And this is...?

I was going to say "Oh, DON'T let that be Gin Wigmore..."

Anyone else getting tired of the SJWs posting here going "I was so surprised she had a raspy/powerful voice, after all, she's ~WHITE~!"?

That song makes me think of old blues singers, for some reason. /random

You've been poisoned by social justice warriors to internalize white as bad. At least you recognize it's wrong, so you can work towards changing your perceptions.

Seconded whole-heartedly. Er, thirded.

Pretty much this.

Ethnicity =/= good or bad. It just is.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly....

*sigh* I just have to wonder if this is ever going to end, or is it jut going to keep getting worse.

Most people do thankfully grow out of these stages.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
But...she is more popular because she white. Of course white doesn't = bad but god damn I can't count on one hand how many artists have become popular doing "black" music or "black" things.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-21 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
That is... um. What? Why does her skin pigment make a difference?

Oh! Is this that singer who has a really notable/kind of soulful voice? I know that's not a lot to go on, but I was listening to her in the car with my dad and he did the whole "thought she was black, she's actually white" thing when I was just like "...Ok dad."

EDIT: Found out her name, it's Gin Wigmore. :)

For the longest time, I thought Roberta Flack was white and Gordon Lightfoot was black. Ooops.

/is old.

She doesn't "sound" any ethnicity. All she sounds like is just like she doesn't know how to sing.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
...really? Was that REALLY necessary to add?

I.. thought this was Christina.

Fun fact: for years I thought Randy Newman was black. When I saw his picture finally when I was about 15, I was genuinely shocked for a minute. I'm not sure why that happened.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Wait, he's not?

Holy crap.

I was under the impression that Tom Jones was black until like 2 weeks ago. Granted, he was waaaaaay before my time, but still. Damn.

Also the first time I heard an Adele song I just assumed she was black.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I don't see where *poisoned by SJW's!!!*" is coming from. There are some artists that people just assume are black. Adele, Amy, Gin. It doesn't mean anything bad OR good. It's just the way it is.

She's cool if you're in the mood for some blue eyed soul.

(Anonymous) 2013-03-22 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
"All blacks are natural born soul singers" is a stereotype. You expected her to be something (based on her voice) that she wasn't. That can get some people upset. I think that's quite normal.

She sounds a little like Amy Winehouse? She doesn't really sound "black" to me. She sounds like a white girl singing in a Winehouse style.

It's kind of mean, but I thought, "How white do you have to be to think she sounds 'black'?" Well, I guess some black people would claim her, too.

Or is the lyric, "Once you go black you never go back," confusing people?
