why is it that "blacks" have natural rhythm ?

Question

i mean come on, have you ever met one that can't dance ?
why do they have this "natural rhythm", and yet the majority [if not all] of whites dont ?

and i apologise if any "blacks" are offended by the term; this is not meant to be racist, but i needed to accurately describe the race I mean

Answer 1

Black folks can sing great too. It isn't rascist question just curiosity. UK folks can sure sing and dance great too. It all is diffirent and that is what makes us all great. Germans make great cars and mechcanics and physics. By the way many blacks have made great inventions. All races have both good and bad, and Asians are good faithful workers and great artists and make the best d@m3d food . Mexicans are great hard workers too and great at song and dance too. Remember Riverdance Flatley Dancer performed here in Alaska and what an impressive show!! We have a Celt festival here in Anchorage in August and every year it is a fun time for all!

Answer 2

You know that not all blacks can dance though the majority can dance to a beat just like there are whites who can dance. I think it's lack of interest for whites because a look at the music you like most e.g. classic music, rock and techno shows that you are not really into rythmn.

Answer 3

Not all! We have a young man at school who while being delightful in every other possible way has absolutely no sense of rhythm at all.Doesn't stop him from enjoying the daily dance sessions though.

Answer 4

i really don't know...my only guess would be becuz most of them were raised in places where dancing and rhythm are popular, and maybe blacks are more into music than other races...but don't take my word for it becuz i'm not sure, and also i know not all blacks are like this so plz don't see this as racist

Answer 5

That's a generalisation! LOL Brian from BB8 can't dance!

Answer 6

On behalf of any race or culture, this I feel can be said of your three questions:

Any idea what the idea and word 'soul' means and implies in the vernacular of popular use?: it means the capacity and circumstance of having to improvise wherein a mass has been rent of conditions to sustain; this, by reason of vice brought by alien or remote imports wherein, for example, one may well have been beaten down, say, made to do much with little.

Amid the conditions of stark nature it means the acquiring a conformity and resonance 'with' nature wherein the mind and heart are yet brought to balances, wherein nothing is manufactured or reasoned into being, or made to become this, that, or somewhat other.

Stretch this out, over large expanses of time, amid large reaches of populations under all but identical conditions of incessant assault from an outside world over which Native Africans, for example, had little if any control, and what you will have produced is a people very much aligned to nature. For one might observe that all things natural have little remove from rhythm at their very core, for if found the reverse of this, then we could not rely so heavily or assume so readily in alike precisions such as sunrise and sunset, high and low tide, the mom rocking the baby rhythmically so in quiet lullaby, the passage of the freight train barreling alongside a great mountain pass impulsed by the rhythmical cycling of its mighty diesel engines.

All that attunes at once takes on a precise pattern of movement, which force and magnitude can be rendered a point in matter, energy, space, and time suitable to empirical observation and thus can derive of some form that can be manifested -- animate or inanimate -- and which by association with things kindred develop collective signatures -- whether human beings or stars... 'Matters not.

This should not be thought unusual: one need only live overseas in other English-speaking countries to impress upon oneself the common accent to them all. Tell me, who among any of these citizens so toiled to develop their accents? -- none, for it comes of natural course.

Possessing of rhythmical impulse is no less same, as is of arrhythmical leanings.

Ever observed that the closer to the barest of conditions of life and living some one or some thing proceeds, the more comes a burgeoning of the very things that are inborn? For one need only observe the poor peoples of the Appalachian areas and witness their styles of music and dance to observe considerably that here is a people of pronounce rhythmical sense and timing, equalling anything found among black people.

[ As aside is in order (rhythm) here: the word 'black' is an adjective, not a noun, and should not be used as a noun, but such has come to be the way of America -- its rhythm! ]

Accordingly -- when one is beaten down and isolated from otherwise entree, which privelege is found otherwise common for others to enjoy or even take for granted as readily accessible -- he or she does develop an innate soulfulness about him or her. Their follows a definite signatures style of about that person. 'Would matter not the culture or pigment of skin.

Rhythm is as much a part of predisposition to genetic adaptation as color of hair or thickness of skin -- genes are not bidden but rather fit to acclimate to the conditions of the host itself. Where the conditions are precise and rampant, the expressions are uniform.

Answer 7

This is an over-exaggerated "myth" conjured up by blacks and hip hoppers alike. I know PLENTY of African Americans that have absolutely no dancing "rythm" skills at all..

its a myth, created to Help them cope with the realities of being inferior to other races. kind of like a bitter comeback to historical realities, you know?

but to really answer your question, look to spain, the birthplace of all flamenco and salsa dancing.. Spains forms of dancing paved the way for all latin american countries forms of dancing for the most part.. And it all has more rythm than African-American-Unjulating-on-stage does..

Answer 8

thats wrong, i know quite a lot of black people, yeah, sure, some of them can sing and dance, but the rest are as just about as bad as me, but i also know loads of talented white people as well, so i think it is equal between any race.

Answer 9

I can't dance.

Answer 10

It's from generations of dodging bullets...

It was a phenomenon discovered in the Viet Nam War.

The Pentagon wanted to know why so many blacks were getting shot. Turned out when ever the Captain shouted

"Get Down" they all started dancing.......lol
