I am TIRED of getting comments on my videos "well I can't find any newer black musicians/bands cause heavy music is like a white people thing, right?"
WRONG, lol
Here's a thread of black musicians, or bands with black members that you've never heard of

And if I missed anybody, feel free to tag your faves below! Always looking for more recomendations 
(some of these bands might be popular to us, but unless they're selling out areans there's always someone who doesn't know them!)

I have all the time in the world for this band and they deserve WAY more.
it's like if PARTYNEXTDOOR and Volumes had an angsty little baby. If you're a fan of DGD or Issues, you will 100% fuck with this.
Song: 'Ride'

Pinkshift's sound is the boiling pot of pop-punk angst. It's very much like seeing Three Cheers and Best Damn Thing have a fistfight.
Song: 'Rainwalk'

Mint Green is the embodiment of 2000s soft indie/emo. If you're getting tired of crying to Modern Baseball in the shower, try Mint Green.
(it wouldn't let me upload a video :(




Without exaggeration, Jhariah is singlehandedly the reincarnation of Panic! A The Disco.... but even better. Just trust me.
Song: 'Needed A Change Of Pace'

A beautiful blend of trap beats and metal guitars, making you unsure whether to headbang or just absolutely body someone in the pit.
Song: 'GlitchGang'

Proper make me feel all soft and sad inside, I feel like the main character in a movie who's going THRU it.
Song: 'Bragging Rights'

I can't even describe this band except literally the most amazing, heaviest shit I have heard in my entire life, everything else is dead to me.

Simply put, these guys have their finger on the pulse of what's next for pop-punk. It's everything you loved, and more.
Song: 'Barricades'

These guys are growing fast, they're not my small bbys anymore.

Song: 'Garden'

Listen, I'm not saying Pulses are the reincarnates of DGD..... but that's exactly what I'm saying. It's groovy af, riffy af, and fucking hard af.
Song: 'Louisiana Purchase'





https://open.spotify.com/artist/0tko2stnUOqejIto8rKRh7?si=hIIV_yGoRzyFb1hIYVJKfw

Some of the juiciest riffs and uncleans I've heard in a LONGGG time, shit is fucking HARD. I wanna burn down a house to their music.
Song: 'Skin'





https://open.spotify.com/artist/4hizDhcij3xrH69kcQ4R3i?si=WFnYaeSQQOa_smBu-47kUA

These dudes are insane, I don't even want to put them in a genre because each song they put out is always shooting for something different than the last. It's great.
Song: 'Losing You'



https://open.spotify.com/artist/5NZ2tkIg8nqK1yMbRoL0DE?si=SqD3V5p0QhumAHLkQgKXyA

These pair are growing like mad, but in my mind, they're still my favourite band that put out an album like yesterday (it's been a year omg)
it won't let me upload a video rip :(




He's small by no means, but it's rare to see him included in these threads despite his heavy fucking BANNGGEERSSS.
Plus, he reps my hometown so all the luv for my guy <333
Song: 'APXCALYPSE'
