A culture vulture is someone who goes into someone else's culture without respect, having a racist history against the people in that culture, and having a bunch racist fans that only listen to them and no one else in the culture. Also, if you go into someone else's culture, copy a style from it, and you're the only one allowed to profit off of it, while the Black artists can't make that music anymore, you're a culture vulture.

Jon B is a strange musician because black industy him into the fold as a white artist and marketed him to black people. Babyface was his mentor and produced most of his albums I believe

So he’s more so of an industry plant vs a culture vulture imo

Still don’t respect him tho
