@LINDSEYMARI, of course people from Australia, France, China, Argentina, and Iceland can have "swag." That has never been a question and Iggy has tons of it.

My issue is appropriation. Iggy is CLEARY appropriating a particular "sound" that I read as inauthentic. If you buy it, cool. However, I do not. I come to this conclusion not based on "stereotypes" nor "ignorance." I base this conclusion on a history of appropriation that is at the heart of American music. Iggy, sorry, is no exception.

But again, please feel free to enjoy her. I wish her much success.
