Coon songs were a genre of music that presented a stereotype of black people. They were popular in the United States and Australia from around 1880 to 1920, though the earliest such songs date from minstrel shows as far back as 1848, when they were not yet identified with "coon" epithet. The genre became extremely popular, with white and black men giving performances in blackface and making recordings. Women known as coon shouters also gained popularity in the genre.

  • Le Coon song (chansons de nègre, au sens péjoratif du terme) était un genre de musique populaire aux États-Unis entre les années 1880 et 1920, qui présentait une image admise à l'époque mais considérée aujourd'hui comme raciste, dégradante et stéréotypée des noirs américains. Les chansons étaient chantées par des blancs au visage noirci mais il y eut des chanteurs noirs comme Bob Cole. (fr)
  • Il coon song fu un genere musicale utilizzato fra la fine dell'Ottocento e i primi anni del Novecento negli Stati Uniti prevalentemente negli spettacoli Minstrel show. In essi il nero, chiamato col nomignolo dispregiativo coon, veniva presentato con derisione ed affetto: da una parte si pretendeva che ogni nero fosse a prescindere un omaccione tonto e buono di cuore, dall'altra lo si rappresentava dandy, che tentava invano di imitare il modo di vestire dei bianchi risultando goffo e impacciato.
