      Sweet. A few years ago I met a 50 year old black lawyer that was into punk and metal big time. I was there working on his computer for the company I worked for at the time. He had punk streaming from Pandora and he and I had a lenghty conversation about old school punk rock/metal. I thought it was prttey cool. Not everyday I run into a black punk/metal head. Rare where I live lol.

      The Hillbillies of largely Scots-Irish origin had a massive influence on what became rock "n' roll and all that followed after with their rockabilly that was essentially revved up country and bluegrass. Listen to the church music of the Appalachia region and the snake handling pentecostal sects in particular. That is primeval rock and roll stripped to it's bare bones. Black America with Gospel and the blues had an undoubted huge impact but rock has always been a musical melting pot drawing on different cultural currents.

    Lyrics
    Oi, oi, oi!
    Walking 'round streets,
    Hand-in-hand with fear (whoa-oh)
    No-one can tell
    What is 'round the bend
    Don't side with the other side,
    'Cause if you do we'll find you (whoa-oh)
    Want to know exactly
    If you classify as friends
    'Cause this is the voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    And you better believe it
    The voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    Come on and fly the flag now
    It's a time when our old people
    Can't walk the streets alone (whoa-oh)
    Fought for this city
    Is this all they get back?
    Risked their lives for Memphis,
    But now Memphis belongs to the troglodytes
    'Bout time that the city went
    And took their city back
    'Cause this is the voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    And you better believe it
    The voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    Come on and fly the flag now
    Now we'll have a go
    At the TV and the papers
    And all the media stupids
    That like to keep us quiet
    Trying to bleed our city,
    They're the leeches of the nation
    We won't give up quickly,
    We're going to stand and fight
    'Cause this is the voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    And you better believe it
    The voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    Come on and fly the flag now
    The voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    And you better believe it
    The voice (the voice),
    The voice (the voice)
    Of Memphis
    Come on Memphis awake now!

    Just in case anyone is interested, and doesn't already know. Two of the very first African - American punk bands were (proto-punk bands) from as far back as 1974, they were Death (from Detroit) and Pure Hell. HR from Bad Brains cites Death as a early influence on him and B Brains early hardcore punk music.
    Also, some other bands Oi! bands with black skinhead members (Omar claimed to be skinhead far as I know RIP Omar) Though I wouldn't call Negro Terror strictly an Oi! band when most of their tunes are basically grind-core.
    Some better and lesser known Oi bands with black skinheads in them.
    - Oxblood (NYC)
    - Templars
    - Outreau
    - United Blood
    - Bad Assets

About same time as reggae but almost always far superior. Look up Hazel Adkins - Skinhead.
