Every single day I come on here and see.... ppl heavily influenced by Black AMERICAN culture. I will emphasize the American. Black Americans are the standard for everyone else. Including blacks in the diaspora.
For instance I see ppl argue about UK grime rap.... the key word here is rap everything about it is flattery. WE did that. They are copying the art style that came out of New York. America. Black people. Everything is some type of imitation.
Everything you see has a connection to Black America. We run the cultural world. Everyone wants to be us. From America to the UK to Africa to the islands. The backwards caps, the jeans, the hoodies. WE DID THAT.
I often see videos and pics of whites in hoodies and caps and using AAVE. You know what AAVE means? African- AMERICAN vernacular baby.
The Black American is the most disrespected and disenfranchised blacks in history and yet EVERYONE wants to be us. But they don’t want to be us.
In conclusion... the swag y’all stealing? We was born with it from years of having to create OUR OWN CULTURE after being both ripped from and disowned by our original ppl. And now suddenly it’s in high demand. Give. Us. Our. Flowers.
Lol! Look at the diaspora being mad. Look at yourself. Look at the things you do and say and tell me none of it is inspired by Black America. I rest my got damn case.
While copying OUR culture. Our art form. You can look literally anywhere rn and see the influence of black American culture. From shows to clothes to speech. It’s us!
