I'd argue you don't care enough about the history to see further than the blues as some sort of foundational stone of modern music, which very much undermines any serious point you've got. Like the blues, sure, but any of the music you're talking about takes a bit of this, a bit of that and a bit of the other to form itself. Putting the onus on the blues is just a bit... annoying, frankly.
