Online music services recommendations is one vector. Another is just peer to peer recomandation. Eventually someone will listen to that african polyrhythmie, and if it's so good, it will pass it on to his friend. The fact that this is not happening suggests that maybe it's just not so catchy. And something being innovative and original doesn't mean that it should also be popular. Not many want to live in a crazily organic shaped house by the famed architect, not even those who could afford it, most prefer the regular boring rectangular ones. BTW, a long time I saw in a National Geographic a crazy african song, which seems to me to be an african polyrhythmie (not an expert). I think it's an amazing piece of music. But I also see why this has little chance of becoming popular in US, at least in this shape. Maybe some producer could "un-ethnify" it and make it more palatable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R6WnTCpjfM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R6WnTCpjfM You dismiss trap, but I've heard some amazing arabic trap. For some reason, arabic vocals work very well on top of a trap track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0xk1UQYcXs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0xk1UQYcXs https://www.ft.com/content/98c64ce8-8ff1-11e8-9609-3d3b945e78cf https://www.ft.com/content/98c64ce8-8ff1-11e8-9609-3d3b945e7...
