LGAte 543 Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I'm really at an interesting point here because I can't decide how I feel about this. I will say, firstly, this post from Pop Crave is really really really poorly being framed in bad context. He did NOT say he got blacker in the sense of anything related to his actual skin color, vibe, or race. This post from Pop Crave is intentionally baiting for likes and clicks. If you go watch the video, he was literally being asked about retreating into the safety net of whiteness. Historically white artists have used black culture to leverage popularity and then when they get success, they dip out on the culture. Honestly this is one of those weird situations where it is a catch 22 for white people. I'm not saying he should have worded it that way and his PR team should have prepared him better. But in all seriousness I don't think he was saying he literally thinks he is blacker. He meant it more like "they wanted me to veer into whiteness now that I'm successful, but I chose to align even more so with black culture." It's kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. This is one of those rare times I think if you read between the lines and actually understand where he is coming from, he meant that he wanted to be more solid with black people- not that he wanted to use them for money and just give them no flowers. Matter fact, he was saying the opposite and explicitly stating he thinks black people make better music in America. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matter fact, he was saying the opposite and explicitly stating he thinks black people make better music in America. I think most people understand what he was trying to say. The problem is that saying something like "I got Blacker," in pretty much any context, is problematic and weird. He can still love and appreciate Black culture & music, but he definitely should've chosen his words more carefully.
