These Koreans been recreating black R&B music and copying dances from the 90s to perfection and repackaging it for sale to Asians who never heard It before and think it’s a original music/style/dance:banderas:

They know that era of black music is timeless. And they know what sells yesterday will work today.

They eating good off the Culture while making it new and THEIR culture at the same time :wow:

I hope NEW edition got a check from this as well :hubie:

I don't mind vulturing that much so long as homage is paid.

That IG caption is wrong assuming they've never heard these songs before

Asians listen to 90s R&B more than their own music

Asian Americans yea, but those Koreans barely know any R&B artists

I think Japanese are more students of Black American culture and have knowledge of old R&B, funk, and different genres they respect and maybe emulate because they think it’s different, “cool” or interesting but not because it’ll make them money and fame

I’d say k pop is all about making money and entertainment and then moving on to the next trend or Sound that new and hot. True vultures :banderas:
