up with a mix of Rhythms and Blues. And finally, they came up with the most unusual kind of music ever heard around the world, Rap. Making their ways to the top, it wasnt easy for them but they made it anyway. They had to face racism (whites disagreeing with their kinds of music), arresting black artists all the time with false accusations, just to turn them down associating their music with violence in America and other stuff. Despite all those situations, the black community kept their heads up despite there was no place for their kind of music. They believed in their dreams and had faith in what they were doing. Just like anyone else, they did whatever they had to do to keep their dreams alive. After all these achievements in the industry, blacks have made an identify for themselves around the world and have pushed many others to do the same thing as them, which is to follow their dreams and not let anyone take that away from them.

The black population has fought hard to get where they are in today's society in terms of their courage, beliefs and faith to accomplish what they have done in the fields of politics and music. Their leaders have influenced them in many ways have influenced this nation. Through their leaders, they have had the courage to stand up for their rights and beliefs. And through all the speeches and acts that they did, it has given the black nation courage to be people in a society and do things the right way.

hi najah,
thanks for your comments, but i think you missnderstood the point here, in short, the subject here reflects the success of black nationalisms in the field of music, those people who were sufferring alot and for decades from their rights, so to relief such pain they expressed it through the music.

secondly, if you read carefully you will realize that this study can be a research study, i hcame to know some people do their high studies on these subject, it is proud for them especially the black people in USA.

dont think here i am trying to underestimate those people or try to differentaite the the people based on their coulors.

finally i am black skin , and i am proud for what i am, moreove, i do like the rap and hip hop music of the black americans.
