Culture Vultures? White Artists Who’ve Been Accused Of “Trying To Be Black”
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
This former member of ‘NSYNC has never been discreet about his affinity for black style and black sounds! But some have accused him in the past of appropriation. Do you agree? Wendy Williams said he gets away with it because he doesn’t try as hard as others. He comes off more genuine:
“I think black people gave Justin Timberlake a pass because Justin Timberlake wasn’t trying so hard. It was just the soulful way that he was. It wasn’t like an affectation of silliness.”
