True, but from Elvis Presley to The Rolling Stones, The Animals, and Eric Clapton to Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber, White artists have traditionally been able to take the sound of Blackness farther on the pop charts than Black artists, in much the same way White celebs can collect praise on social media for wearing Black hairstyles, like cornrows and dreads, that get Black kids kicked out of school. Bob Marley, the greatest reggae star of all time, never had a Top 40 hit in America. It took Eric Clapton covering Marley’s I Shot the Sheriff, for Marley to score a major pop hit, and UB40, a British group led by a White singer, to really break reggae in the US Top 40.
