This is a blog.

OpenAI scraped the entire web. All of which had been a labor of love from humans. Wikipedia is the backbone of a lot of LLMs, and that was volunteer human labor. They stole it and now they're selling it back to us.

someone on reddit explained 😭

- O. Children: really amazing goth music, Black lead singer, they aren’t making music anymore but what they’ve put out is amazing

- Overthrust: a death metal band from Botswana (Botswana has a real cool metal and rock culture, just real fun to look into outside of listening to it)

- Jhariah: an amazing Black alternative artist, I love all of their music, I grew up listening to them to be honest

- Sepultura: Brazilian heavy metal band, one of the main singers is Black, their music is epic

- Filth: another amazing metal band, I believe from somewhere in America, one of the singers is Black, and they’ve got a real cool album called “Southern Hostility”

- Loathe: yet another metal band, but they’re actually metalcore band I’m pretty sure, one of the main singers is Black and their music is less headbangy and more smooth and sad

- Zulu: an all Black metal band, their music very cool, I personally like their song “Protest Song ‘68”

- Move BHC: really epic metal, main singer is Black and their music is very political (in a good way) it really helps when the world feels like it sucks to put them on and just feel the anger

- Living Colour: of course! We have to include them, my favorite band of all time, I got to see them live recently actually :D their music is funk metal- just so amazing

- Public Enemy: for people who aren’t as into metal but still are into political and well worded music, their music is great (I’m sure everyone knows since they’re so popular lol but I felt like I needed to include them)

- Mon Rovia: really great folk music that still has a political undertone, I especially like his song “Heavyfoot” it addresses a lot of current issues in a tactful and beautiful way

- This isn’t a specific artist but “Dinner Party: Dessert” is an amazing album that has so many talented Black artists on it, my favorite song is “From My Heart and My Soul”

- Also not a specific artist but the whole Sinners album (both theatrical soundtrack and score)

- Also not an artist but the “Summer of Soul” documentary’s album, just chefs kiss

- Meshell Ndegeochello: AMAZING MUSIC, my favorite album is “The Omnichord Real Book”

- Burna Boy: need I say more? I will, his music is absolutely beautiful and I’d recommend it to anyone who asked

- 24-7 Spyz: funky heavy metal, their music is amazing, I so recommend!!!

- Tyler, the Creator: just an amazing artist! Recommend his music lots!!!!

- Stevie Wonder: obviously! He got so popular for a reason! His music is amazing

- Vieux Farka Touré: Amazing music, my favorite song of his is “Diaraby Magni”

- Soul Glo: an all Black hardcore band from Philadelphia!! My favorite song of theirs is “Gold Chain Punk”

Ok so I may have written way too much I apologize

Hope this helps anyone trying to diversify their music tastes, ESPECIALLY metal fans, there are always Black people in all music forms, stop saying “oh there’s no Black people in metal” YES there is!!! And their music is amazing!
