What is the GOAT decade for black music? (poll)

[Days of Future Piff]

List is incomplete without the roaring 20's

30's jazz

and

40's blues

Duke Ellington was the Kanye of the 30's.

Ella Fitzgerald was the Mariah of the 30's

Billie Holiday was the Whitney of the 30's

Billy Eckstein was the R Kelly of the 40's

Ink Spots was the Jodeci of the 40's

Louis Jordon was the Drake of the 40's.

Good looking out, I added another option for the 40s or before.

Kendrick, Gambino, Nipsey that’s all you could list?

I'm an old head
I don't follow anything current music-wise.

Spoiler

I only originally signed up on the Coli because of the DBZ threads

It's between the 60's and the 70's.

From the late 60's to the late 70's, AA music reached its peak. Those guys were pure geniuses.

It's at its lowest point now.

This. There were true geniuses in the 70s that played instruments, wrote songs and could sing.

Did you really say New Jack Swing was a 90s thing?

 

[Swagnificent]

Easily the 50s and 60s soul music.

All you nikkas voting the 70s is bugging.

I did.

50s soul music is the GOAT. https://www.thecoli.com/threads/lat...usic-goat-era-in-the-history-of-music.673421/

I voted 80s. Everyone knows that Teddy's jam came out around 88

 

[xiceman191]

Anything before the 70s I haven't really messed with but I would definitely say my favorite eras are the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s.
