The Africans being black have always been belittled in the society by the Americans. To raise their status and to make the Americans realize that African culture is as rich and colorful as theirs and once the music by the two blends, amazing music is born. The hidden message was that the two nations must cooperate with each other and this is the way, they can become more successful.

The three band members include Justin Robinson, Rhiannon Giddens and Don Flemons. Justin Robinson plays fiddle, jug, banjo and beat box; Rhiannon Giddens is known for fiddle, banjo with five strings and kazoo; and Don Flemons is known for playing kazoo, banjo with four strings, jug, bones, guitar, snare drum and harmonica. The band Carolina Chocolate Drops, combines the old African fiddle and the traditional South Carolina music to give rise to a new form of music.
