When this style of music was starting to get very popular, let's say in the 30's, there was this rule:
If the artist is white, then it is country.
If the artist is black, then it is blues.
That's really how it was summed up back then, because the styles were simply just the same. Until Elvis started singing both, did the race boundaries change.
