Cultural Appropriation

Because they haven't been. 

Except we have. Name a few prominent black people in the rock scene today… go on…I'm waiting…

The answer your waiting for won't prove either way if black people have been pushed out of rock music.

It's like asking to check someone's phone to show if they have any black friends or not to see if they're racist.

There's many different international rock scenes and different levels to each scene, from amateur bands to stadium rock bands.

So is it a conscious conspiracy to keep black people down in rock music that is spread internationally?  Or a subconscious collective thinking?

It can't always have been there because slash, lenny kravitz, the lead singer from HED PE made it through. Those are just the ones who I like or have been to see live off the top of my head.

I took music lessons in the city centre of where I live for a few years, no black people there were interested in rock music, none of them were pushed out, they just liked rap and hip hop instead.  A black guy started dancing wildly to slayer once when I played it over the main speakers which was funny, but other than that I didn't witness any real long term interest in rock music.

This doesn't prove anything I'm just saying maybe less black people take an interest in rock music, and from the ones who do take an interest it's difficult to become prominent in any scene.
