He finds the influence of Cajun and Creole music, particularly in bilingual songs such as Gene King's 1961 recording of "Little Cajun Girl" but there were other influences in the creation of swamp pop as well.
I consider swamp pop to be a rhythm and blues hybrid that is influenced mainly by New Orleans rhythm and blues, country and western, Cajun and black Creole music, and that is indigenous to southeast Texas and the Acadiana region of south Louisiana.
Cajuns shortly adopted the sounds pioneered by their black Creole neighbors, adding strong Cajun and country and western elements.

 VH1.com : Slim Harpo : Biography
Harpo's first record became a double-sided R&B hit, spawning numerous follow-ups on the "King Bee" theme, but even bigger was "Rainin' in My Heart," which made the Billboard Top 40 pop charts in the summer of 1961.
It was another perfect distillation of Harpo's across-the-board appeal, and was immediately adapted by country, Cajun, and rock & roll musicians; anybody could play it and sound good doing it.
When it came time to release his first single ("I'm a King Bee"), Miller informed him that there was another Harmonica Slim recording on the West Coast, and a new name was needed before the record could come out.
