Do you think black people's voice is good for rock/metal music or not?!


Question: What are some good rock/metal bands with black vocals? The only good band that I know is Sevendust... But Killswitch Engage sucks just because of the vocals.

As mentioned Bad Brains pull it off well, and Poly Styrene from X-Ray Spex is part black, though you wouldn't know it from the vocals. and I guess we're not counting Chuck Berry and Little Richard and Bo Diddly style rock. Because all three put out some of the best rock and were black.

I think it's funny that black voices don't seem to match modern rock 'n' roll anymore, especially since it was basically a black invention.

And I don't think he meant to be racist, just that a black person is more likely to have a certain type of voice than a white person and it doesn't quite go along so well with metal and such, but then again metal isn't renowned for excellent vocals even as it currently is (dominated by whites).

I dont think it matters what race you are. If your voice is good then it shouldnt matter what type of music you sing. African American women cant all sing like Beyonce. Latinos cant all sing like J-lo. I like sevendust.

skin is the only one i know and some other group..can't think of the name right now

Yes as good as any other nationality ...UUmmm thats one guy.....

I'm the exact opposite i like Killswitch and don't really like Sevendust. I guess it all depends on the person

Skindred is pretty amazing, they are phenomenal live. Bad Brains has always held their own. There's also: Fishbone, Carnal Forge, Skunk Anansie, Body Count, God Forbid, Living Colour, and Sepultura..and those are just the ones I can think of.

I think people's voices are suited to certain types of music, but I don't think skin color really factors in.

Jimi Hendrix

The guys in Skindred and Sevendust are really good. It doesn't really matter what ethnicity you are, though. I know people from every race that aren't too good at metal-like singing.

sepultura

Sevendust is awesome and, for the record, i honestly wouldn't have even known they had a Black singer if i never saw them (not that i'd care) 'cause he's just a rocker to me. Another band i really liked was the all Black '90s rock band Living Color who sang "Cult of Personality". And Ty Taylor from RockStar:INXS was cool. if he comes out with a CD, it should be worth a listen.

for females, try Fefe Dobson

I think it works pretty well, because, ya know, black people sort of INVENTED rock and roll. yeah...

yes black people can sing metal buddy
why wouldnt they be able to?
and killswitch is awesome.
sevendust is alright i think that guys to whiney kinda i like

Jahred Shane (hed p.e.)
