Why is it that "white" and "black" seems to pertain only to Americans? There are "white" and "black" people in many places outside the U.S.
What about Seal, he's black, but also from England, (I think), like someone else pointed out, it's not the skin color, but rather where you live that might affect how and what kind of music you listen to.
I'm Mexican-American, born and raised in America, but I grew up in a primarily "white" neighborhood, I listen to rock more than any other genre of music.
Skin color had nothing to do with my musical preferences, it was more where I grew up, that did.
Before I got into U2, I was mostly into grunge and pop. (yes I know, odd bedfellows).
I know a 'black' guy from Ireland, his favorite band is Vertical Horizon, likes U2 here and there (not quite the fan like I am), Matchbox 20, mostly modern rock.
Wasn't Thin Lizzy's lead singer was black? Didn't Big Country have a black bass player. Think Simple Minds had a black bassist too.
What about Living Colour?
Eminem, Vanilla Ice, (he wasn't doing rock anyway).
