African Rhythm

If there was anything Africans were owed billions, if not trillions of dollars over it’s the invention and innovation of African rhythm. African rhythmic techniques were exported over the Atlantic centuries ago and became the foundation to the blues, jazz, reggae, hip-hop and pop music. Our rhythm not only contributed to music, but to dance aswell. Our ability to move back, forth and sideways to every drum beat influenced modern dance and entertainment which contributes billions to the world’s economies. We now know how much of a commodity and how much value our natural form of entertainment was/is,  it’s not just gold that makes Africa so rich in resources, but its people too.
