Just noticed a reference to "intrinsically African". What the fuck is this?
"Africa" is a geographical term for an immense continent encompassing a bewildering variety of ethnicities and cultures, examples of which are establishing themselves in England as a result of an imperial past.

Is the OP denying the glorious array of such diverse genres as Touareg desert rock, southern township jive, the fado influence of former Portuguese colonies, the blues DNA of Mali and the Maghrebi / Berber rhythms of the north and wishing them all to be merged into one bland "Afro-pop" nonenity spewed out by coffee-coloured, anti-cultural buffoons? Any old deity forfend . . .
