Anyone who says anything else is wrong.
Without Jazz, there's no R&B.
Without R&B, there's no Rock n' Roll
Without Rock n' Roll, there's no Metal, Punk, etc.

Mississippi- Son House and Robert Johnson, Elvis, Afroman (lol), Jimmy Rogers, Fat Possum Records (you're welcome.)

There are two touring rappers, a folk/blues singer, a touring noise rock/ jazz band, a black keys knockoff, and a regional garage/folk label literally on just a few blocks of my completely typical street.

Louisiana objectively speaking

my niggas

New York, California, and other states with big cities obviously but more because people move there than anything else.

Most states that are backwater flyover states have had influential musicians come from them.
