It's rude if you are saying it to a black person because you thought/assume they would know XYZ artist since they are black.

Does it ever happen to you? Do you ever listen to a song and think the singer is white/black and find out otherwise?


Never thought they were Black or Jamaican.

URG, he's so hot.

Anyway, I love Sam Smith. He has a song that sounds like old school "gospel house" called Latch. It does sound like a black dude.

Iggy Azalea has (really) good songs but honestly her rapping voice is terrible. It's fake and affected and annoying.


He doesn't sound black. He's just singing a style of music that is associated with black people. There's a difference.

Holy shit. I though I was up on pop culture. I've never heard the song in the OP (which is awful BTW).

What's ur point


White artists singing in a "black style" is considered a different genre. Are you this dense IRL?

Maybe, but I can't recall a specific instance of it.

But I do remember back in the olden days when Can't Touch This came out I envisioned MC Hammer as being a VERY large black guy and was shocked to see him be a skinny guy who could dance.

this song is so f'ing stupid. Some random guy walks up to your house and asks you if he can marry your daughter. What the f do you expect them to say? Oh yes please, take her away, you look like a responsible guy with your leather jacket and ridiculous hair. Hey, here's my life savings use it for the wedding. Why don't you go ahead and f..k my wife too. I wouldn't want to be rude.?

Back in the 80s we all thought Rick Astley was black, judging by his voice.
