In sixties UK Jamaican Rudeboys, british Mods and Rudeboys grew up, lived and worked in the same areas and listened to the same music,mostly Ska and Reggae. This spawned the Original Skinhead Culture, which in the Beginning was not racist but apolitical and centered mostly around Football and music. Many Skinheads were Black Jamaican Immigrant Kids and Skinhead Gangs incorporating both, white and black members were not uncommon. Laurel Aitken, musical Idol and known as ''Boss Skinhead'' considered himself a black Skinhead and wrote the eponymous song ''Skinhead'' as a tribute to the scene. Later with the Ska revival and the rise of Hardcore-Punk many second generation Punk Kids adapted a Skinhead-look. Today there are still black people in the Hardcore Punk and traditionalist Ska and Reggae scene who consider themselves Skinheads.
