Can you explain how you get viking traditions mixed up with African traditions? Rap came from Jamaican toasting, which comes from African storytelling by the lore keepers,the Griot. Rappers are modern day Griots, telling stories

@@lbc1628 They both use storytelling and verbal dexterity to pass on messages and legends. The video say ‘roots,’ and is, in fact, accurate.

@@wrightsmind I'm not saying Viking traditions didn't have lore keepers, what I'm telling you is there is no Scandinavian, Norwegian,or whatever influence on the Roots of rap . There's literally a direct and indirect lineage of rap in every single culture of African descent. Tell me, where does the viking influence come in at? There's not one influence of viking traditions and culture on African cultures. The younger generation might believe that. There may be similarities between the cultures but no influence.

@@lbc1628 I understand your point about the direct lineage of rap music being rooted in African cultures. The use of the word “roots” in the context of Viking Skalds was meant to highlight similarities in storytelling and poetic techniques rather than implying a direct influence on the development of rap. Rap’s true origins are deeply connected to African oral traditions, but it’s interesting to note how different cultures have independently developed similar methods of lyrical expression. The comparison to Skalds is more about recognizing these parallel traditions rather than suggesting a historical influence. Thank you for bringing this important distinction up, I’ll be sure to keep this in mind next time I make a similar video.

@@HenryGonzalez-i3p yes, the footage is AI.
