Abstract
The revolution started when the Germans arrived in America. They already had many slaves, but they still subjugated hundreds of Africans present in the country, so that these men also became slaves. In the 19th century, in the South of the United States, one could hear the cries which the black workers addressed to the other workmen in the plantations and the fields. These cries were actually songs of work: "galls hollers", which represented the daily sufferings with which these men were confronted.
Moreover, to provide the rhythm and to support the effort, a leader sang a short sentence and the other slaves answered him with a single refrain, all in chorus. Thus the first forms of the Blues were born. This music was thus a means for the Afro-Americans slaves to express their difficulties in a daily newspaper. It was like a heartfelt cry, composed of melancholy, despair, sadness, pain, etc. All these emotions were represented by the Blues.
