I've lived in towns where Mexicans made up more than 50% of the population my entire life. So i know too and they do. Not all of them of course.except the mexicans don't dress in the sombreros and pointy shoes like that. Thats like people saying we still dress down in fubu and phat farm. Believe me, I know. I was in arizona and new mexico for 5 years
Like with the Italians the fascination with their culture was rooted in the Italian mob but you had rappers dressing up like Italian mobsters.
The fascination with Mexicans is purely because they are who you go to to get it cheaper.
The mexican drug dealers(just like italians) dressed in a manner that let you know they were pushing.
Italians: Gaudy jewelry, track suits, and Italian suits.
Mexicans: Gaudy jewelry, expensive alligator and ostrich boots, and expensive cowboy hats.
When you see blacks impersonation mexicans by dressing up like them the way they did Italians, then you can say they want to be mexican.
