An annual awards over here in the UK. It means Music Of Black Origin.
I would assume that is what most people mean when they say black music. Not that white people don't enjoy it, or even play it but that the origin of that type is black culture. Same as one could say Indian music to mean music that is of a style recognised as being of Indian origin.

Not "higher" nor "lower," but "different" would be the word to use here

Only if it's racist to mention the fact that different races exist. Which seems to be the US view.

I agree with some of what you say, but I think you're assuming more than is warranted.
