Dude, were you this upset when Elvis stole Hound Dog? It happens both ways, and music as a whole benefits from the blending.
However it is a big topic among leftists right now, so I was just pointing out the hypocrisy of it all.
Example: Breaking Down Cultural Appropriation In Pop Music And More
there’s been an ongoing trend in the music industry of appropriating cultures. What started with Miley Cyrus twerking, Australian Iggy Azalea rapping with the fakest southern-black accent I’ve ever heard, and Vanessa Hudgens wearing bindis to Coachella has now become a trend that doesn’t look like it has an ending-point. If we were all equal and that culture's members were not mocked, ostracized and objectified for wearing the same things, then it would be okay. But, unfortunately, that’s not the case.
The people of these adapted cultures are homogenized when someone not from that culture pettily embraces various elements from it. The history and significance of those elements are stripped away, leaving something that popular chain stores make in mass-production. No one is appreciating the culture by wearing this stuff; in fact they are doing anything but.
Blah, blah, blah.
BTW: It's weird that the broken character thing is still happening. We had FR work fine for about 20 years, and suddenly quote marks create fugly weirdness. I don't get it.
Hound Dog was written by two white Jewish guys.
