Bahia blacks are very culturally different from us. They greatly value African ancestors and their religions. We in Rio de Janeiro, especially young people, do not care much about Candomblé and traditions.
Candomblé in Bahia is taken seriously

It is a pity that Rio de Janeiro's black people do not value ancestry. But also, cadomblé is of Nigerian origin. Nigerians have no influence in Rio. We are Angolans. Bahia is very West African.

Bahia is like New Orleans. And Rio de janeiro is like NY, where black folks dont know shit about their roots. LOL
New Orleans black folks are very cultural black.

Yes, Bahia's mainstream culture is heavily Africanised, you can't imagine the state without the Baianas in their traditional white dresses, the music, the carnaval, it's all deeply ingrained in the state.

Most of our black blacks down here migrated from Bahia, and with time they seem to lose their traditional customs, camdomblé is looked down upon, in here, but their music, food and customs are admired.

In Rio Grande do Sul the blacks just view them as gaúcho, no need for black identity:

In Rio de Janeiro people respect Candomblé, only evangelicals thinks it's the devil's thing. Candomblé is not very famous here, but Umbanda. The Negroes of Rio de Janeiro, the youngers, do not care about African traditions. They are busy listening to Pagode, funk and sertanejo universitário music.

And most of the people I know: blacks, whites, browns, etc. They have been a day in umbanda, but they are not part of the religion. Umbanda is btw a religion that many non black folks are into

And at least here in Rio words from Umbanda traditions are very known in our society: Pomba gira, Exu(some folks say exus to offend someone who looks very ugly), oferenda, despacho, iemanjá(this one is very famous)

Negroes in Rio de Janeiro are not very closely linked to African religions and traditions, but we are culturally Cariocas. And being a Carioca, its already has a certain black influence. The Samba, which is the popular rhythm of Rio de Janeiro and has become world famous, has black influence. But today, young people do not like samba.

But still Cariocas goes to "Rodas de sambas" often

Black Cubans as well, probably even more culturally African since many of them speak a Creole African language and use lots of African words in their Spanish. There is an article about it, how an African from I don't know what tribe was able to communicate with the Cuban and they understood each other
