Bruno Mars found himself caught in a heated debate about cultural appropriation over the weekend after an activist accused the "24K Magic" star of being a culture vulture profiting off of traditionally black music. Another good example of the left destroying itself. EDIT: *Mars --- - The Admiral ... Copied to Clipboard!

Regardless of whether anyone agrees with the cultural appropriation aspect, this:
"What Bruno Mars does, is he takes pre-existing work and he just completely, word-for-word recreates it, extrapolates it," she added. "He does not create it, he does not improve upon it, he does not make it better. He's a karaoke singer, he's a wedding singer, he's the person you hire to do Michael Jackson and Prince covers. Yet Bruno Mars has an Album of the Year Grammy and Prince never won an Album of the Year Grammy." is a fairly accurate statement --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

1. Latinos relationship with African Americans is complicated. I don't like how many feel comfortable saying the n word and adopting urban culture, only to turn around and aggressively remind people that they are not black
2. Plenty of color don't have a problem with mars. --- alt-right is not synonymous with "white supremacist" or "neo-Nazi,"- The Admiral ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yep. Black folks by and large don't give a damn. Hell, this is the first time I've seen anyone complain. His music is extremely popular on both the hip hop stations and the more traditional R&B stations. Also if I'm being honest, he's making closer to traditional style R&B better than the vast majority of so called R&B artists out there. I hope he keeps it up. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
