There all fads, EVERYTIME they happen all you'll hear is this is the "end of a civil society" it happens every generation. Hippies, wiggers etc. something will come next. It's just a fad, it always happens.

Elvis Presley took country music and combined it with some songs from Black artists. If you listen to the songs they claim he stole, they are totally different than way he performed them. Many Black singers were ripped off by record companies, Elvis took a lot of the brunt of anger, which he did not deserve.

Agreed 100%. Our American Culture has gone downhill into the level of the ghetto instead of the other way around.

This is nothing new and anybody who follows gangster films should know this.

White people used to go to The Cotton Club, and other spots uptown to , from a safe distance, enjoy certain aspects of "Negro culture".....jazz music,etc....

Even in Harlem, there were clubs reserved especially for white patrons, and the only Black allowed were the service staff and the entertainers.

The Minstrel shows....and their groteque caricatures of souther Black culture..were HUGE draws to white patrons..burnt cork/black face..white actors mocking Black people.

Gangster films covering NYC and the 20s, 30s and 40s..show glimpses into what I'm talking about.

=========================

Elvis ,Rolling Stones, Clapton all DIRECTLY patterned their music and style from poor Southern Black Blues artists.





nothing new at all.....

people gravitate towards and copy whatever they think is "cool"

remember Grand Master B character from "Married With Children"?

So many beautiful aspects of African American and African diaspora culture..and people latch on to crude, vulgar aspects....


I've seen some non Italians mimick and copy FILM cosa nostra characters in the name of "acting Italian".....and even I have to laugh at such stupidity

Didn't mean to bring this thread to a screeching halt by putting things in context. just assumed that everybody was aware of who the direct influences of some the biggest music were.

Jazz and blues performers get awards,honors, "respect" TODAY..but in their day they were called every low down name you can think of by "polite society".




=================================================
Oh and I put up the image of the "grandmaster b" persona that fictional Bud Bundy adopted...



and i read a story today about Daniel Day Lewis' son being a "rapper" now and got a few laughs reading the article."Gabriel Day Lewis aka Gabe Day

http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment...ticle-1.1522113




I DARE you to watch the video for "Gabe Day"'s song "Green auras' and make it to the end without laughing



Here is his father's reaction to the song




===============================================================
don't worry about kids watching tv and trying to imitate entertainers...it's just a phase.nobody wants to be richie cunnigham, everybody wants to be fonzie, the cool one ...these kids can act out their "hood fantasies" from the safety of middle american suburbs ....makes them feel "edgy" and when any real trouble comes....they can just say

"I'm appalled"

and snap out of it

I think there is a difference between white musicians who try to emulate black music- jazz, blues etc. A great sound like Michael McDonald or Michael Bolton and Justin Timberlake. Then there are the ones who like to act like black thugs like M&M, Vanilla Ice and now even Justin Bieber. I was in a McDonalds recently (Where I almost never go) There were 44-5 high school age guys ahead of me two black and three white. All had their baggy pants down below their asses. The white kid had numerous gold pierced ear gold pieces and every other word out of his mouth was "MF" even to the cashier. He was trying to talk in eubonics and when I saw him walking he did that "Thug walk" I nearly laughed my ass off

since this is Gangsterbb

how does this grab you?

even James Caan aka Santino Corleone

had a son who publicly went through this phase

way back in the 90s...there was a signed rap duo called Whooliganz

his son Scott is on the left




*interestingly enough though....it was a phase for Scott, but the other guy in the group is a credible and respected producer in hip hop..Alchemist

That stuff right there is a problem. Most of these kids living in the suburbs who pump this gangster rap shit have never seen a black person outside of BET.

If these kids lived near the hood they woulden't be pumping that rap shit or acting black because they would find blacks don't like being emulated and might throw em a beating for it.

I have personally witnessed my brother ( who is the whitest person you could ever meet) act like a black person. It really upset my mother, she would always say" boy stop acting like your black you don't live in the ghetto."
It reminds me of my childhood when I see people acting like that.

getinthestreets?

hilarious...you're going to make people forget who george carlin was if you pursue a comedic career.

agree with some of what you wrote though.....some of these kids...and apparently some of the posters here have a very limited view of African diaspora culture...as limited as people thinking all Italians are just like the fictional mob guys from films and tv...

Isn't it all a big circle anyways?

1. White kids buy black music and try to act like blacks thus becoming posers.

2. Black rappers try to use the word "mafia" in their lyrics and name themselves after Gotti and Capone, thus trying to imulate the white man.

3. White kids hear this music about "young money, the mafia" and think these blacks are the Mob when they are in fact posers also.

4. Revert to step one.

no there is nothing wrong with a big ass... especially if it makes it's own money. But when it walks around in too tight of clothes and colored bandanas and do- rags over bleached blond European hair and says it "wants a piece" of its ni*gas muneh then it's A BIT too much.
