I'm not sure a Jamaican can learn much new about dance from Africa, except maybe from the mighty Congolese. Jamaicans are near the top in dance skills. My background's Nigerian btw.

***** Africa is beautiful with so many different countries and cultures. It's sad to see that some Caribbean people believe that their roots are not from there. One of dreams is to visit Africa especially Nigeria,Ghana, Kenya and South Africa.

Fact

H .

Dancehall is exclusively from Jamaica and no other country. Doesn't matter if Africa is the motherland or whatever the fuck y'all claim it to be

Don't be mad.. It's the motherland

@ Tiffay Hyatt'' dancehall been around long before Afros and before it was even called dancehall stupid..''' In the first place, the term Afrobeat in the present usage is quite new. In fact I can't say exactly how it got accepted as a way of describing the kind of popular music these young Nigerians and Ghanaians make these days. It was formerly used by Late musician, Fela Anikulapo Kuti for his Afrocentric activist kind of music that was mainly about social criticism and Afro-consciousness. Recently, with the help of internet, Nigerian and Ghanaian young musicians have got their music accessible to the wider world and they have got very popular as well. You need to know also that the picture of music you have as Afrobeat is most apparently only a mere fraction of the diverse textures of music found within the popular music genres of these countries, and even more when the entire continent is included. Mind you, at this stage the uncountable diverse ethnic cultural and traditional music genres across the continent are not yet included, as they go their own different parts but can serve as source of inspirations and influences to these popular musicians. Yet, these countries have always been making music and have their own long histories as well as you Jamaicans do. '' Dancehall is no way linked to Afro beats as dancehall is very hardcore and vulgar and Afro beats is NOT'' If something like vulgarity is a necessity for a dancehall music, then this music is not a dancehall music as it lacks overt vulgarity. No need to complain then. '''Dancehall nor reggae was inspired by Africans'''--Dancehall originated in the late 1970s and had its root in Reggae and in fact was in a way, a new version of Reggae and tended more towards dancing than meaningful lyrics as seen in Reggae, if I may say. Reggae originated in late 1960s and was built on these: Jamaican traditional mento (evolved from the mixture of music from West Africa with some added European elements) and the American Jazz and RnB (American Jazz and RnB also evolved similarly from the African music mixed with European elements). But it actually evolved in stages: first, it was Ska, Rocksteady, and I would say, they are all same with Reggae but with faster tempos and the basic features of Reggae less emphasized. Worthy of note is Rastafarianism. Rastafari is an Abrahamic belief which developed in Jamaica in the 1930s, following the coronation of Haile Selassie I as Emperor of Ethiopia in 1930. The emperor here became God incarnate and Ethiopia becomes a holy land for the Ratas. Rastafarian culture therefore gets inspiration from Ethiopia and it is all about liberation of black people from their oppressors and the possible repatriation of African descent in diaspora to their African homeland. In April 1966, emperor Haile Selassie visited Jamaica and Bob Marley would later visit a number of African countries like Kenya, Ethiopia, Gabon and Zimbabwe around 1978 to 1980. The reggae music was heavily inspired by Rastafarian culture, first in lyric and then in music in general. The biggest Reggae music's ambassador to the world we know is Bob Marley, especially from when he moved to the UK and released the album Exodus in 1977 and 'One Love' is one of the most popular of his songs I know. Bob Marley was a hardcore Rastafarian and was emotionally and sometimes physically attached to Africa than his home country Jamaica. Ska originated in Jamaica in late 1950s and as I said earlier, gave birth to Rocksteady and Reggae genres. Ska combined elements of Caribbean Mento and Calypso (Trinidadian version of Mento and was also mixture of music from West Africa with some European elements) with American jazz and rhythm and blues. Mento is a style of Jamaican folk music that predates and has greatly influenced Ska and Reggae music. It draws on musical traditions brought by West African slaves. They also absorbed European musical traditions, creating a new form. Slaves who could play musical instruments were often required to play music for their masters and often rewarded for such skills.The Africans created a creole music, incorporating such elements of these traditions, including quadrille, into their own folk music. The Jamaican mento style has a long history of conflation with Trinidadian calypso. Sometimes people would confuse each with the other as they are so similar. Now, Calypso is a style of Afro-Caribbean music that originated in Trinidad and Tobago during the early to mid-20th century and spread to the rest of Caribbean Antilles and Venezuela. Its rhythms can be traced back to West African Kaiso and the arrival of French planters and their slaves from the French Antilles in the 18th century. Calypso drew upon African and French influences, and became the voice of the people. It was characterized by highly rhythmic and harmonic vocals, which was most often sung in a French creole and led by a griot. As calypso developed, the role of the griot (originally a similar traveling musician in West Africa) became known as a chantuelle and eventually, calypsonian. This Calypso would later get mixed with some Indian musical instruments-particularly the dholak, tabla and dhantal to get what you now refer as Soca music by Lord Shorty (real name is Garfield Blackman) -- Soca music (also known as the soul of calypso) is a genre of Caribbean music that originated within a marginalized subculture in the Trinidad and Tobago in the late 1970s, and developed into a range of styles in the 1980s and later. Soca developed as an offshoot of kaiso/calypso, with influences from cadence, funk and soul.

+Phaedra Garvey Thankyou

our origins come from Africa but the "Caribbean" culture is influenced by Africa so it is different it's kind of like evolution but still it's all the same

thanx so much at least i found someone thinking lyk me...we all black

+Cissy Nanny We are all AFRICANS not Black. You are an African from Jamaica, Trinidad, Barbados etc. I am an African from Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal etc. Stop owning the negative stereotype. That's a slave mentality. We do not have 'Black culture or people's in Africa. What we have is Nigerian, Ghanaian or Senegalese cultures.

+nnaamen ....if u ain't proud of your colour then its a pity am African yes but with a dark skin which i refer as black and so so proud of.😊☺😊☺

Not all Caribbean people have African roots...our background consistent with Spaniard,Indian,Portuguese,Italian,Puerto Rican, Japanese, Chinese,Caucasian,Irish,Dominican,Gypsy and Korean. Tami Chynn & Tessanne Chin prove how diverse the Caribbean is.

Claire B He meant Black Caribbeans!

FashiYika Emma do you use the term Afro-Caribbeans?

Claire B smh black ppl are the majority in the caribbean hence africa is the largest culture pool the caribbean draw from and that is fact

Claire B you know some of those backgrounds have black DNA in them right? Learn your history !

Um no. Caribbean music ISNT inspired by African music. trust me

lol it has been since enslaved Africans were brought to the Caribbean. Inspired doesn't mean it's just like African music or a copy of it.

+Remiirich Diary Yes it is 😂😂😂 Why does that bother you?

the caribbean comprises a mixture of races, the culture is too diverse for the music to be "heavily" inspired by african music...

+Cicelia Corbin Well you clearly aren't African or familiar with African music. I've grown up with African music so it's hard to deny the FACT that Caribbean music is heavily inspired by African music. Yes Caribbean music has its own twist due to the mixture of culture. But, every genre of Caribbean music sounds similar to African music.

I just love Africa mucis
