@rayzofmelanin Yea I know. I addressed that as well. I just didn't know what your thoughts were on that standpoint as well so I just included it as well.

@StarrCinema I agree that not everyone who isn't black and gets into hip-hop is a racist. I was saying him specifically because of the skin thing, the braids, him calling himself jungle boy/the stage name tarzzan in the first place, and him mumbling something that sounded like the n-word when singing a carti verse/song that had no n word in the lyrics

But yeah I just don’t think every person influenced by Black music/fashion is automatically engaging in malicious caricature. Hip-hop is global now, and a lot of artists outside the West grow up consuming it genuinely. The problem is that industries often commercialize the aesthetic without enough cultural understanding behind it.
            
            At the end of the day, I think we actually agree on more than we disagree on. We both acknowledge that K-pop has a complicated relationship with Black culture and that some concepts can cross into uncomfortable territory. I just personally think precision in language matters because calling someone “racist” is a much heavier accusation than saying they’re appropriative, ignorant, or participating in an industry trend that commodifies Black aesthetics.

It stated in the disclaimer i saw that they’re getting rid of “category” which wasn’t broad at all and not as helpful. I actually like the story type feature bc it’s more in depth for target audiences/specifics. So it prevents us from using hashtags as well to add the extra context of the type of story we’re writing. It makes a world of a difference. I actually used it and it had all the information i needed that pertains to my books.
