Rhythm & Blues is a term used to describe the blues-influenced form of music predominantly performed by African-Americans since the late 1930s. The term ‘Rhythm and Blues’ was first introduced into the American lexicon in the late 1940s: The name’s origin was created for use as a musical marketing term by Billboard magazine. In 1949, Billboard magazine reporter Jerry Wexler, (who later went on to become a music producer), created the term for Billboard to designate upbeat popular music performed by African American artists that combined jazz and blues.
