AGAIN..THIS HAPPENED AGAIN

now before yall say i am...im not bashing the group i dont care about them this is about the community in whole...

when are yall gonna stop acting like kpop doesnt thrive on black culture...

ex: dia made a song named woowoo in 2018 which sounds familiar to the popular song superlove by timashe in 2016...WHICH DIA SAMPLED AND USED IN THEIR SONG... then charli xcx used the superlove sample now kpop fans think she copied dia and she prob dont even know who they are...kpop lives off of black people just like everyone else....and this is not even a race thing thats not what im mad about...its just the fact that this has happened before and yall continuously ignore it and think yall favs are all orginal

and before yall say im tryna be problematic...im not im simply stating my opinion like yall do everyday

Quote from crystalblues

Let's not blame the girls of Dia though, they have been begging for creative control for years only for their company to smack their hands.

yeah ofc im not blaming Dia..im just talking aboit how some of the kpop community fails to see that kpop would fail if it wasnt for black culture...ESPECIALLY some of these “rappers” yall love to praise

Two things nobody really cares about today.

Quote from minigee

Maybe they are, maybe the aren't

yeah i not saying everything is...its just ridiculous to me that yall think EVERYTHING is original when in reality some of these kpop artist are using recycled beats

Music plagiarism isn't specific to K-pop, nor is it exclusively from black people.

thats not what i said...i just said that yall act like everyone copies kpop which isnt true-

I don't think that's a good example, but I do think that KPOP thrives and profits off of black culture. Lee Sooman literally admitted that people like Michael Jackson inspired him to start the idol industry. AAlso use aspects of our culture like box braids, durags, cornrows, etc for the sake of looking "cool" and "exotic"

yeah and the “rappers” always say ppl like snoop dog, 50 cent, nate dogg, etc...have all i spored them to rap..

also yeah i couldve used a better example to get my point across but i had seen something that pertains to this and it made me a little mad

Because of clickbait title. Props to you.

you could’ve decided to ignore it yet you didnt so...props to you for showing you care

Quote from crystalblues

Oh I fully notice it, I grew up in Greensburg between Pittsburgh and Cleveland. I grew up around black culture and Asian culture. Which is why I am so engrossed in it even though, I myself am Italian/Cherokee Native America (I also adore my own culture). I agree when people do not give credit for their inspirations it is a big issue. As a first gen fan, I have noticed as the generations have gone on the companies have stopped giving credit. Swi.t gave credit for their debut video taking inspo from No Scrubs, HOT admitted taking inspiration from Blackstreet and others, but now it seems only the idols considered "outspoken and out of line" by their companies like GOT7, Dreamcatcher, Wonder Girls, ITZY, CLC, G-IDLE, Seventeen and some others, are willing to speak up and give credit when their company doesn't, which is very ballsy considering how companies treat some of them.

yeah it still amazes me how kpop idols are treated...they deadass slaves but besides that i completely agree...and the fun y thing is...im not gonna say why they stopped giving credit bc someone gonna be mad and it wont be me...but do you understand what im trying to say-

Quote from omnimorphism

It isn't specific to K-pop. The current music industry is largely inspired by and derived from originally black genres: Jazz, Blues, Rhythm and Blues, Black Gospel, Soul, Funk, Hip-Hop, etc.

I don't see a problem with that.

never said it was a issue...i just said kpop wouldnt be where it is now if it wasnt for black creativity-
