Hip Hop and black culture is the most imitated culture to ever exist and over time has been attempted by many. Most wanted to sing along and dance to it, but 4 white rappers decided to push their being influenced to the limit and name themselves of all things, “Young Black Teenagers”. The name in itself was and is an attention grab right away, leading into a feeling about them partially shared by the black community and mostly confusion by everyone else. Black culture and the minority will always feel it the most when they aren’t allowed to have something great of their own not be owned or appropriated by the majority culture, because it takes away opportunity and often times misrepresents the agenda and the struggle of being black on planet earth. When the Young Black Teenagers hit the scene they were immediately hit with the tag of stereotyping the young black experience not only by their name, but their use of the name word in interviews ironically to explain how it shouldn’t have the power it does, and by song titles like “tap the bottle”, a song about the drinking and promotion of drinking 40oz beer, “Proud to be black” about being judged for hair texture and sagging pants, and maybe the worst of all time, “Daddy called me nigga cause I liked to rhyme” with the first 4 words repeated throughout the hook. These songs never really hit the mainstream market as hoped, their relation to young black culture was not accepted, and for these reasons. The Failed Cultural Appropriation of YOUNG BLACK TEENAGERS!
