Black Americana is a genre of music that emerged in the early 20th century and is rooted in African American folk music. It is a blend of blues, jazz, spirituals, and work songs, and often features call-and-response vocals. It is characterized by its use of improvisation, syncopation, and polyrhythms. It is often associated with the rural South and is often seen as a precursor to the development of rock and roll.
