It isn’t same pose. I hate to tell Beyonce, but her “signature pose” is hardly unique. Like no one has ever stood like that before? Heck, I could stand like that if I wanted to, but I would look ridiculous.
It isn’t the same drum line. They drummers aren’t lined up the same way. The costumes are different. Beyonce’s has some horns in it.
So, we’re at the point that if a black person does something— anything— and a non-black does something similiar —or, in this case, barely similar — then it is “cultural appropriation”? Beyonce — and therefore, all blacks — have a copyright on this? I’m not even sure I would count Beyonce as culture, but that’s probably just the white man in me talking.
By the way, the trombone was invented in Europe. And how about that blonde hair she has?
What makes that "black 'culture?'"
