Elvis wasn’t depicted as the godfather, no. But what about King?
“My generation’s pop culture bullshit was real, man! This generation’s pop culture bullshit is just pop culture bullshit, man!”
Oh, I see the problem. You don’t know what cultural appropriation is. I thought you had a clue since you were running your mouth. Turns out, you have no idea.
There’s only one way to culturally approriate music as an artist - by claiming to be the inventor of it.
And “American accent?” No, no one is upset because you are using an American accent, honey. Most British types do that when making music for an American audience. It’s because you are specifically imitating a BLACK ATLANTA accent. That’s the problem, Ig, and don’t act like you don’t know.
Besides the fact that you clearly missed the point (white artists appropriating traditionally African American music, especially without credit, which is something Elvis made a career out of doing), have you actually seen any of the movies Elvis did?

While there is a tendency for black people to vote for more moderate and conservative Democrats, the black vote is nowhere near the…

I’m baffled by this myself. My GF says its because way too many of ‘us’ aren’t doing our homework and voting solely on name recognition and who our pastor says to vote for. I don’t totally disagree.
You’re not reading a bit of what I’m saying and just, instead, pretending I’m somehow trying to silence you— something I have never, ever done. I’m telling you why I think you’re wrong for saying Rock should not talk about this. Which was your initial post— that he shouldn’t be saying this. not once did I tell you not…
Your argument: Rock should shut up because he’s being mean to white women by pointing out white women have it easier than black women (which they 100%, absolutely do.)
My argument: No, he shouldn’t shut up.
