Clue: “Many musicians today credit earlier musicians such as Scott Joplin or Bessie Smith with inspiring their music. It’s a shame that they can’t also name the earliest African-Americans who really began the traditions that led to the American music of today”: Nhiều nhạc sĩ ngày nay ghi nhận những cái tên đi trước như Scott Joplin hay Bessie Smith vì những nghệ sĩ này đã truyền cảm hứng sáng tác cho họ. Đáng tiếc là họ không thể biết được tên tuổi của những người Mĩ gốc Phi xa xưa – những người đã thật sự tạo ra những truyền thống bắt nguồn cho nền âm nhạc nước Mĩ ngày nay.
