"NEGRO MUSIC" IN THE 50s

[MyCockCravesWomen]

i laughed sooo hard when i saw the title

[MickeyYahoo]

Cool to find that old film. Too bad you did what you did with it.

[rockinrichardradio]

That guy you call Tom Thumb sure looks like Clay Cole to me.....

Very funny video.....lol....can't stop laughing.

wnhu.net negro music heard every Wednesday 10am to 1pm east coast time

[Tattles94]

I'm pretty sure Tom Funk wasn't the first watered-down cheap imitation of something that was a lot better. How about Little Richard vs. Pat Boone. The Beatles vs. The Monkees (p.s. I kind of liked the Monkees)Those were pretty crappy imitations, right? Am I right? I get the point of this video. I mean, you can smell the sarcasm on it...

[barnabus5335]

negroes tickle me

[SacredFractals]

So you hear "ethinicity" vs. music? How sad for you ...... 

[kbs1212]

I laughed pretty hard at 2:34 watching them old 50's peeps dancing to Snoop.

[young1s4u4]

WTF do you mean "NEGRO" music??? Explain your position before I light into your ass??? It sounds like good ole' "REDNECK" music to me!!!!

[lovedinero99]

astug

[KMartin730]

Didn’t rock and roll start with ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK BY BILL HALEY AND THE COMETS??

[ProperStuff]

@KMartin730 ...it certainly did'nt but you know you whites......you like to dictate to others what you believe......Rock n roll started by blacks and the best rock n roll star was not elvis.....But the great Little Richard.

[KMartin730]

@ProperStuff

"You whites"?? That doesn't sound too "proper".

.Yes, I beleve you are right about Little Richard...

[ProperStuff]

@KMartin730 ..My apologies....you are correct it does not.

[Lmont7881]

U SOUND LIKE A ASSHOLE

[yamahonkawazuki]

@Lmont7881 or an asshole for that matter Eh? lol

[Dusty696969]

@Lmont7881 DId he fart?

[Matthewc3885]

lmao..=[)

[TheMariesprings]

CHUBBY CHECKER HAS A DAUGHTER WHO PLAY PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL I CAN'T REMEMBER THE TEAM BUT HE APPEARED AT HER CAME WHEN SHE PLAYED THESACRAMENTO MONARCHS AND HE STILL LOOKED THE SAME.

THANKS FOR SHARIJNG.

[KMartin730]

I believe parents were more concerned when Elvis Presley came along...not Chubby Checker

[skaha77]

@KMartin730 Bingo!!

[TheDJGrandPa]

Wow, what a horrible version of "Let's Twist"... well, I liked the humor though

[dogterd]

Tom Funk was the First Wigger on Planet Earth.

[meechamaka411]

Why do white people always get mad, 'n start criticizing Hip Hop when U expose the fact that Rock 'N Roll was blatantly stolen??? All we did was recycle our OWN music...the music that we made back then, 'n the music U "covered", profitted off of, 'n was given claim of fame for!!! It's crazy...I mean, we all kno' the story of Chubby Checker, Chuck Berry, Big Joe Turner, 'n the likes...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

[JJH2663]

@meechamaka411 the same reason blacks take credit for what their predecessors accomplished. point is. quit being angry and enjoy the music. ignore the whites ignore the blacks, ignore all colors and pay attention to the human inside.

[meechamaka411]

@JJH2663 U R absolutely right 'n exact, bro...

[willieraye]

this is another exzample of the moron self hating honky, who wants his dauthers to marry black dudes & wants his sons to take it in the ass & be homos

[turtleman1146]

THIS VEDIO IS SO STUPID,I HAD TO TURN IT OFF WHEN THEY STARTED SHIT RAP MUSIC,IN PLAIN ENGLISH..."THIS VIDEO SUCKS"

[Evergr3entree]

@turtleman1146 They were trying to make a point. It looks like these white folks were dancing to Snoop Dogg in the 1950s. lol

[Gwhitebeard]

Chubby Checker was in this movie, and even performed with an all black band. This Video is BULL$HIT!

[WWY2K]

What is the name of the beginning polka song?

[ShellTrek]

What the Hey? This Video started off like a whole-sum 50's Video & then went to a 21st. Century Black Video! ... Crime; Ho's, & sexy Ass Dancing! Getting pretty tired of it! What happened to Videos that mean't something?

[macvatu]

If you love music, you'll love those who make good music and mankind too. Whether its made in Asia, Africa or Europe, who cares....enjoy it and good luck !!

[macvatu]

One thing I like about music is it holds the key to the year and place where I was located when that particular song or music hit the airwaves. Its like Googles in a way, just enter the song title, there it is, straight away, in your face, ....I love it.

[DLRization]

You;re an idiot. Are you doing some civil rights course a community college. This is "nigger music".

[rkaley]

The problem that most of you have is that the things you know are not true. I've seen acts from early 50's, from The Clovers, Hank Ballard and the Midnighters, The Drifters to Buddy Holley, Bill Haley and the Comets, Jerry Lee Lewis and many others, The fact is that there are good performers and bad performers in each race.

[B4BoomersBlockBoy7]

All Music come from Africa and the people of Africa..I won't refer to them as Black,Negro,Colored or other versions. They are The People of the Earth from which all others sprang ! So too , the music and most everything else you can think of !!!

[CalypieAndroid]

without the white man black s will still be banging drums in Africa. NO LOOK ON THE WALLS OF EGYPT, AND SAMBOJUDAISIA blacks is written in Stone, in Asian and Egypt as Gods people who are musicians, playing horns, and everything. NOW White Immigrants, did collaborate and write many songs, only Black people could do serious justice too in America. And immigrants, did help Blacks record themselves. Domestic Whites did not. That is the immigrant relationship with Blacks.

[dionco92]

BLACKS INFLUENCED THE VERY MUSIC IN THIS COUNTRY.. THE TEMPS, FRANKIE L, AND SO ON... IF NON OF EM EXISTED ELVIS WOULDA BEEN MOPPIN THE FLOOR OF SOME DINER.

[cgboomer]

snoop dog should be in jail if not hanging from a tree.

[poppalarge68]

That was sorta like the White version of Soul Train huh..? Pretty damn nice..

[batfighter8]

lol

[seventh82]

@wecryout69 .. Get over it !!!.. lmao...your lame

[seventh82]

@wecryout69 .. Get over it.. thanks in advance..

[lakehousefor2]

Negro music?

[TheParkusEmpire]

Both types of music are often about sex, rap lyrics are are exactly what lyrics for music would have been back then without censorship. Crime was always a problem, it's just white guys tended to run it instead of black guys.

What I really think is a joke is people talking about women's "self esteem" being negatively impacted by the music today. Women were second class citizens in "the old days" when music loved euphemisms, they couldn't even draw cartoons for Disney.

[CarlDuke]

You're a little confused. That guy you call Tom Funk is actually Clay Cole, who after a short singing career became another Dick Clark. And as for replacing Chubby Checker, Checker actually appeared in that same movie, having lead performer status.

[nathanjamesfelix1]

what the fuck did i just wast my time on??

[pannoni1]

Rap and '50s DO NOT MIX! There wasn't even Funk, a necessary influence forRap yet!

[fattyfurlong]

what a load of shit

[getduloh]

what is the point of this video? it makes no sense at all. terrible.

[mach5messenger]

you people have some serious issues.

[hammerogod]

Chubby Checker may have introduced the Twist but Joey Dee and the Starliters took it Nationwide. PEPPERMINT TWIST was the hottest single of 1961 and it pushed Chubby C off the charts. I don't know what that means but facts is facts. And 1961 did NOT look like what this vid portrays. I was there and we laughed our asses off at the Hollywood version of what Teenagers were like. Hollywood movie makers haven't been right about anything more than once or twice in the history of movies.

[zemaraime]

tom funk sucks. I am white but I can say that black people exceptional and very charismatic, what can I say, their voice, their movement, their dance, their bodies wow I am always hypnotized by their beauty

I dont want to discriminate here because every individual is special but that is my personal and very  subjective taste in beauty

[Weidenberg]

@zemaraime

You`re so right. Tom funk is a stupid guy.

[anita3117512]

@zemaraime Thank You!!

[thebighit1]

dude this is very cool vid ty for this post

[MistaChubbz1]

Stealing our music from day one!

[vinyltapelover]

Thankyou! Great post and very funny! For RebPunk 77 and rapsuck1776, Bigotry and stupid survives.Money is power. Producers could "c**k block anyone including "negroes" from ownership of themselves much less music rights. Great economics/finacial control tools..racsim/bigotry. Ergo marketing to blks and whites was a lock back then. Artists like Sam Cooke later learned the power of owning music rights. Current artists, of all genres, got it right. Hypersexualized? A myth. An invalid comment.

[rasco27]

who cares about races???MUSIC IS MUSIC!!!

[MiracleMile90]

@RockNRococo: You got that right, but let's remember that not ALL white people are jealous of 'the others'..............I should know, I'm one of them ;-).

[nublackmusic]

Now thats funny. can't stop laughing ha ha ha ha ha!!!!

[RedRoseDrops20]

Haha it went with snoop dogg too

[Jacobrester]

@RockNRococo Who created the guitar ? Who created the piano ? Who created the synthesizers ? Who created modern horns ?

Your techinique of crediting the black man with every positive thing about music can be turned on you. Without the white mans enginuity ....black men would be banging on a drum and chanting.....like they still do in Africa

[zemaraime]

@Jacobrester

what's wrong with drums and chanting? african music is mind blowing. check the internet before making ignorant comments about the musical intstruments in africa, and accept your opinion as having only subjective  validity. after all we have to calm down our inflated ego about the importance of the western civilization and we have to look to the wisdom of other civilizations.

.

and yes I am ashamed for the exploitative and cocky characteristics of w.civilization.

[Jacobrester]

@zemaraime Ahhh....a fool who tries to attack by taking things out of context...first I didnt say there was anything wrong with drums and chanting.......i referenced them in comparison to guitars, synthesizers, horns etc........and of course you are another guilty white coward

[zemaraime]

@Jacobrester guilty white coward? hahahhahahhahahhah

really ?I never thought myself as a coward. I am proud of myself

I just have the courage to disagree with brainless idiots who have nothing to be proud of themselves than the "superiority" of their race.

and yes we should never forget the slavery, the civil rights movement , the apardheid and the nazis.

[Jacobrester]

@zemaraime Hey you nutless pussy......I never even mentioned race...I posted an excerpt from a magazine discussing the beginning of rock and roll...and you in your coward ass mind felt I was being racist...what a fucking pussy you are

[zemaraime]

@Jacobrester

well I am totally ignoring your insults.

but  when you are saying that :

"Your techinique of crediting the black man with every positive thing about music can be turned on you. Without the white mans enginuity ....black men would be banging on a drum and chanting.....like they still do in Africa"

you have to accept that you are talking in a demeaning racist way.

[Jacobrester]

@zemaraime Let me tell you the difference between you and I....if anyone gets in my face and gives me shit for no reason.....I will take care of it.....with you...if they are black you cower like a sissy.......my response was to a black man who was shooting off the mouth that there would be no modern music without blacks.....which is just stupidity...now go suck black cock you slut

[zemaraime]

@Jacobrester

your words speak for you and reflect your quality

I dont need to insult you because you do it for yourself

[anita3117512]

@zemaraime I doubt that Black people needed Whites to show them how to make music.... just ask Elvis.

[Beebomb101]

Bump Rockooo!! YU got that right!!

[yaniska100]

Dude, you're absolutely right..

if it wasn't for black people, rock n roll wouldn't have existed!

But these days' you talk to the average black kid, they'll tell you..(foolishly).. that Rock & Roll is whiteman music!!

Believe me.. I've heard them say it!

[kiliarblacki]

Do you know the definition of Cell? we Human Being are composed, constituted, made from cell. So why the stupity? why can't you grow up?

[lizardsy]

Yeah, and now we have to suffer with rap and hip hop. They ARE corrupting our kids. Listen to the lyrics of some of the rap.

[CloudMomotang]

@lizardsy hahaha, come on whitefolk! let's twist then drink some punch, play penuckle, then swap wives!

[lizardsy]

Sorry to disappoint you, I don't drink punch, I've never played penuckle, and I've never swapped wives.

[KMartin730]

@CloudMomotang

lol! "penuckle,"..DUH!!

[supreme60s]

@lizardsy your profile pic is fucking disgusting:)

[berkeleyhome]

i was part of the late 60's early 70's generation and we totally appreciated motown and the black sound...it was a great contribution to our generation as a culture.

[foodstamp7007]

Peg paints? Were they painted on?

[rturnerful]

WOW... Women looked like women and Men looked like Men...geee.. what a concept huh? I didn't notice any pants down below the butt cheeks...What's wrong with these people, don't they have fashion sense.. Oh..where's the drive by shooting, Oh wait, Here comes the fucking rap shit now.....ALL SKATE!! N. music, got that right!!

[FutureLaugh]

@rturnerful in the 30s they wore ridiculously huge colorful zoot suits and did drive bys, i guess the new generation isnt cool enough for you

[young1s4u4]

@rturnerful

Yeah, right racist bastard!! Blame it on the black man! Your peeps imitate everything we do; who's the fools? WTF, crime didn't come into existence until the late 80's? Fuckin' uneducated asshole!!! Pick up a damn book or something useful!!

[rhcmlc]

@rturnerful Hey moron, how about the "drive by mugging" you whities used to commit against anyone not pink skinned? Oh yeah and women were looked upon as slaves and less than human.... yeah the 50's were great right? Try that 50's crap now with anyone and prepare yourself for a beat down

[inkey2]

@rhcmlc the 1950s USA compared to the USA "TODAY"......sky rocketing drug use, sky rocketing unemployment, sky rocketing teen pregnancy, sky rocketing crime, a collapsed economy on the verge of a 2nd great depression, loss of status and power in the world, major bank and stock market fraud, global warming, atomic bombs the size of suit cases, terrorism............need I go on?

[rking5757]

I think you may be messing with the old tape just a little

[littlebigbear08]

they did not have rap music in the 50's So please don't be so bias.

[akeel456]

Wow what a title... haha

[Nelson123n]

lol so true

[lorddarkfuture]

your right, though

[elijahendtre]

i love when snoopdog comes on. lol watching a bunch of pricks dancing to him is just funny as hell.

[NowThatsGreat]

kill yaself....

[VAMPiRiTADEGTO]

u know u dance to it too lol

iTS FUNNY THOUGH xD

[Rubiglo]

Sorry all of this is just weird. I don't get it,strange choice of music for the title.

Bad just bad whatever it is.

[BLONDE23REDHEAD]

geesh haters get life of your own and stop being so JEALOUS of other people

YOU RACIST PIPIS!

[doowop47]

thanks for wasting my time..negro wanna bes

[coyotesong]

wtF!!!!!!????????????

[buttdread]

black people are cool dude. they're always coming out with the "new thing". They even almost have their own language!

[CHUKWUNWIKE]

FIRST OF ALL U 2 THE TWO IN THE KKK ACADEMY BETTA CHILL ON THE NEGRO THIS AND NIGGER THAT AND THANKS FOR YOUR INDEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF HIP HOP AND BLACK CULTURE U FASSES!

every one is entitled to their own opinion even inbred red necks like urselves, jus rememba white pop acts are referring back constantly to black culture for their inspiration and influence!

examples:- Justin timberlake, backstreet boys, britney, christina aguilera, amy wine house, daniel merriweather, pussy cat dolls etc.

dick

[elijahendtre]

i have to agree with you on that one. if it wasn't for black culture us white ppl would still be ballroom dancing but plz inbred red necks are only spotted in areas such as west virginia and texas and thanks to this day n age it doesn't necessarily apply to just white ppl either.

[Xegethra]

ballroom is still cool though....

[Hubs88]

Blackies got the natural beat.

[Uitsdo]

how the fuckkkkkkk is the twist sexually explicit?

[terrafirma91]

Today's Hip-Hop isn't music. It's just rhythm with added poetry. It's boring. It has no texture, or melody. It sucks.

[buttdread]

some..yeah

[SentOWNSU]

@terrafirma91 very true and i love rap lol howd i get to this video lol

[MadsNoble]

If you don't like this type of music, or you think it is to "sexual", then listen to the JUNK nowaday. That will make you appreciate the classic music, not garbage we have nowaday!

[KOOLDAVE1953]

I think the word is 'Seizures'....

[nadokid1]

urkel music

[rapsucks1776]

negros have always introduced hypersexualized content to entertainment, whether the vulgarity of hip hop (bitches, ho's, whores, sex culture) or fashion. whites simply capitalized on it b/c they new how to market it to blacks and whites alike. nothing surprising here.

[RebelliousPunk77]

Nigger crap. J/K

[bro1945]

Chubby and the Twist...was not 50's

Try Again

[moy1125]

hilarious

[inkey2]

QUESTION: did he actually go by the name TOM FUNK commercally? or is this a joke?

[oldbiddie]

It wasn't like that. We thought those movies were corny. Music was about love: lost and found. Women were not called the B word or Hos and the N word was never used. I worry for our children now. I am a school teacher. I am aware of what listening to rap has done to our young black males in particular.. and the self-esteem of our young ladies suffers greatly. I did enjoy this video. but the Hollywood version of youth back in the day was really WHACK

[MiracleMile90]

@oldbiddie: Yeah, the '50s certainly weren't all bad..............we did have hot rods and early rock n' roll, after all ;-).

[brkenwing50]

Thank you this was interesting, but you just cant compare nowadays rap junk, to Chubby, or the Coaster, Jimmy Jones, or so many others, that music was just so clean and Elvis was the best. I love all the 50 and 60 music, but I don't like any rap or hip hop, just not the same, I dont even like Christian rap but thank you again

[MadsNoble]

although some artist were different, like one was nicknamed "no show jones" because he was to drunk to prefom. Compare that to the rest of the young artist, none of which had drug problems!

[elmargomt2]

i was a 60's teenbopper....2009 ..still boppin''..groovy man...

[punitcuz]

chocolate musik u mean

[kimmarie801]

I hear the 50's were really wild!

[39RatRodCoupe]

How rude Negro music don't you mean black fella music matey.

[lizardsy]

Ha ha there is nothing wrong with the term Negro. That is a lot better than black IMO. Why is the word Negro offensive? Fucking touchy idiots.

[GlobalAwareness2525]

Negro is a certain language for black.

An ink cartrige I had labled black in different languages one was Niger, I wondered if that's where the term nigger came from, now the white man wants to call them African Americans but not all black people came from Africa so unless you know their decent then you don't really know. I am white as any skin head but I spoke to a white supremist & was proud to tell him I am a mix so suddenly I was a mutt but then that's what America is supposesd to be

[GlobalAwareness2525]

I don't understand how white people in the 20s were so patriotic yet so disrespectful of the black man & Indain, it went in complete opposite of what America stood for. I upset my brother in laws mother when I said White suppremists should go back to Germany. She said many things in German & I looked at her & said, I am refering to white supremists, they do not belong in America

[Jacobrester]

@GlobalAwareness2525 dude........white people dont have a monopoly on racism....I have met racist blacks, whites, indians, mexicans....etc.......you seem obsessed with whtie racism.......you dont have to feel guilty about being white

[GlobalAwareness2525]

In the 20s the Nazi party came over in droves, they trained children as young as 5 to salute the furer & perhaps those people should have been executed because now America has been infiltrated by the Nazi party & so many others. America's freedom for all left the back door wide open and so few are aware of exactly how America functions behind closed doors. Black people were never the enemy, it was the communist America so tried to destroy, now we are ever advancing as any communist country

[kwassagirl]

Just like 'our parents' said Elvis was filthy (with his new brand of music with provocative hips!!!!) and the Beatles would corrupt our minds with their long hair and all that noise!! - I was born 1944 and so group up on these great sounds. Thanks dorton39 for posting.

[Preidosfifty1]

what a rip off tom funk or wutevr is an evil man!

[rojeryeswithaj]

twist is a music/dance starting from 1960

[RussX5Z]

OMG interesting.

[soulssurvivor]

lol

[mimamima2]

If you dont want to die of a heart attack or die fat you better start dancing, now move move all you lazy people this is good for your heart not your mouth
