But pretending there are no black influences is pretty dumb.
If you think that is what I said, that would be dumb.
Here is the deal though, all popular musical instruments use European notation. The way a banjo, guitar, fiddle, piano or harmonica are played, is based on European standards. That's just a fact. It's all the same thing.

Everyone knows that. That’s why the white man paid homage with “honky tonk badonkadonk”

Yep I believe it was in the 1890s that it was invented but it was brought over to the south and artists loved the sound so much that they incorporated into the bands of that time. The steel guitar pushed country music over the top. I watch reaction videos of folks who have never heard of it and are fascinated by the sound.
Bing Crosby used it in some of his songs.

My hope is for people to watch this beautiful piece of film while having a different appreciation for the genre of country music and the artists who so boldly choose to stand in the light,” Kissi said.
Why can't film folks just speak and act like normal human beings. Jada's whorish affair is quantum entanglement, Will's thug arse assault is him being a vessel of love and protection, and this guy acts like yet another kings and queens puff piece is a beautiful film of majestic beings standing in the light

Mr. Pride was the second biggest selling artist on RCA only to Elvis.

The intention of Sun Records was to give a voice to black artists in that area. Elvis came on and listeners thought he sounded black.

They have it backwards, Thomas sowell
Explains it all in his book black redneck white liberal. It’s a must read. Black’s their culture from rednecks.

Did you read the quote I was Replying to in my first comment you replied to?
Also what do you mean by European standards?

A lot of the origins of country music were irish influenced.
The Irish, Scottish, English, and from the French later (Acadian) folk music meandered and weathered through a few centuries in North America. These led to generations of rustic country and what is described as country music today.
A lot of the Texas “Western” sound (as in Country-Western - you know, BOTH KINDS of music) was German and Czech influenced.

Yea, it's not.
And never has been.

I live with literally the only black guy in this town. He will set up the big speaker on the lawn and start blaring Waylon, Hank, Prine, Walker, etc., and confuse the shite out of everyone passing by.
He will happily and readily admit that this is pure cracker music, but he was brainwashed in his upbringing by his adoptive rural Indiana white family. Just another sad case of cultural appropriation.

Ken Burns did this a couple of years ago.

Does anyone, other than a very small minority, think this? Are country music fans majority white? Absolutely. Are they the only people country music is for? Absolutely not.

There are 12 notes that have a specific value, the progression from low to high happens at specific intervals that were standardized hundreds of years ago in Europe. The notes even have names based on the European alphabet.

I just hate the white people who perpetuate this. White folks are the worst when it comes to pandering.

Usually, it's only folks who are white when it suits them and a minority when it doesn't, but they have plenty of retarded white women and effeminate white guys to regurgitate their destructive opinions.

This should be considered evidence of the origin of the music.

You realize other cultures use those same notes and have different scales
And some most early American folk musicians couldn’t read music and picked thing sup by ear. Leading to things like blues scales. Which weren’t an intentionally deviation of a European scale but reflections of other cultural influences.
