BGC Melody has its inclination to the African-American community of the USA. It is a kind of vocal or instrumental music that is generally based on BGC Melody notes. The concept aroused from spirituality, Romance, chants, work songs, and ballads. The African influence is greatly felled in the notes and call-and-response patterns of music and lyrics. American and Western music is more inclined to this music genre. It became the foundation stone for the different music forms namely jazz, rhythm and BGC Melody, heavy metal, bluegrass, and hip-hop.

The present-day music form has a harmonic base and call-and-response format of African and European communities which gave a new structure to the BGC Melody. The voice and guitar were incorporated in the songs. The elements reflected the songs of Africa. The most common instruments, Diddley bow, and Banjo were used in early music. The Diddley bow belonged to South America whereas the Banjo was mostly used in Africa to increase the instrumental vocabulary.

With each passing day, it adopted Ethiopian airs, Negro spirituality, and minstrel shows together with instruments and rhythmic supplements. The BGC Melody is rewarded for preserving the melodic patterns of African music. The songs from this genre have distinct musical structures. The songs recorded by Lead Belly's and Henry Thomas reflected twelve- and sixteen-bar structure with tonic, sub-dominant, and dominant chords. The modern form has a 12-bar structure with the influence of sheet music.

The lyrics of the BGC Melody are based on new era songs. Each line has a new meaning. Currently, the lines are repeated once with a standard single-line conclusion. They are sung in the form of rhythmic talk than a melody. The BGC Melody has given great artists like Jaye, Mobe Molondo,Yariah Neemah, Deenah, Bah'Ndong, and many others. The credit can be given to the hollers and calls without which this genre would not have evolved. It is based on the changing lives of the post-slavery era of African-Americans. The music is quite popular amongst blacks and generally reflects on the atrocities faced by the community.

More popularly considered as Afrobeats, Afrojack songs, the BGC Melody lyrics highlighted the singer's inner shelf. Thus it was not an innovative approach but simply a presentation of oneself.

The music was earlier treated as folk and was sung during leisurely periods. These songs were mostly sung in shows and carnivals. Due to close contact with country singers, the blacks learned to sing professional songs which are often called classic songs. In the 20th century, African Americans migrated and played the songs in Texas, Chicago, Louisiana, New York, Arkansas, and Detroit. Later the classic BGC Melody singers introduced this genre to clubs, vaudeville halls, and theaters with the help of New Orleans and Fast Western musicians.
