History
Before Blues
Before Africans were brought over to the United States as slaves, they had a very spiritual way of singing. When the African-Americans were freed, they began to explore they're freedom. A few began to invent a style that involved a very simple guitar style, which rapidly became bigger and more popular. Blues could be about anything. A woman, something they enjoy doing, or just, how they're feeling. Many guitarists such as T. Bone Walker and Robert Johnson rapidly gained popularity, and soon, blues became one of the most listened to musical genres ever.
