Iggy is a weird case.
I hadn't seen her, but I heard her hit song (idk title) fancy?
I assumed it was a black girl singing & still thought it strange.
Why, you ask?
There's a part in the chorus when she sings 'who dat, who dat?'
Okay. In the old Charlie Chan movies, he had a black driver.
I can't remember his name either, but he was super funny.
Problem is/was, it was all minstrel grade stereotype humor.
For instance: if he got scared by a noise in the graveyard (or wherever) his eyes would bulge out & he would cry "Who Dat!?"
Then usually run off screaming "Mistah Chan, Mistah Chan".
Now, had it been an African American rapper, it'd be a strange enough choice.
The fact that it is being done by a very white girl, whith almost pitch perfect mimicry, & she raps in Ebonics.
Just really interesting to me. I've never heard anyone white or black, criticize it.
Maybe because only old folks like me even remember Charlie Chan

That actually rings a bell, maybe something I'd seen as a kid. I'll now think of that next time I hear her song
Does it make it stranger that she's Australian?

Yep, there's a Waccka Flacka, Chief Kief, Lil Boosie, Lil Webbie, Lil Scrappy, Lil D-ck, Yung Thug...put Lil or Yung in front of any noun, and there is probably a rapper with that name. One of my relatives is a wannabe rapper, he calls himself Lucci Weezy. All I can do is sigh and shake my head

I love an old white dude pretending to be Chinese.
He was in Quo Vadis, movie from the 50's about Nero. That plus 1,000,000 other things.
