> consumers of pop culture don't care about black people. They want to be entertained by the idea of black people.
I was just reading a book and a part of it was talking about that exact premise in relation to Hip Hop. He was saying that of the current iteration of mainstream Hip Hop (n*ggas, cash, booty, thuglife) - 80% of it is purchased by young white people. The premise of the author's argument is just that - this Hip Hop fed to us on the radio waves is made for the entertainment of white people who are enthusiastic at the idea that that's what Black culture actually is.
