No tf it’s not he’s ignorant af, have you seen one of his videos!? That is not the culture I want to represent. I don’t support rappers like Nicki Minaj or anybody else he keeps on his channel, don’t wear baggy clothes and yell and scream and make scenes every where I go because I need to feel seen! That’s not black culture, that’s ignorant asf!
Black culture is American culture but not all of it exists around the world like gang violence, single mom, drug abuse, broken English , braids (which isn’t black American culture but African)
@spokenliar5909, None of those are new conditions created by Black culture. Most of those thing exist AROUND THE WORLD in some forms. English is not spoken around the world. All Africans descendants, who had enslavers from the U.K., speak a combination of the enslavers English and their enslaved African ancestors translation of a language that was foreign and beaten into them. Oddly enough, even the "broken English" and AAVE is COPIED outside of the U.S. Our AFRICAN ANCESTORS came here in braids and we retained that part of our African culture. Braids were used as maps for escaping enslaved African descendants. Clearly, you have not been any further than where you live, nor do you read books or use the internet for research. Both are a low cost panacea for ignorance. On the other hand, stupidity is a choice that one makes to remain in spite of available facts.
@@spokentruth5909 Name a deviant behavior and for sure white Americans indulge in ALL of those behaviors. They are the masters of $exuall¥ deviant behaviors along with: Murder ( especially mass murders and serial killings), rape, robbery, drug trafficking, drug abuse, single motherhood, absent fathers, embezzlement just to name a few. Did you know the first U.S . school shooter was a teenaged white girl? She shot up the elementary school across the street from her house because it was Monday. You are worried about splinters in the eyes of black people instead of the plank blinding in the eyes of the white community worldwide.
I think its pretty funny that men like kai present every ignorant stereotype of being loud and extra etc and then say blk americans are uncultured😂 like wtf
To debunk this misconception, let's clarify that African culture encompasses various elements such as music, language, religion, art, literature, food, and social norms. Specifically, genres like jazz and hip hop, African American Vernacular English (AAVE), activism, fashion trends, and community norms are aspects of African American culture that have significantly impacted global culture. As an African in the diaspora I respect the African American culture, especially the music, food & activism
The problem is the black Americans have refused to acknowledge the new force driving out their culture and changing history. It is sad that truth is always received with negative energy among black Americans. The black Americans are not moving forward. Africans are slowly getting better than black Americans. This mentality of victim is killing these people. You can't the past we should learn to live and achieve greatness. A society that calm it have culture it must defend itself. But with the black Americans it a whole different story.
Respect! But we are not Africans or African American. We are Foundational Black Americans. African American incorporated all of the diaspora. So that's how you delineate us.
It's funny. I have been hearing this a lot from people from the Diaspora, which is why a lot blk Americans are changing up and becoming American first.
These ppl been like this. Over 90% of Americans never had to deal with mass generational immigration from. But they have ALWAYS been like this. Carribean/Jamicans call us yanks as a derogatory.
I fully agree with both of your sentiments. However, Alex, I adore your energy because we're on the same page. Black American culture is undeniably authentic, widespread, and the blueprint; it can never be erased.
It's crazy that people run from their countries to America and try to tell Black Americans what they "need to do or fix this or that" in their homeland when alot of these people aren't fixing anything in their own homelands or dealing with crime or nothing. They're just running somewhere else
🤦🏾♂️ my friend is Jamaican and she made a similar comment in passing one day and I had to check her asz. She’s a second gen Jamaican born and raised in Florida and cosplays everything about black Americans even her gf is a black American. It tripped me out
Don't forget the gullah geechees of South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia. Most people would consider them Caribbean after hearing their accent but they'll be quick to tell you they not. They're also the ones who started the slave rebellion in the u.s folks say it was the Haitians when in all actuality it was the gullah geechee tribe that still exist and are thriving today. Most of us black americans get our dialect and superstitions from that group of black Americans. So I agree we're heavily diverse💯
This isn't even a debate. We have the most influential culture ever. Our Music, inventions, style, language,food and cultural traditions are constantly imitated around the world. We inspire people to stand up for themselves and fight for what is right. We are the moral compass of the world.
The ignorance of outsiders is insane! They can see their own "culture" even by tribe but can't see the cultural delineations of Americans when they get here because they indulge in the commercialized aspects of Black American culture. Do Asian-Americans have culture? Do Mexican-Americans have culture? Italian-Americans? Black American cultural traditions are not only documented but regionally diverse, and integrated into our everyday.
@@spokentruth5909The facts that you believe that the DNA test trumps what a birth certificate AND what an ancestor says is insane. Most of us have been told who we are. If you are “black” American. It’s time to wake up sweetie. Smell the brew… before you get lost in the sauce.
Culture can be defined as all the ways of life including arts, beliefs and institutions of a population that are passed down from generation to generation. Culture has been called "the way of life for an entire society." As such, it includes codes of manners, dress, language, religion, rituals, art. This definition checks the box for all Black Americans.
Honestly, Kai says and does wild stuff to disrespect black people all the time. To the point of black American saying crazy stuff all the time that may be true, but a lot of these people who get famous wouldn't be famous unless black Americans support them so at the end of the day, we may say what we say but but we keep it 100 with people that look like us. Even in this video he still bigged Kai up for the platform that he has while giving criticism that's well-deserved. It's the people that are not from America that have the same skin complexion that say and do and turn on their own people there's too many receipts to prove it.
It's a fact as much as you may not like it. I was never ignorant enough to claim somebody else's culture and then disrespect it and say that they have no culture.

Nothing wrong with embracing other cultures. I know the world fucks with Jamaican and American culture including other cultures because people been exposed to it through commercial and underground music and movies and tourism. So you can’t hate when the world embraces it or chooses not to embrace it or agrees or disagrees with some aspects. Sometimes it’s not meant as disrespectful but just a difference ❤
When an African says culture we mean first identity so like from ethnic group then tribe then clan. 2, then rites of passage like naming ceremony rites, puberty rites, marriage ceremony rites, funeral rites 3, family structure, man being the head of the house, wife then children, and the extended family structure, when we say family it means extended family the whole clan 4, religion and traditions local rulers and systems 5, language 6, Art,clothing, literature,music 7, food From an Africans perspective black Americans have a culture but isnt as deep as we do but its no fault of theirs though, as to whether its a positive culture or not is another discussion all together but most of the time when Africans are saying you dont have a culture they maybe thinking positive culture something you can actively pass on to younger generation. I dont know why a Caribbean would say that though.
This is very ignorant, the lady claims wigs came from black Americans. Wigs go back as far as Egyptian pyramids, this lady needs to do some research about Africa. This level of ignorance is not healthy.
Thank you. I was thinking the same thing. She made me itch listening to her. She sounds so ignorant about culture and where her culture derived from. Speaking all while wearing a wig/weave. (Someone else's hair) And I think she believes she is intelligent. SMH. I want explain to her how she sounds ignorant, but I know it's a waste of time.
Stop being ignorant. You're forced to nitpick one discrepancy 😢based on semantics in a whole podcast because you couldn't deny the overarching point. She obviously is referring to the style of wigs/hairstyles that can now be found everywhere in the Diaspora originated in America. Kai's whole platform is based off a subset of Black American culture. Her point stands as true and valid.
Just didn't respond to the entire podcast, just one bit that I found very outrageous. Entire podcast is just silly given that it doesn't differentiate between "uncultured" and "having no culture".
As a blk American i understand that i am of African descent. But i am not African. Which is a confusing fact. sure if i do a 23 and me I'm pretty sure you'll find dna from people from the mother land. But i am not African. I am an American first. My family bloodline as many others starts here in America. This is not only my home but its the country I hail from. I am not from Africa im from America. When we leave this country no matter the race creed or color. As soon as we open our mouths and speak. They will say ahh you're an American not African American or white American or Latin American. Simply Americans. Only here amongst people born in this country. Do we place each other in boxes. Which causes even more separation and divide. Whats meant to bring us together ultimately is the same thing that divides us Americans as a whole needs to wake up. We're all in this together...
This girl isn’t exactly in the right it’s hard to assimilate into black American culture when you are not black because a huge part of this culture is about being black and our features . That’s why it’s different for other people.
What gets me the people from the islands don’t stop to think it’s 44 million Black Americans in the US that’s just a few million less than the whole country of the UK. It’s not even Mathematically possible for all of us to be alike. We have 4 kids with the same DNA and all of them are so different. They think we are all Rappers and Athletes we have doctors, lawyers, engineers, scientists, astronauts, pilots ect.. when I hear people say the things they say it’s always immigrants that is taking advantage of our culture and struggles because without us they wouldn’t even be allowed in our country!!
Cenat was wrong for that. No diaspora war please. Strength in pan-africanism, conscious people around the world think like this. Unified not uniform. Black American culture is real and strong. And there has always been a cultural cross pollination through out the diaspora. Influence goes back and forth. Not the same as appropriation, nobody is claiming to be boss. Don't take the bait. America also misrepresents black culture and plays in stereotypes, maybe the boy was criticizing thoses stereotypes (like conscious black Americans do)??
@@Craig-pm2kc It's elements used to be part of the social studies curriculum in many black countries but I guess not everyone sees the big picture. Have to continue to educate because there are so many counter narratives out there about individual advancement. Ideally, an elder ( a wise one) would have set Cenat straight before he could start addressing the world.
@sheli5483 Have you explained any of this to your fellow Africans? It seems like it's the responsibility of Black Americans to embrace everyone else only to be disrespected when it's over?
Diaspora wars are stupid as hell. We all benefitted from African American culture. But let's not forget that Caribbean culture had an impact on African American culture too. Without Marcus Garvey, there wouldn't be a Malcolm X, without Jamaica, there would be no hip hop. We are all brothers and sisters. Unite
Hip Hop started with the Black Spades in 1971 in😊 the Bronx. The Black Spades were all Black Americans. Yes, 3 yrs later, Kool Herc and other immigrants made contributions to Hip Hop, just as the rest of the world ha, but the origins of Hip Hop are solely Black American. Malcolm X 100% exists without Marcus Garvey, but Garvey doesn't exist if Jamaicans don't kick his movement out of the country and Garvey is forced to move to Harlem. Harlem/Black Americans kicked off Marcus Garvey's movement, because Jamaicans were too timid to make his movement happen.
Definition of culture might be needed. I am mindful it might extended from family, community, church, work, city, village, country and continent. Some maybe exported and imported and in some case is diluted overtime.
I dont think that when anyone says this (including Kai) they mean that FBA, dont have culture. Most people recognize the richness in FBA culture. However, when the conversion goes into how connected FBA are to their roots, most either arent at all, or are working their way towards it. Living in the US, as a non-white person, theres alot of assimilation that most non- white people do to survive & we all know how long FBA has had to do that (mostly out of obvious horrible historical circumstances). Black people in the Caribbean & in africa are the majority in their countries, so although colonization & imperialism has affected the whole diaspora in very similar ways, there's also many differences & that's where the discord & disconnect comes from.
@myathemango2936 So many African countries were created very recently. And alot of these tribes are new and were named by colonizers fairly recently. Christopher Colombus wrote in his journal that there were black people here when he arrived in the Americas and multiple other explorers said the same thing. Our history and culture is way more thorough than any other group.
Anyone can be black in America, so I definitely agree with black being uncultured and unregulated. I don't feel connected to someone culturally because they call themselves black. I'm from Chicago, and we consider ourselves from the Mississippian stock. We call ourselves Ngaz, and we love Negroe culture, which is Creole, too. I'm not really certain if we are allowing immigrants in just because they call themselves black if you understand what I mean?
You being born in a particular place doesn’t necessarily restrict your core identity to said place. The whole thing is nuanced and a social construct. I am of my bloodline and family however my passport says something else because my dad’s nationality is so, even though he is a full blooded African same as my mum. I grew up in the UK but have never identified as British. I am who I am because of the character values I learn and act on based on the culture I am from. Which is an African culture. So being “born in America” doesn’t mean yeah he’s American. On paper yes but it’s more than that depending on your family and environment.
Yeah we understand that. The point is ironically some people from your home country don’t view you as one of them. Not all, some. Same goes for Kai. So it’s ironic when he disrespects the people who he shares a nationality with when many ppl from the Caribbean said they don’t claim him. With him recently going to Jamaica, many Caribbean’s on twitter said he’s not one of them, so for someone in his unique position, he has no business disrespecting an ethnic group of people who been in their country for centuries
@@lv6524 don’t be so basic. I know there are 54 countries in Africa and can probably name more than you. I’m not about to disclose personal information about my nationality online. Over a TH-cam video. And saying you’re African is correct. If you’re a Californian you’re still an American. If you’re Sudanese you’re still African. No need for pointless semantics.
@@TheLifeofMal ok I see fair point. Wouldn’t it ultimately his choice then? Or is there like a bar you need to hit to claim a background.. all weird and nuanced tbh. Anyway I agree that black Americans are their own thing and should not be disrespected regarding the matter of their actuallity. However the whole FBA thing is a bit to much when they start claiming that they are the descendants of black people in America that were there before the Slave trade when there is a high chance that they are not. That’s another convo though.
@@ebanavrintel right like saying that you're from the uk, born from 2 african parents, is not you disclosing personal informations over a youtube video. 😅I'm this basic
She spekaks as though African Americans haven't acted ignorantly towards Africans or Caribbeans. I'm not saying its right, but this isn't a one way street.
Bro Jamaicans never wanted to be African, Africans didnt claim anyone outside there specific country (like Nigeria wasnt really rocking with Ghana). And African Americans didnt want to be see as the people with flies on TV. We all beefed each other. We damn near squashed it all including the lightskin darkskin war.
Kai was probably speaking cultural upbringing, family structure, and tradition. Which clearly Blk america doesnt have that cause 70% families are just baby mommas. But every now n then have family gatherings which is cool too
Dumb childhood jokes isn’t the same as coming here and participating in erasure and pushing white supremacist stereotypes on a people who opened doors for immigrants. I’m not saying the jokes were right either but they are not comparable offenses
@@TheTruthTooth Kai’s mom is a baby mama😂 where is his dad? Black Americans do have cultural upbringings and traditions. I’ve experienced many in my two parent household and so has my bf in his two parent household.
1st gen Americans in general are more cultured than 2nd gen Americans who tend to not speak their parents language nor do they know the culture. I'm a 1st gen American of Jamaican heritage and I've a Jamaican and US passport. I speak Jamaican patios and been back and forth in Jamaica. If you met in person you'd think I'm Jamaican because my accent is a cusp between Jamaican and American. Me personally don't like 1st gen Americans claiming a heritage they don't know let alone visit the country on holidays. It comes off fake and disingenuous. I don't think Kai gives a damn about Haiti or Trinidad & Tobago. You never hear him doing any kind of charity work in those 2 countries yet come off as superior in the USA the country he was born in just because his parents are non FBA. So fake!!!
"Uncultured" usually means to have a lack of knowledge of the wider world AND (sometimes) not knowing how to appropriately behave in social settings. Is he wrong?
@@Alexa-uk8lj No. I think you're NOT a thorough reader or maybe a little slow to comprehend. But I'll repeat what the commenter said. They said "Uncultured" **SOMETIMES** means not knowing how to appropriately behave in social settings. That part only applies to few black people. But it ALSO MEANS to have a lack of knowledge of a wider world which also applies to a lot of black people. It's not our/your fault. This goes back generations. And our schools and society is to blame.
@@HTTC4life1981 well then the black people who experience culture outside of what they used to is definitely not the type of ignorant people I’m talking about. You ain’t gonna tell me black people are privy to culture and values simply cuz they black.
I'm a Black British born and raised guy with both parents being born in Jamaica. I now live in the Netherlands. I rarely come across Black Americans in my life since there aren't many in the UK and virtually none here in the Netherlands. I see Black Americans as a 'sister' people - not just because we share a similar history, but also because we are English speaking blacks who live in an overwhelmingly white society. I do not have an agenda with US Blacks, simply because I never lived with them. I like to approach people to say hello in appropriate circumstances, to people, However, at this point in my life I will never ever approach an US black person again. Never. Most of the times I have done so, I get a crazy, negative, angry, disgusting reaction from them - both the male and female. The final and last time I did so, I wanted to wish an older US woman happy new year at a bar in at a resort in Mexico. Good God, the reaction I got was chilling...so much so, I felt compelled to just walk away. I had a similar reaction from a black guy from New York when I was in Helsinki, Finland. I really cannot say what what goes in their minds, but from my point of view, it is as if the see another black person as a physical danger. This is something I am not used to and it is something I will avoid by simply avoiding US blacks. Today, I will make initial enquiries for a holiday/vacation at a resort in Jamaica for November 2024. I'm planning to go with a cousin and a good friend, also of Jamaican heritage living in the Netherlands. I am going to tell them, you want a quality break/rest/good time just keep away from Black Americans.
You are so wrong Herc made a contribution, he didn’t creat hip hop culture, if anything hip hop culture created him he came to America around 12 years old, he conformed to black culture, what he tapped into was already going on through out New York, he was apart of a culture that was black American and he made a contribution, he didn’t creat it, the elements of hip hop was there before he even touched the soil.
These two are remarkably petty, the best apology is to never have committed the offense. I think someone can be wrong, earnestly apologize, and work towards never reoffending. No one is perfect.
No one is perfect but I also never was ignorant enough to take someone's culture and then openly disrespect it simultaneously. Everyone makes mistakes but certain things don't get passes.
first of all hip hop was started by the father of hip hop cool herc who came from jamaica. he took the style from streets of kingston and brought the beats here. and black americans never wanted other blacks here , the proof is how mean BA were to us when we came. even till this day.
Without Africans creating braids there would be no Jayda Wayda hair style for them to simulate. We are one people. Educate people about the African American culture no need to attack ourselves try to enlighten and convert
We never made mention of Jayda wayda braids.. we aren’t one people and that’s okay. We are all different and that’s beautiful and we should all celebrate all the cultures that we have with shared phenotypes. If you watched the whole video, we didn’t attack anyone we just attack those who don’t respect us. I have had black friends from all different cultures and I think everyones individual cultures are beautiful and should be respected, included my culture. Black Americans have always been the most loving of our African people and fought from them to immigrate. But we are tired because we are the most disrespected yet most imitated in the diaspora
@@TheLifeofMal African americans wear braids an invention that belongs to the motherland, Africans wear your fake hair styles invention from African Americans so thats equal. "we aren't one people" but the last term you used was "Diaspora"... "we didnt attack anyone only attacked the disprectful"...If you want to be divisive thats on you. Afro beat is a play off of dancehall and Hip Hop was created by Jamaicans in NY the same place that Kai blew up off of. So really he blew up off Caribbean culture if you wanna go there. My point is we all play off each other because we are one all African. All everyone knows from African American culture is baby momma drama, gun violence and stolen KFC recipes. You had a chance to talk about the culture and I aint hear nothing except how hurt you are and wanna one up the Caribbean and Africa for something an African American said for the first 5 mins so I tuned out. Africans were the most disrespected for a long time "African booty scratcher, Starvation, flies" ect. I dont see no cultural shift African Americans have on other blacks at all and you here talm bout a lace front... from the same girls getting bbls mimicking a Ghanian Aunties
Stokely Carmichael- Trinidad Marcus Garvey- Jamaica Both prominent figures in Civil Rights. NOT ENTERTAINMENT!!! Shame we can talk about US Black immigrants benefiting from America, but not acknowledge the role that WE played in securing equality and opportunity for Blacks in America. You started with the right sentiment, Kai is a young man that misspoke. All I hear from the Black Americans that echo and share the thoughts y’all pushing is Insecurity.
Nicki didn’t appropriate nothing. Hip hop was created from a combination of AA, Puerto Ricans and Jamaicans. Hence, as a Caribbean that also belongs to her
@@islander5334microphone check is coming out later on this month and the real creators of hip hop will have their say on who created hip hop. We don't claim jerk chicken or reggae so please don't claim Black American music
What’s ignorant about it..? Also emotional? I wouldn’t say that lol but also how do you except people to react to disrespect. It’s been a running narrative that we “don’t have any culture” and a lot of us are tired of it honestly
@@AlexGarris Sure. "I love Nicky but she's Trinidadian" - Emotional "There was no immigration" 8:50 - Ahistorical, Ignorant "We always worked in love..." 9:45 - Ahistorical "The Caribbeans are real delusional" 15:10 - Emotional, Ignorant There seems to be a general theme of us vs them, particularly in regard to culture. What's strange about this, is it reveals a critical lack of understanding of the complex nature of black culture (as a whole and its subgroups) in America. You do understand that there is such a things as cultural diffusion, correct? That modern black American culture in various parts of the country, specifically those areas with large historical immigrant populations (as you mentioned, The Bronx), would more accurately be characterized as a "melting pot". The black American culture that you speak of (ironically, the worst subgroups of black culture that you bring up), is not exclusively "American descendant of slaves" culture. That's an emotional reading of history. Study cultural diffusion. Is the culture in Little Italy, Italian or American? A quick glance at history would show that the contributions of immigrant blacks, is foundational to black American advancement. One could argue that are immigrant blacks overrepresented in their contributions towards black American advancement. Clearly, Kai is ignorant and lacks a degree of sophistication, especially when it comes to these topics. He seems to be conflating "foreign/immigrant" with "having culture", since it's different from the larger culture. The same way people claim white Americans have no culture. What's strange about all of this, is this sort of grievance tends to be "class coded". Typically, it's unsophisticated individuals who find themselves mired in these petty arguments, as indicated by the usual participants of these discussions, and the direction the argument takes. The unsophisticated immigrant will ignorantly criticize blacks as having no culture, because they're too foolish to understand how culture works. And the unsophisticated black American will immediately defend the existence of black culture by bring up Hip Hop and ghetto culture.
The diaspora says Black Americans have no culture because you’ve lost all your historical African culture, Latin America, Caribbean both Hispanic and black have a link to their African Culture which is part and parcel of their present identity. You have culture but it’s solely based on your time in captivity. Chitllin for example, New Orleans have culture but the rest of black Americans culture is doing and adapting to white American’s culture.
B*tch please. You better at least be from America to make this delusional claim. Black American culture is so vast to the point where even different states have their own culture- example: New Jersey has Jersey club music created by black Americans. A whole subgenre. Also, when black Americans tried to embrace African culture and learn African heritage, Africans called it cultural appropriation. But let one of these African ashies marry a yt woman and watch how Africans smile nod and eat it all up. Yall just want an excuse to hate African Americans because anti blackness is real. Keep 🦝’in though.
you can not be fucking talking right now we created the whole term African American because we wanted to associate with the diaspora and wanted to be with you guys. Our culture evolved from African culture just like those that were brought in the americas pls get educated you sound like a fool rn.
It’s not appropriation when black immigrants do it cause others see us as niggas too and black Americans feel some kind of way if you don’t act like them. You’re literally calling fellow Africans outsiders whilst saying there should be love 💁🏿♂️
They're confused idiots. Literally from the same group originally hut feel closer to wyt person who is American than "outsider" black people, lol but then they cry massa doesn't like or accept them etc
Anyone who isn’t stupid and actually goes and watches that clip can easily see he said there Uncultured when it comes to his understanding his Carnival, He didn’t say Black Americans directly themselves have no culture, He was insinuating that they were unaware of His culture. People just run with anything
You’re playing obtuse intentionally - I can agree. He didn’t say black Americans are uncultured. But if you pay attention to what he said after, he said “you’re just American” with disdain. Which is the other common argument made- that Americans are so s*upid, we can’t even begin to understand. And sorry not sorry, y’all don’t ever keep the same energy when yt people attempt to assimilate and cosplay West Indian culture. Y’all think it’s so cute.
@@deebee2893 that’s what the internet says. I even went on a black history site made and curated by people with phds in African American studies. I first learned about this in middle school from my music teacher who made us write a report on hip hop so for reference she threw on this old documentary about it and dj cool herc came up for a good portion of the documentary and they claimed he was a founding father of hip hop. I could be wrong it is the internet you know but that’s just what I saw.

To debunk this misconception, let's clarify that African culture encompasses various elements such as music, language, religion, art, literature, food, and social norms. Specifically, genres like jazz and hip hop, African American Vernacular English (AAVE), activism, fashion trends, and community norms are aspects of African American culture that have significantly impacted global culture.
As an African in the diaspora I respect the African American culture, especially the music, food & activism
The problem is the black Americans have refused to acknowledge the new force driving out their culture and changing history. It is sad that truth is always received with negative energy among black Americans. The black Americans are not moving forward. Africans are slowly getting better than black Americans. This mentality of victim is killing these people.
You can't the past we should learn to live and achieve greatness.
A society that calm it have culture it must defend itself. But with the black Americans it a whole different story.
Respect! But we are not Africans or African American. We are Foundational Black Americans. African American incorporated all of the diaspora. So that's how you delineate us.
@@mikelegacyTV I stand corrected, Sir. Foundational Black Americans. I appreciate the correction.

*Black American first

These ppl been like this. Over 90% of Americans never had to deal with mass generational immigration from. But they have ALWAYS been like this. Carribean/Jamicans call us yanks as a derogatory.
Black first ..
I fully agree with both of your sentiments. However, Alex, I adore your energy because we're on the same page. Black American culture is undeniably authentic, widespread, and the blueprint; it can never be erased.
It's crazy that people run from their
countries to America and try to tell Black
Americans what they "need to do or fix
this or that" in their homeland when alot of
these people aren't fixing anything in their
own homelands or dealing with crime or
nothing. They're just running somewhere
else
Our culture is standing 10 toes down and not fleeing.
Right and african american is a misnomer.
🤦🏾♂️ my friend is Jamaican and she made a similar comment in passing one day and I had to check her asz. She’s a second gen Jamaican born and raised in Florida and cosplays everything about black Americans even her gf is a black American. It tripped me out
Kai Cenat is a weirdo... Black Americans have diverse cultures. South Black Culture is different from the California or even Maryland.
Don't forget the gullah geechees of South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia. Most people would consider them Caribbean after hearing their accent but they'll be quick to tell you they not. They're also the ones who started the slave rebellion in the u.s folks say it was the Haitians when in all actuality it was the gullah geechee tribe that still exist and are thriving today. Most of us black americans get our dialect and superstitions from that group of black Americans. So I agree we're heavily diverse💯

We inspire people to stand up for themselves and fight for what is right.
We are the moral compass of the world.
Well stated...
The ignorance of outsiders is insane! They can see their own "culture" even by tribe but can't see the cultural delineations of Americans when they get here because they indulge in the commercialized aspects of Black American culture. Do Asian-Americans have culture? Do Mexican-Americans have culture? Italian-Americans? Black American cultural traditions are not only documented but regionally diverse, and integrated into our everyday.

Culture can be defined as all the ways of life including arts, beliefs and institutions of a population that are passed down from generation to generation. Culture has been called "the way of life for an entire society." As such, it includes codes of manners, dress, language, religion, rituals, art. This definition checks the box for all Black Americans.

That comment alone was ignorant
@@spokentruth5909 Exactly
Can You Imagine a Person Not Wanting to Acknowledge, and Credit Someone, That they Will Completely Deny Who/What that Person is All about.
Honestly, Kai says and does wild stuff to disrespect black people all the time. To the point of black American saying crazy stuff all the time that may be true, but a lot of these people who get famous wouldn't be famous unless black Americans support them so at the end of the day, we may say what we say but but we keep it 100 with people that look like us. Even in this video he still bigged Kai up for the platform that he has while giving criticism that's well-deserved. It's the people that are not from America that have the same skin complexion that say and do and turn on their own people there's too many receipts to prove it.
We aren’t the same ppl just cause we share a skin color
Shout out to yall content creators that are not scared to call out the BS ppl try to say about Black Americans
I legit saw a clip of Kai Cenat not knowing who Killer Mike is. So why in the hell would he care who is uncultured?
At the end of the day, until there's consequences, they'll keep it up. I don't even think he apologized..

“I was never ignorant” is an extremely ignorant statement but ok your perfect go ahead.

Nothing wrong with embracing other cultures. I know the world fucks with Jamaican and American culture including other cultures because people been exposed to it through commercial and underground music and movies and tourism. So you can’t hate when the world embraces it or chooses not to embrace it or agrees or disagrees with some aspects. Sometimes it’s not meant as disrespectful but just a difference ❤
When an African says culture we mean first identity so like from ethnic group then tribe then clan.
2, then rites of passage like naming ceremony rites, puberty rites, marriage ceremony rites, funeral rites
3, family structure, man being the head of the house, wife then children, and the extended family structure, when we say family it means extended family the whole clan
4, religion and traditions local rulers and systems
5, language
6, Art,clothing, literature,music
7, food
From an Africans perspective black Americans have a culture but isnt as deep as we do but its no fault of theirs though, as to whether its a positive culture or not is another discussion all together but most of the time when Africans are saying you dont have a culture they maybe thinking positive culture something you can actively pass on to younger generation.
I dont know why a Caribbean would say that though.
We have the most thorough culture period. The world follows our culture. I'll put our culture up to anyones.
If y’all beautiful people want to learn our uncultured LANGUAGE LET ME LOL 😂

This is very ignorant, the lady claims wigs came from black Americans. Wigs go back as far as Egyptian pyramids, this lady needs to do some research about Africa. This level of ignorance is not healthy.
Thank you. I was thinking the same thing. She made me itch listening to her. She sounds so ignorant about culture and where her culture derived from. Speaking all while wearing a wig/weave. (Someone else's hair) And I think she believes she is intelligent. SMH. I want explain to her how she sounds ignorant, but I know it's a waste of time.
Whenever I listen to American podcasts most of the time am surprised to how they no shit about the world.
Stop being ignorant. You're forced to nitpick one discrepancy 😢based on semantics in a whole podcast because you couldn't deny the overarching point. She obviously is referring to the style of wigs/hairstyles that can now be found everywhere in the Diaspora originated in America. Kai's whole platform is based off a subset of Black American culture. Her point stands as true and valid.
Just didn't respond to the entire podcast, just one bit that I found very outrageous. Entire podcast is just silly given that it doesn't differentiate between "uncultured" and "having no culture".

Which is a confusing fact. sure if i do a 23 and me I'm pretty sure you'll find dna from people from the mother land. But i am not African. I am an American first. My family bloodline as many others starts here in America. This is not only my home but its the country I hail from. I am not from Africa im from America. When we leave this country no matter the race creed or color. As soon as we open our mouths and speak. They will say ahh you're an American not African American or white American or Latin American. Simply Americans. Only here amongst people born in this country. Do we place each other in boxes. Which causes even more separation and divide. Whats meant to bring us together ultimately is the same thing that divides us Americans as a whole needs to wake up. We're all in this together...
This girl isn’t exactly in the right it’s hard to assimilate into black American culture when you are not black because a huge part of this culture is about being black and our features . That’s why it’s different for other people.
What gets me the people from the islands don’t stop to think it’s 44 million Black Americans in the US that’s just a few million less than the whole country of the UK. It’s not even Mathematically possible for all of us to be alike. We have 4 kids with the same DNA and all of them are so different. They think we are all Rappers and Athletes we have doctors, lawyers, engineers, scientists, astronauts, pilots ect.. when I hear people say the things they say it’s always immigrants that is taking advantage of our culture and struggles because without us they wouldn’t even be allowed in our country!!
Crazy I didn’t know Lil bro said this dumb shit
Cenat was wrong for that. No diaspora war please. Strength in pan-africanism, conscious people around the world think like this. Unified not uniform. Black American culture is real and strong. And there has always been a cultural cross pollination through out the diaspora.
Influence goes back and forth. Not the same as appropriation, nobody is claiming to be boss. Don't take the bait.
America also misrepresents black culture and plays in stereotypes, maybe the boy was criticizing thoses stereotypes (like conscious black Americans do)??
Pan Africanism has been one-sided for far too long.
@@Craig-pm2kc It's elements used to be part of the social studies curriculum in many black countries but I guess not everyone sees the big picture. Have to continue to educate because there are so many counter narratives out there about individual advancement. Ideally, an elder ( a wise one) would have set Cenat straight before he could start addressing the world.
Stop promoting intergration with ppl who dont rock with us.
@sheli5483 Have you explained any of this to your fellow Africans? It seems like it's the responsibility of Black Americans to embrace everyone else only to be disrespected when it's over?
@sheli5483 Kai Cenat can't be set straight because that's their culture.
Diaspora wars are stupid as hell. We all benefitted from African American culture. But let's not forget that Caribbean culture had an impact on African American culture too. Without Marcus Garvey, there wouldn't be a Malcolm X, without Jamaica, there would be no hip hop. We are all brothers and sisters. Unite
Correct. One love ❤️
No it didn't and Malcolm X is American.
Hip Hop started with the Black Spades in 1971 in😊 the Bronx. The Black Spades were all Black Americans. Yes, 3 yrs later, Kool Herc and other immigrants made contributions to Hip Hop, just as the rest of the world ha, but the origins of Hip Hop are solely Black American.
Malcolm X 100% exists without Marcus Garvey, but Garvey doesn't exist if Jamaicans don't kick his movement out of the country and Garvey is forced to move to Harlem. Harlem/Black Americans kicked off Marcus Garvey's movement, because Jamaicans were too timid to make his movement happen.
@digitallhm8160 LET'S not call people copying Black Americans' contributions. Everybody knows how to copy Black Americans
😂😂😂😂😂
Definition of culture might be needed. I am mindful it might extended from family, community, church, work, city, village, country and continent. Some maybe exported and imported and in some case is diluted overtime.
I dont think that when anyone says this (including Kai) they mean that FBA, dont have culture. Most people recognize the richness in FBA culture. However, when the conversion goes into how connected FBA are to their roots, most either arent at all, or are working their way towards it. Living in the US, as a non-white person, theres alot of assimilation that most non- white people do to survive & we all know how long FBA has had to do that (mostly out of obvious horrible historical circumstances). Black people in the Caribbean & in africa are the majority in their countries, so although colonization & imperialism has affected the whole diaspora in very similar ways, there's also many differences & that's where the discord & disconnect comes from.
FBA survived when others ran give my people the respect ⚫️

It’s always the walking stereotypes😂
:/, he is from there! Trinidad & Haitian. He can be both! Carribeans & Americans!
You being born in a particular place doesn’t necessarily restrict your core identity to said place. The whole thing is nuanced and a social construct.
I am of my bloodline and family however my passport says something else because my dad’s nationality is so, even though he is a full blooded African same as my mum. I grew up in the UK but have never identified as British. I am who I am because of the character values I learn and act on based on the culture I am from. Which is an African culture. So being “born in America” doesn’t mean yeah he’s American. On paper yes but it’s more than that depending on your family and environment.
Yeah we understand that. The point is ironically some people from your home country don’t view you as one of them. Not all, some. Same goes for Kai. So it’s ironic when he disrespects the people who he shares a nationality with when many ppl from the Caribbean said they don’t claim him. With him recently going to Jamaica, many Caribbean’s on twitter said he’s not one of them, so for someone in his unique position, he has no business disrespecting an ethnic group of people who been in their country for centuries

And African Americans didnt want to be see as the people with flies on TV. We all beefed each other. We damn near squashed it all including the lightskin darkskin war.
Kai was probably speaking cultural upbringing, family structure, and tradition. Which clearly Blk america doesnt have that cause 70% families are just baby mommas. But every now n then have family gatherings which is cool too

I'm a Black British born and raised guy with both parents being born in Jamaica. I now live in the Netherlands. I rarely come across Black Americans in my life since there aren't many in the UK and virtually none here in the Netherlands. I see Black Americans as a 'sister' people - not just because we share a similar history, but also because we are English speaking blacks who live in an overwhelmingly white society. I do not have an agenda with US Blacks, simply because I never lived with them. I like to approach people to say hello in appropriate circumstances, to people, However, at this point in my life I will never ever approach an US black person again. Never. Most of the times I have done so, I get a crazy, negative, angry, disgusting reaction from them - both the male and female. The final and last time I did so, I wanted to wish an older US woman happy new year at a bar in at a resort in Mexico. Good God, the reaction I got was chilling...so much so, I felt compelled to just walk away. I had a similar reaction from a black guy from New York when I was in Helsinki, Finland. I really cannot say what what goes in their minds, but from my point of view, it is as if the see another black person as a physical danger. This is something I am not used to and it is something I will avoid by simply avoiding US blacks. Today, I will make initial enquiries for a holiday/vacation at a resort in Jamaica for November 2024. I'm planning to go with a cousin and a good friend, also of Jamaican heritage living in the Netherlands.

There seems to be a general theme of us vs them, particularly in regard to culture. What's strange about this, is it reveals a critical lack of understanding of the complex nature of black culture (as a whole and its subgroups) in America. You do understand that there is such a things as cultural diffusion, correct? That modern black American culture in various parts of the country, specifically those areas with large historical immigrant populations (as you mentioned, The Bronx), would more accurately be characterized as a "melting pot".
The black American culture that you speak of (ironically, the worst subgroups of black culture that you bring up), is not exclusively "American descendant of slaves" culture. That's an emotional reading of history. Study cultural diffusion.
Is the culture in Little Italy, Italian or American?
A quick glance at history would show that the contributions of immigrant blacks, is foundational to black American advancement. One could argue that are immigrant blacks overrepresented in their contributions towards black American advancement.
Clearly, Kai is ignorant and lacks a degree of sophistication, especially when it comes to these topics. He seems to be conflating "foreign/immigrant" with "having culture", since it's different from the larger culture. The same way people claim white Americans have no culture.
What's strange about all of this, is this sort of grievance tends to be "class coded". Typically, it's unsophisticated individuals who find themselves mired in these petty arguments, as indicated by the usual participants of these discussions, and the direction the argument takes. The unsophisticated immigrant will ignorantly criticize blacks as having no culture, because they're too foolish to understand how culture works. And the unsophisticated black American will immediately defend the existence of black culture by bring up Hip Hop and ghetto culture.

The diaspora says Black Americans have no culture because you’ve lost all your historical African culture, Latin America, Caribbean both Hispanic and black have a link to their African Culture which is part and parcel of their present identity. You have culture but it’s solely based on your time in captivity. Chitllin for example, New Orleans have culture but the rest of black Americans culture is doing and adapting to white American’s culture.
It’s still culture.
B*tch please. You better at least be from America to make this delusional claim. Black American culture is so vast to the point where even different states have their own culture- example: New Jersey has Jersey club music created by black Americans. A whole subgenre. Also, when black Americans tried to embrace African culture and learn African heritage, Africans called it cultural appropriation. But let one of these African ashies marry a yt woman and watch how Africans smile nod and eat it all up. Yall just want an excuse to hate African Americans because anti blackness is real. Keep 🦝’in though.
you can not be fucking talking right now we created the whole term African American because we wanted to associate with the diaspora and wanted to be with you guys. Our culture evolved from African culture just like those that were brought in the americas pls get educated you sound like a fool rn.

One word: Delineation
It’s not appropriation when black immigrants do it cause others see us as niggas too and black Americans feel some kind of way if you don’t act like them. You’re literally calling fellow Africans outsiders whilst saying there should be love 💁🏿♂️
They're confused idiots. Literally from the same group originally hut feel closer to wyt person who is American than "outsider" black people, lol but then they cry massa doesn't like or accept them etc
Bro I’m not American but it would be entree if you don’t act like a black American. They have a negative stereotype
Anyone who isn’t stupid and actually goes and watches that clip can easily see he said there Uncultured when it comes to his understanding his Carnival, He didn’t say Black Americans directly themselves have no culture, He was insinuating that they were unaware of His culture. People just run with anything
You’re playing obtuse intentionally - I can agree. He didn’t say black Americans are uncultured. But if you pay attention to what he said after, he said “you’re just American” with disdain. Which is the other common argument made- that Americans are so s*upid, we can’t even begin to understand. And sorry not sorry, y’all don’t ever keep the same energy when yt people attempt to assimilate and cosplay West Indian culture. Y’all think it’s so cute.

A Jamaican man was one of the founders of hip hop music.
No he wasn’t he literally jumped on the band wagon, it was already established!
@@deebee2893 that’s what the internet says. I even went on a black history site made and curated by people with phds in African American studies. I first learned about this in middle school from my music teacher who made us write a report on hip hop so for reference she threw on this old documentary about it and dj cool herc came up for a good portion of the documentary and they claimed he was a founding father of hip hop. I could be wrong it is the internet you know but that’s just what I saw.
Wrong!
This dude is more feminine than the female sitting next to him😂but anyways i agree with kai cenat
Sir…you took the time out your morning to search up another man and find a video about him on TH-cam that only has 11 views right now to defend his dumb commentary. Nothing more feminine than that💀 you on Kai’s dick yikes 😮💨
Feminine? You're wearing skinny jeans in every picture on your IG. Maybe they're so tight it's cutting off the blood flow to your brain and not letting you think straight. You agree that Black Americans don't have any culture yet wearing Jordans in every picture? Gotcha
I bet you do brah lol, we don’t care y’all always click up against us anyway… That’s why I think it’s best black Americans help y’all by separating ourselves from this jealous ass diaspora…
Damn, I love my people yall ate his ass up in these comments😂 I don't have anything to add!!!
@JayQwezzy BECAUSE YOU ARE A THIRD WORLD FAILURE JUST LIKE HE IS!! IN FACT, WHATS YOUR CULTURE??
The video was interesting and now that I wasted my time looking for the Cenat clip…you seem smart enough to know you’re taking it outta context 😂😂 but get your views
but what do we have besides baby hairs, cars & guns though. what significant things do we have to brag about
A Black man invented the modern toilet and a Black woman invented touch screen and home security systems... we have a lot to brag about.
@@down-b8197 we also invented black rathedness, proud unapologetic ignorance, baby daddy culture, etc. amazing stuff huh?
So do Africans.🤷🏾♀️
@@down-b8197 I’m talking about as a collective. We didn’t invent those things. That person invented that. He & she can brag about that.
@@themayne6303
If that's the case what can other groups brag about that wasnt accomplished by an individual?
