How the fuck does reality come up with shit like “electronic-tribal musician who uses KKK aesthetics to promote African nationalism is cancelled after people find out he’s actually a white guy from France”, I swear to God if you write this shit out in a book you'd get called out for being unrealistically on the nose with this shit

so, a white french guy dresses as a klan member and preaches that black people should go back to their country of origin while making dogshit music? am i reading this correctly?

The text doesn't say that he is french.

Theres a fellow named Andrew Claristidge, a French electronic music producer, who's "associated" with the "angolan" musician. So folks are mostly drawing a line from the that to the dude in the hood

Yeah I did read this https://consequence.net/2025/11/african-imperial-wizard-white-guy-xiu-xiu/ on it.

Despite claiming to come from Angola, those known to be involved with African Imperial Wizard all hail from Europe. The project is signed to Tesco Records, a German record label, and one of the few names associated with the act is Andrew Claristidge, a French electronic music producer. It’s currently unclear if Claristidge is the “middle-aged white guy” or merely a close collaborator.
