He dodged the question strong as hell
Every time you put on a pair of shoes, turn on the lights and take a drink from the refrigerator you have to thank Black American inventors as a matter of fact go back and check out Fela Kuti History when he came to America what books did he bring back to Nigeria. there is a historian on Fela's Zombie album go and read what he is says today 2024 on that album we got it in 1977-8 you don't know your own History. and here is a list of black American inventions since he mention education. (stupid)

@@BoosterseatHighh no body want to admit they want to be African American your guys are picking up our self made culture and acting just like us lol
I’m glad you said it because I was definitely thinking the same thing. He said a lot of senseless words without answering the question.
@@BoosterseatHighh yeah I didn't hear an answer either 🤔🤔

If you listened closely, he actually answered the question by saying "people who say that have their own agenda." Knowingly that he was the one who made the statement "Blk Americans have no culture."
His response has the appearance of dodging the question while vaguely answering. So we all should now ask, what is Burna Boy agenda?
Answering that question while dressed like Master P in the late 90's is diabolical work.

He ice skated all across the question, but his grin revealed his true heart. He could care less about them, but will definitely bank off their ‘lack of culture’ regular culture vulture.
Tru
Them africans come here and try to act as if we're below them smh
I’m confused what is black American culture? Did I miss something he said.
This was a typical style of a response when an American challenges an narcissist African male…gaslight after benefiting off our struggle and style.
@@spinrash6000what do you mean? You see it everywhere. It's THE MOST INFLUENTIAL black culture in the world. No competition!
I'm Nigerian living in the US. And I can say black American have a rich culture which all races and tribes have borrowed from, especially in entertainment. Culture, by definition, is a way of life of a group of people . Burna boy is not dressing as Nigerian but a black American. He is the one who needs education .
Does the culture uplift the people? I live in America but the culture does not do much, it locks their minds
@@mbumwaeiluya8680that’s not the point! So you can go on with your disrespectful and dismissive comment!!! If that’s the case we can stereotype Nigerian culture a lot!
@jessicab331 Am not Nigerian,am Zambian and in Africa we Stereotype Nigerians
@@mbumwaeiluya8680 so you're admitting you're the problem?
@vangoghsotherear4114 lol how many trust Nigerians?
I am from east Africa, and I have always thought African Americans have their own culture that other people try to emulate.
Lol you just proved my point
East Africans have more respect for us than West Africans
everyone has a culture.. afterall culture is man made..
I am a 3rd west African(Nigeria) but raised as African American. My father always told me we were from Africa. I’ve always felt a strong connection, can’t wait to visit.
Literally every culture in the world emulates Americans black culture
I’m Nigerian and I can say vividly enough that the whole Nigerian music and swag wouldn’t have happened without the African American culture. Nigeria in the early 80’s had FM2 Lagos, NTA Channel 5, LTV 8 and host of other stations airing Soul Train by Don Cornelius, and later 620 Soul Train by Jeffrey Daniel and lots of musical shows so many artists from rap to hip hop to R&B etc. It was around mid to late 80’s that we had Mike Okri, Ras Kimono, Ortiz Wiliki, Majek Fashek, Blacky, Funmi Adams, Mustapha Amigo etc not forgetting the Break Dance era of the 80’s and every Nigerian dressed like American. Black Beat, Ebony, Jets magazine etc influenced Naija music and swag. The 90’s was the era of new jack swing, the Babyface, Black Streets BBD, Bobby Brown and many others. Burna Boy go back and study Nigerians music the swag, dress etc copied African American till we were able to create our own fusion of music. You are not an expert on African American culture and before talking people’s culture one has to live, mingle with the people from East to West Coast.

As a Nigerian and a fan, I’d say Burna missed an opportunity for reprieve because he did elude to AAs not having a culture. All he needed to do was either expand on what he meant back then or speak in retrospect on an intellectually dense statement that was made and apologize for it.
@@Lighting4aQut well said. he failed on aspects.
ngl if he expanded and explained it too well i think the interview wouldnt get as much promo lol
He chose S.I.G.N language instead.
Had balls when he said it but turned coochie when confronted. Typical!
“Black Americans” don’t have any culture. We have had everything stopped from us. We have no idea where we originate so our customs have been diluted and transformed significantly. “Black” people living in other nations by force have the same issue but they have but their ancestors were able to keep many of the customs that originated from their home due to colonizers keeping their eyes on the prize which was and still is America.
He tap danced around the question like Gregory Hines 😂
That's what the call diplomacy!!!
That wasn't diplomacy. That was him thinking about all the American artist who would cancel working with him if he manned up and owned his words. Instead he punked out and deflected the question. People don't forget what you say.

@@mjones3911 it's called jealousy
Paul Mooney said it best
The problem with all American culture, regardless of race, is that once it becomes mainstream commerce, it's no longer organic culture. People are justing buying into an identity at that point.
He is an artist the average person in Africa won't dress like that. Black American culture " yeah it's good for a moment" but to live on it not really
He said it, “ Culture Vulture. “ For some reason our “ culture “ has an open door policy. Yet no one else’s doors have opened to us YET.

When or where did he say this (
did you actually listen, he means black Americans seek too much attention from the whites, but market in africa with no proper education on culture. So he's trying to build a bridge to let them know more and to feel more African, See it this way, some blacks say their not black Americans but Americans and always fighting for a right that is hardly given. Name one black American that made a name without a white man behind them, Obama?, Jay Z?, Martin Luther king Jr?. If Africa was all glory and independent in gold and america was inferior, I bet y'all will run back to Africa and dump the American citizenship. Y'all after the American dream and sadly many Africans too. If you're a black man, then you're African, take it or leave it.
Yes

I'm South African 🇿🇦 and i think African Americans do have a culture, its just that the world has emulated and exploited it so much, people now refer to it as "Pop Culture". It has literally influenced the whole world and still does till this day.

Let me say this I don’t know a lot about this but I do know African American ancestors before they were slaves and even during that heinous time THEY DANCED EVEN THO THEY WAS SUFFERING. all these jokes about black peoples liking chicken comes from PEOPLE HAVING TO ADAPT TO ALL THEY HAD.

You live under a rock or too stupid while many people where influential to hip hop much credit is given to kool Herc a Jamaican immigrant who was the first major hip hop disc jockey also credit Africa bambaataa an Grandmaster Flash the three were also known as the holy trinity !
Afrobeats isn’t hip hop. It’s it’s own genre mixed with African elemnts like Fuji, African beats/talking drums, and borrows from diasporans. Nigerians own their music.
For context, Burna boy is probably the most heavily African-American influenced Afrobeats musician. He is so sensitive about this question because he gets this criticism from Nigeria as well...even early in his career it was clear and people called it out. It’s common to borrow from America obviously, but he does it the most. He also takes a lot from reggae and Jamaican culture. He’s like the most watered down Afrobeats artist. He is like a Drake equivalent… suitable for the masses.
Black American culture has the most influence out of any black group in the world

I wouldn’t associate half of his attire with Hip-hop, it’s a chain and a designer outfit with a bucket hat lol. Nothing about that screams black Americans
@@avionmerced8946 you must not be a fan of hip hop
Right...because before the creation of hip hop prople were just casually running around in baggy clothing, timbs, bucket hats and chains. 🙄 I really wonder what's behind the attempt to play down the fact that AAs have a distinct style that has been borrowed and copied globally.
Except none of those clothes he's wearing were "invented" by Black Americans. Timberlands were a White working class shoe until hip hop artistes started wearing them. At what point are you going to say "people borrow from us the same way we borrow from others?'
Black Americans dont make Timberland boots, they're just customers.

Our culture looks invisible because it is literally EVERYWHERE.
@AffectionateCardGame-kx1lk , Thank you. Over 90% of America's original music genres were created by African Americans. Music such as Gospel, Ragtime, Blues, Jazz, Country, Boogie Woogie, Rock&Roll, Soul, R&B, Funk, Rap, Hip Hop and Trap music. Our inventions and medical discoveries are used all over the world every day. And our athletes are second to none.
@@kathyw.3146 YOU BETTA PREACH✊🏿💕🙏🏿🌹😤😤😤😤😤
Without black Americans you don’t have rock, pop, hip hop, r&b, blues, country, and the list goes on. So yeah. I think there’s definitely a cultural influence that black Americans have on entertainment. Y’all gotta remember black folk have been here almost as long as Europeans have. Burna Brain should read a book sometime.
Black folks had established civilizations atleast 4,000 before Europeans even existed
Just say African Americans are the fathers of American modern popular music.
@jermaineyoung1214, you north Americans distinguish yourselves, but as a non American, when I see aspects of black American culture, I view it simply as part of American culture overall. Am I mistaken? I genuinely don't know. If black American culture does indeed exist, does white American culture also exist? And if it does, what are some examples?
