#6: CL’s “Baddest Female” Video
Racist Moments of KpopCL’s “Baddest Female” music video was a cluster of cultural appropriation to say the least. In 4 excruciatingly long minutes and 3 seconds she managed to mock aspects of Latin@ and black gang cultures, wear grills, dress as a chola and “thug” black woman and get her hair done in the salon like a black lady too! The video made a complete joke and mockery out of the genre and people she was trying to give “homage to,” and was cringe-worthy to say the least. There is a much longer description of the problems with the video available here and with it, CL’s “Baddest Female” video slide into #6 on our racist Kpop countdown.
