blacks created more artistic and intellectual growth.
Jazz was the sound of the 1920s. Jazz of 1920's Harlem was amaizing. Jazz became the "peoples" music to black people and that became one of their own cultural life and tranditions. Jazz was very popular and it became a huge business. Harlem Renaissance music was mostly lived in the clubs. In the early years of Harlem Resassiance, Men like Duke Ellington, Jelly Roll Morton, and Willie "The Lion" Smith were the people who had powerful effects during that period.
