Borislshere 52,616 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I appreciate him for acknowledging that unlike a lot of other artists who’ve done the same and remained quiet on black issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimisaMonster 31,073 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 At least he acknowledged his appropriation of black culture and went from a young Canadian white boy to young wannabe black boy with sagging pants, a million tattoos, and a hip hop sound in his music I wish he wouldn't have but try to learn how often white people try to imitate black people in so many aspects of life yet never claim them as equals...

Thomas P 18,377 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I actually really admire this post. The only time it’s bad to benefit off of black culture is when you don’t acknowledge it and don’t take the time to apply your privilege to do something about the issues you’ll never suffer. EDIT: and also as long as you don’t appropriate it. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 What does profiting off black culture means? He does pop music, he's a skater boy, he seems more inspired by white artists than blacks to me. And because you do r&b doesn't mean you are profiting off a culture. Profiting off a culture would be Bhad Barbie or whatever her name is, or others who change their appearances to look mixed raced, who try to talk a certain way, look a certain way or rap a certain way where it's not natural (Iggy Azalea). Who don't apologize or respect black artists or care about their artistry (Justin Timberlake, Kardashians). Overall though, I don't understand how making r&b, soul, rap music means u are profiting off black culture, would be different if it was somebody white wearing indian garments and singing indian songs because it's anchored in Indian culture, but r&b, soul, rap has now democratized a long time ago! It is now a music genre. But let's remember most music genres was created by black people, rock'n'roll, country music etc... Maybe idgi bcs im European tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says that he's successful for something that was inspired by black culture, he's honoring them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Fudge 8,339 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Let’s also not forget about his racist moments. Not posting here, but a simple YouTube search takes you to his Baby parody....
