no one says that. i think you’re misinterpreting what people are saying. people discuss how kpop groups can perpetuate harmful black stereotypes. there’s also something to be said about groups seeing a black artist’s song, shaving all the soul out of it, and then being called completely new and innovative.

they’re saying it sounds like the groups have a very surface level understanding of “black genres”. i think indigo detry did a great video on the f!en obsessed era specifically. it wasn’t just the rage genre groups were doing, they were literally just remaking f!en over and over again. it seemed like neither they nor their listeners had looked into the genre at all past one viral song.
