I think that it's mostly decided by location. where do black people live(not to be racist) east coast and the south. southern communities stayed and caught on mostly blues, as this moved around it became different things, it really did evolve through white community areas. in the poorer getto communities it evolved into rap. once you're going down a road like that it is hard to turn back. even today these cultural society borders still kinda bar other races to a traditional music. although in other countries it's not necessarily the same way- you don't see alot of asain rock bands in USA but in japan and china they are extremely common. it may be the same- i bet africa and jamaica have alot more black rock bands.
