This article is interesting, but it gives no clue about why people
started singing like this.
Well, the most probable cause lies in the early black music brought
by the diaspora to the americas, when black people from africa sung
in their own native languages. When these languages were forgotten,
people continued to sing emulating those sounds.
I found very interesting to see how black music evolved analogically
in the americas. We have an old form of spoken word music here, in
brazil, called "repente" or "embolada", wich is very similar to rap
or to jamaica's toasting. The same thing happened in different places
without any direct contact or direct influence, back in the ol' days.
