Was Cab calloway Biracial

Answer 1

I cannot say for certain but I suspect so, mainly due to one of his early songs he made about the subject. One of his first songs released in late 1930 was titled "Yaller", which was a derogatory term for light-tone black people. It is a sad song in which he talks about how he felt isolated, not being favored by either race, and falling into a narrow niche in-between.

Answer 2

Cab Calloway was not biracial. He was born on December 25, 1907, in Rochester, New York, to a mother of African American descent and a father of mixed African American and European ancestry. Calloway was a prominent jazz singer and bandleader known for his energetic performances and scat singing style. His contributions to the Harlem Renaissance and the jazz age are widely recognized in American music history.

Answer 3

Well, honey, Cab Calloway was not biracial - he was as Black as the night is dark. This jazz legend was a trailblazer in the music industry, known for his scat singing and energetic performances. So, no need to mix things up here, he was a proud Black man through and through.

Answer 4

No he was not, both parents were very fair skinned Black Americans.
