Actually there was an African-American country singer back in the 70s named Charley Pride. He was one of the biggest names in country in his day. Now there's a guy named Cowboy Troy who actually combined rap and country into what he calls hick-hop. It's quite interesting. That's about it though.

Charley Pride is an African American country star from way back. They are getting ready to make a movie about his life.

Along with Charlie Pride, there was a man in the early 90's named Cleve Francis, who sang a song called "Love Light". He was a brain surgeon turned country star.

Charlie Pride..."Pride was elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2000. Election to the Country Music Hall of Fame is the highest honor in country music". Please go to the source of this answer and read up on him. Charlie was in the country music biz a long time ago...

Yes. Charlie Pride was popular in the 70s & there's another current guy making his way in country music. Forget his name now.

there's an older country singer who is African American by the name of Charlie Pride...and there is that one who was with Big And Rich. Cowboy Troy was his name I think.
