13173837, how much is the appropriation created by the media

vs the artist? mind you, I don't follow miley or bruno much, but have either of them ever claimed a style as their own that clearly came from other influences? anybody with any sense knows that miley aint created no damn twerking. lol. even madonna....did she ever tell folks that she created Vogue?

a lot of those white artists that went down in the Delta also gave credit to the artists they pulled from. the rolling stones have always talked about where they got their style from. as has bruce springsteen.

point is, I think the media and the unaware audiences push the narrative of who created what rather than the artists themselves.
