VIDEO: BRUNO MARS x CARDI B - FINESSE REMIX

[Twilight]

There are plenty of examples.

Bruno’s just the pied piper bringing black music from the 80s and 90s back and making it pop and accessible to white people without them feeling like it’s a guilty pleasure or they’re trying to be “Black”

It’s carefree urban music by a racially ambiguous non threatening

He’s like a brown skinned cooler Ed sheran
that dances


Bruno is and dancing straight to the bank. His format has been winning for like 5 years now?

While artists just as talented like Omarion who grew up in that era are still trying to do R&B in 2017-18 and can’t even get a hit.

Cp4 is a nice Ep, by the way.

And Entourage over any video Bruno made

Bruno's voice is far superior to Omarion's, which is akin to the nasally whine of an 8 year old. And his range is very limited. That's why I never really got into Omarion. There's your reason as to why Bruno is more successful.

Song makes me wanna get a Gumby cut and hit the dance floor on some Bobby Brown shyt.

wish black artists could sell nostalgia like they allow this nikka to do it.

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

Isn't Bruno Rican?

 

[Renegade47]

Nothing wrong with gettin in the time machine. Dre did it with Parliament and made classic records.

dog if someone black tried to make this shyt they wouldnt push it.

they exploiting our shyt and putting a more friendly face on it to make white people comfortable.

these same type of songs were getting thrashed in the 90s by cacs and not calling it music bruno mars does a bootleg of it and its the greatest thing ever. fukk this bullshyt

I'm not seeing this with Bruno though. Dudes goes out of his way to put on black musicians and writers.

I saw on IG some neo-soul hoe tried putting Bruno in the same category as Justin Beiber, Iggy Azalea, and Ed Sheeran as if every non black artist doing black music is appropriating culture. Like Bruno isn't a mix of multiple underrepresented minority groups himself or like he doesn't employ an all black band, or like he hasn't gone on record to saying he owes his career to black artists.

Anecdotal, but Childish Gambino also just released his most successful album to date with a throwback sound to Parliament/Funkadelic. Kendrick did similar with TPAB. If there were a black POP act akin to Bruno that did the same thing I don't think there would be much problem at all.

do you know/did you actually know white people who were shytting on this kind of music or are you just saying that?

Some of y'all just be makin' shyt up...

"Poison" has been white peoples' favorite black song for like 28 years nshyt... Bobby Brown sold like 7 million records... they loved TLC and all that shyt... then Mike started makin' New Jack shyt and they rocked with that too...

The cacs who were bashin' it in the 90s ain't the same people listenin' to Bruno Mars, lol... them MFs like 60-somethin' years old now. The people rockin' with Mars were kids dancin' to BBD in 1990.

You’re. Supposed. To. Market. Your. Artist. To. Be. A. Star. Wtf is she with a major for? That’s what happens when you have the machine working..... it’s not a bad thing
