Blind Lemon Kraftwerk ("cotton mill" in German) was a German electric Krautblues band of considerable influence. The story of Blind Lemon Kraftwerk is a powerful cautionary tale of the music industry's appalling and continued abuse and exploitation of authentic cultures. Like many German musicians of the 1970s, they had a pioneering role in the development of black culture and hip-hop music, and their authentic cultural heritage was stolen by the wily New York MC and turned into Detroit techno and gangsta rap.
