If rockers are going to look to the blacks for inspiration/influence.. it makes sense that other non-rockers will do the same in non-musical pursuits

I am about as big of a music fan as someone will ever meet. None of my favorite artists are black. Why? I am a fan of rock music and they are not as well represented. Second, I mostly gravitate to dark or angry content. Blacks, for one reason or another, do not express themselves in such a way. They tend to be more about celebrating life and love or in the case of hip-hop.. bragging about their money, guns, and women.

Even Hendrix had a hard time filling up an album without a generous amount of "FREE FORM FUNKA-FIED FILTH" thrown in.
His "smash hits" album is about the only Hendrix album of his that a Rock Music Fan needs to buy.

Read the biographies and interviews of most white rock stars from the 70's to now.. and you will see the same names mentioned as being highly influential to them.. Little Richard, Otis Redding, Muddy Waters, Jimi Hendrix, Sam Cooke, Wilson Pickett, Chuck Berry, and George Clinton.

There's some PC spread in that "I was influenced by..."
Gots to be inclusive, ya know.

I was influenced by a negro in Ypsilanti, MI.
Summer day, windows down, stopped at a light.
Mr. Influencer in the next lane looked over at me and said,"I'll kill you."

Driving while white, I guess.

My considerable collection starts in the late 70's at the earlies. As for why most hard rock/punk rock is consumed by whites... it has to do with what we want from it. I do not want to hear about bitches, money, swag, weed, living in the projects. The average black person does not want to hear about self reflection, being angry, depression, regret, or fantastical themes (Dream theatre, rush, coheed and cambria). Young people tend to gravitate to music/movies that speak to themes of glamour, wealth, confidence, etc.. Sonic Youth, The Cure, Nine Inch Nails, The Clash, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam.. do not speak to themes like this at all

I used to be into angry music (white) when I was younger.  I lost my taste for it.  It just doesn't speak to me anymore. I find myself appreciating genuine musicians - people who have studied music, can create genuine masterpieces.  Could be jazz, new age, symphonic, even symphonic metal, occasionally, there are contemporary artists that can produce one-off masterpieces.  Ian Anderson, in his prime, created some ground-breaking masterpieces.  Miles Corbin of the Aqua Velvets - his music appeals to me.  But, I even like Rockabilly and some country (not **** new country, though).

It all depends on what you seek out of it.. emotions, excellence of product, nostalgia, patriotism, etc. I do not necessarily need the musician to be of the utmost skill. It helps on some occasions because otherwise it is indecipherable if not. If you simply strum the guitar as fast as you can, down tune it, and lower the volume on the vocals.. it can often sound like a chainsaw running with no audible ups and down in tempo, pitch, or anything.

Yeah I'm a pretty good sketch artist but that's a whole 'nuther level right there...[assuming that this was done before computer assisted art work was invented]

My "sketch art" looks like something drawn by a schizophrenic 10 year old.  But, my real inspiration was mind-blowingly boring teachers.  Would sketch things so I wouldn't fall asleep in class.  Basically, Hunter Biden is a better artist that I am.

You and I are just different, musically - which is cool.  I do need the music to showcase some exceptional skill and a level of complexity.  Otherwise, it just bores me.
 

Probably in the late 60s early 70s when a bunch of burnt out white hippies started licking the boots of *** Panthers. To this day the left still licks the boots of *** Panthers and are over eager to please them.

Ancient Babylonians (Mesopotamians).  Not Arabs. Not Semitic people. A 2013 genetic analysis of four ancient Mesopotamian skeletal DNA samples suggests an association of the Sumerians with Indus Valley civilizations, and some scholars associate the Sumerians with the Hurrians, Urartians, and suggest the Caucuses as their homeland.  Not F-ing Arabs.

Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi was a 9th-century Muslim mathematician and astronomer. He is known as the “father of algebra”

LOL - he's only 1000 years behind the 8-ball.   Ancient Babylonians and ancient Egyptians were using Algebra long before Muhammad raped his first child.

Who actually invented algebra?
Al-Khwārizmī is famous for his mathematical works, which introduced Hindu-Arabic numerals and algebra to European mathematicians.

That was Algeebra Dontavious Washington. 

If we go further back into time the FATHER OF ALL WIGGERS might have been the SELF LOATHING, MENTALLY ILL, "WHITE GUILT" LIBTARD who wrote the book..."BLACK LIKE ME"....?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Like_Me
Notice how this article claims that the author of this book was ambushed [after stopping with a flat tire  and beaten with chains by a truck load of White Supremacists who had nothing better to do than to wait for him to have a flat tire so that they could ambush him].
Of course......!!!
