Have any of you ever attended a pow-wow? A very similar percussive style - not to mention an often call-and-response type of singing - pre-dates the arrival of Africans in North America. The two groups of cultures, American Indian and African-American, mixed early and heavily once Africans arrived. The syncopation, beats, and rhythm patterns can as easily be traced to Amerindian influence as to African influence.
