I think one difference between the old New Black and the new New Black like Pharell is at least the Old New Black can without irony point to the issues and claim to be separate from it. Pharell actively engages in and profits from the scenarios he is supposedly above. "Hey, don't blame others for your station in society, but here is this negativity and coonery I made especially for you, my people."
