On that anon asking about Black music artists and bands I have a few reccommendations!
- O. Children: really amazing goth music, Black lead singer, they arenāt making music anymore but what theyāve put out is amazing
- Overthrust: a death metal band from Botswana (Botswana has a real cool metal and rock culture, just real fun to look into outside of listening to it)
- Jhariah: an amazing Black alternative artist, I love all of their music, I grew up listening to them to be honest
- Sepultura: Brazilian heavy metal band, one of the main singers is Black, their music is epic
- Filth: another amazing metal band, I believe from somewhere in America, one of the singers is Black, and theyāve got a real cool album called āSouthern Hostilityā
- Loathe: yet another metal band, but theyāre actually metalcore band Iām pretty sure, one of the main singers is Black and their music is less headbangy and more smooth and sad
- Zulu: an all Black metal band, their music very cool, I personally like their song āProtest Song ā68ā
- Move BHC: really epic metal, main singer is Black and their music is very political (in a good way) it really helps when the world feels like it sucks to put them on and just feel the anger
- Living Colour: of course! We have to include them, my favorite band of all time, I got to see them live recently actually :D their music is funk metal- just so amazing
- Public Enemy: for people who arenāt as into metal but still are into political and well worded music, their music is great (Iām sure everyone knows since theyāre so popular lol but I felt like I needed to include them)
- Mon Rovia: really great folk music that still has a political undertone, I especially like his song āHeavyfootā it addresses a lot of current issues in a tactful and beautiful way
- This isnāt a specific artist but āDinner Party: Dessertā is an amazing album that has so many talented Black artists on it, my favorite song is āFrom My Heart and My Soulā
- Also not a specific artist but the whole Sinners album (both theatrical soundtrack and score)
- Also not an artist but the āSummer of Soulā documentaryās album, just chefs kiss
- Meshell Ndegeochello: AMAZING MUSIC, my favorite album is āThe Omnichord Real Bookā
- Burna Boy: need I say more? I will, his music is absolutely beautiful and Iād recommend it to anyone who asked
- 24-7 Spyz: funky heavy metal, their music is amazing, I so recommend!!!
- Tyler, the Creator: just an amazing artist! Recommend his music lots!!!!
- Stevie Wonder: obviously! He got so popular for a reason! His music is amazing
- Vieux Farka TourĆ©: Amazing music, my favorite song of his is āDiaraby Magniā
- Soul Glo: an all Black hardcore band from Philadelphia!! My favorite song of theirs is āGold Chain Punkā
Ok so I may have written way too much I apologize
Hope this helps anyone trying to diversify their music tastes, ESPECIALLY metal fans, there are always Black people in all music forms, stop saying āoh thereās no Black people in metalā YES there is!!! And their music is amazing!
