1. No I haven't heard his music. That's why I was suggesting if you want us to care, you might describe his music?

Funny how you denigrate me for "mansplaining" then loudly proclaim yourself able to do whatever you want without any cultural sensitivity. Like you being Black gives you carte blanche to defy reason.

How about everyone regardless of color should strive for reason and empathy in their writings?

2. My point is that we should critically look at the effects of someone using cultural appropriation rather than blanket declare it a crime. I don't know what you mean by "within your rights". To call for people to be doxxed or fired or whatever for what I view as a nuetral act is horrible. Thank you for not doing it.

3. You can gatekeep however you want, but I fail to see a point in telling someone how to be Black. You should read Wayne Brady's response to being made fun of for not being Black enough. He simply said that he has the same risk of being stopped at an intersection, he had the same hurdles at anyone else. He talks in a more White tone because his grandmother told him to speak to be heard and his military father would have smacked him if he didn't English correctly. I'm not saying one way of speaking is better than the other, but for people to pile on someone for pretending to be Black when they are Black sounds horrible from my outside perspective.

I'm used to letting people identify as black if they want like Barack Obama or Halle Berry because you're community has claimed those people as Black trailblazers.

Just because something has been used in a context to hold Black people down does not mean that anyone using it is racist. Peanut butter sandwiches, interstate highways, and SAT scores might have racist histories, wanting to put up an intererstate highway isn't racist. Society exists outside of symbols. Sometimes things have more modern context.
