He was never going anyone happy w/ his path in life if he just stayed in California not singing mexican music. He found a path to do it, yes, he did it for his survival as an artist to express himself the way he wanted to express himself. That means he wanted to be adored by Mexican audience that just so happened to be women. Where is the harm in this that he wants to live life like this? He's marketing himself and catering to what he loves..

This world is exploiting, he exploited it back because he saw his value as an entertainer. Now if they make him dance w/ watermelon and eat chicken on stage, that obviously should be shut down. But for now, he's singing Mexican traditional music and getting love for it. It could be worse, he could be in Afghanistan singing on the frontlines hoping he doesn't get shot by the enemy. Yea, I think he made the right choice if he's happy.

He can be happy if he wants. I'm not saying he shouldn't do whatever the fukk he wants with his life.:win:
That doesn't change the fact that its still cultural appropriation :yeshrug:.

If he goes no fukks, neither do I, but lets not pretend this is something that it isn't :coffee:

There are black natives of mexico... he is not one of them.

If a white person came up to me saying that their heart was in Nigeria and they were trying to do everything to become a Nigerian, I would say that they were appropriating my culture. Nigerian is not a race, but we do have several distinct cultures. They weren't born here, they have no roots here, they just saw something they liked and wanted to become it.

I'm not going to lose sleep over this, but its still cultural appropriation, no matter how you look at it.

Nigeria is not a race. If a white person grew up in nigeria more than likely they will pick up the accenr, eat the food and so on. If a white person said they are of the yourba tribe then we are talking a different discussion.

You all are going on the angle of blacks cant be mexicans which is not factual.

Nobody is saying this dude is right, Im saying make valid arguments. The issue is an American approtiating into a random culture , you guys are arguing black people cant be of mexican culture which is false.

I just joined in this page so I assume the bolded isn't directed at me.

I never said blacks cant be Mexicans, I said this breh isn't Mexican. He was not born there, he has no ties there.

And what he's doing is cultural appropiation because he is not mexican

I'm conflicted. I wanna say yes because it is.
It's an interesting question. He seems sincere in his love of the genre and culture. Does not seem to be condescending in any way as far as I can tell.
I think he could help Mexicans revisit their own attitudes towards people of African heritage since it had an active slave trade and history with black folks that was expunged through intermarriage and willfull ignorance.
I wish the young man all the best...

Dapped.

No point in even debating with them, they are making excuses that the man himself didn't even make.

This is cultural appropriation, period.

Hitler dreamed of a jew free world....he had to do things to follow his dream....
(i mean it's a bad example...but )

Hitler? Let's not go to godwin's law. He wanted to entertain mexican women and he couldn't do it in Compton. He made the tough choice of relocating and he learned the language. He isn't putting anyone in a concentration camp...and he isn't forcing anyone to sing w/ him accompanied by bandos and accordions. So.... while it may be unorthodox, he's going to get what he wants because he had a plan and a follow through.

Meanwhile his friends who said he couldn't do it, they look like jackasses and he proved them wrong./ Guess who won?

My life philosophy: If someone objects to your dream or passion and you arent hurting a damn soul, run like hell from that person because that person or group is toxic to you and your life. They are just there to find that moment of joy and passion you have and suck the fukkin life out of it.

Good on this guy for finding what he wants to do so early and taking action to do it. Im sure all his friends are in shock, he's actually doing what he said he was going to do. Guess who won? Give you a hint, it isn't the "friends" who didn't wish him well at the airport when he left for Mexico.

You mean assimilation.

Once again you dont know what you are arguing. This entire thread I said its weird for an American who never grew up in Mexico to want to be mexican, i also included the side note that this isnt c00ning because he acknowledges he is african american ON TOP of their being blacks in mexico who are native. This dude is a lame, but unless he said I hate myself and all blacks he isnt a c00n.

So once again, what are tou even arguing?

Y'all not fooling anyone. If a white boy did this y'all would take no time in shytting all over him and clowning Mexicans in the process. You nikkas ain't slick.

As for the kid. Do your thing breh. Eat.

No.

I mean integration.


A white man in Africa is in a place of priviledge so does not need to adopt their culture to survive...trust me enough buttlicking sambos to accomodate him. Nigeria is a former British Colony he can get away speaking English.

He immigrates and he integrates His place of priviledge will mean he can get away with simply integrating and not assimilating

Assimilation is when it is a question of survival. So some people in the UK are annoyed that Muslims here don't integrate. You can move somewhere and neither integrate or assimilate.

I am saying that this is being a culture vulture then you started talking about black mexicans or whatever :snoop:
