Probably because they realize most of it is Black culture anyway. If we're being honest I mean, they're rapping now, bumping old school r & b in those lowriders , wearing the oversized sports jerseys, dancing like Black people, so why would they cry appropriation when it truly isn't their's anyway.
@mr.nyceguy7800 lol.. you tripping !! If anything blacks copy mexicans with the lowriders and shit .. what do mexicans copy from blacks ??? You will never ever see a black dressed like these guys . This is straight chicano sh!t.
What? Chicanos been dressing like this way before the 90s. Just cuz gangsta rap highlighted this style to the rest of the world in the 90s , doesn't mean that's where it started
I grew up in a mostly Hispanic and Southerner neighborhood, and they always treated me in like family. Shared their beers, put some extra meat on the grill for me, and always crack jokes with me like I was one of the homies. I got nothing but love for people who treat me like family💚

@@timcahill7792I guess you work for a government auction company. I saw a documentary about low rider type vehicles seized by the feds. The cars are only auctioned off to Japanese. It had something to do with the cars being connected to gangs and drug dealing.
It's similar to the Geisha tradition that is named for "Ge" which is short for Gaia another wife of Noah also called Tytea as in Thai TEA (tea originates in China) and Aishia "Asia" the granddaughter of Noah and the tradition began in China before it was later adopted by the descendants of Japheth-Nese "Japanese" the son of Noah the ancestor of the people of Japan. The name for the Mexican Mariachi and Marichi (one letter difference) Romanized as Marīci which means "ray of light" the son of Brahma and on the movie La Bamba when on the radio their announcing the death of Ritchie Valens and his mother Connie Valenzuela played by Rosanna DeSoto says, "not my Richie". The string bands such as Mariachi have been popular in Mexico since the colonial era which began in 1521 and that happens to be around the same time that people from India arrived in Mexico.
@@projectreracccty4764 "Gei" comes from the Japanese "芸" which means an art, performance or trick like the words 芸人 = performer or 芸道 = arts Nothing to do with religion.
The very sample of this song that you hear is from a black group in the 1970s called *'DELEGATION'* which consists of three BLACK MEN. I was born and raised with Mexicans in L.A. in the 1970s and 1980s. *EVERYTHING* that Chicanos do outside of eating tacos is *BLACK* The LA lowriding culture was originally by black Americans from Long Beach, California. The zoot suits that Chicano men enjoy wearing back in the 1940s and 50s was invented by black men in Harlem, NY. Mexican people who live in Los Angeles, California were 100% enhanced by black American culture.
Man I didn't do it for fashion I was gangbanging not even thinking of cultur until I hit prison then I get home everyone dressing like I did and whe I hit them up they don't even know what that is. You really shouldn't dress like this expecting not to get hit up.
Lame foo, dressed like that to be a gangster? I dressed like this because that’s all we could afford that’s the basis of our roots not to look hard. Most fools in most ghettos dress like this, hitting people just to bang is lame.
Good point you made. I rock with flannels and Dickies pants without drawing attention upon myself. Also, I have no tattoos, etc. Never been hit up bcuz out in the public or streets, I tend to mind my own business....that always works for me.
If you did time, then you know that Chicano culture is actually remixing and copying Foundational Blk American style and culture. Even the song playing in the background is a remix of a Foundational Blk American R&B song. Nuff said 🔥
Oh, my best friends growing up we’re Chicano old school children as we had a good time together I particularly loved the fact that they like my peoples kind of music they like soul music they like black music and we would have such a good time making dedication over the radio Dancing doing our make up and our hair I was always treated well by their families. We were also one of the few African-American Catholic families in the church. I was raised Catholic and most of my friends went to Catholic school, but we have a very multi racial family, which includes Cuban and I enjoyed being part of my Chicano friends families because they always treated me and my brothers like family and it was a blessing. Never be afraid to admire and participate another peoples cultures. You missed out on a lot if you do.
It's a standard above the rest, Chicano pride on every aspect of culture and man kind that's why it was shun down by the normies or the outsiders! It's at our core that this expression is derived from, all the way to our roots by embarcing every aspect of our history, art and creative culture.
Chicano culture is Black Culture with “Chicano” as the label. Wearing Bandanas, Low-Riders, Graffiti aka Street Art is everything West Coast Black ppl were doing in the late 60s and 70s. I’ve been to Mexico, and Mexicans who are proud of their heritage/ country don’t even dress that way or do graffiti. Even the song in this video comes from a song Tupac did called “Po N!99a Blues” 😂😂😂
You're completely 100% wrong. Lowriders came from mexican-americans all the way from the 50s and even earlier, back then they didn't even bounce, they simply lowered the suspension a lot which is where the name Lowrider came from. The clothes and style all have origins from the pachucos during the Zoot suit era, chicanos who got imprisoned also created new styles such as the long socks, while also adopting the cortez because of the cesar cortez thing and workwear because of their humble origins in the hood. The reason why you don't see mexicans like that in México Is because chicano culture is looked down on over there, obviously because of the gangbanging aspect, there's also a big beef between chicanos and mexicans because of the treatment that mexicans used to get from mexican-americans in the past. Basically mexicans hate chicano culture because to them it's shameful to be associated with people who managed to get better opportunities yet still prefered the vida loca, while also hating it because of pure resentment after years of being looked down on by chicanos. Black people used to dress like that during the 70s-90s but to say that raza took it from them? It's the other way around, that's why during the 90s the amount of black guys in flannels and dickies dropped a little, by the 2000s they were already non existent, replacing all that attire with brands such as fubu, g-unit, southpole, crown holder, red monkey and more. Chicanos even up to this day still preserve all this because it's already a culture beyond gangbanging, african americans on the other hand simply got out of the bus after they kept developing their own style, nothing wrong with that but this? 100% raza, no dissing or anything, it's just a way of life.
@@K-EntZXWrong. Foundational Blk Americans originated low riders.. It started when Blk Americans in the military came back to the USA after WW2. ... Most of them were in San Diego and then eventually Los Angeles. ... Chicano "culture" is copying and remixing Foundational Blk American style and culture. Even the song playing in the background is a remixed version of a Foundational Blk American R&B song. Btw, Tupac remixed it too. Nuff said. 🔥
I mean we're not claiming that rap is ours hell I bet you don't got a problem with Big pun rhymes but u tryna make something out of nothing wit us? Plus were not complaining about Japan taking inspiration from us lol come on bro just stop
Im so glad somebody said it, Dont get it twisted, Chicano culture is beautiful, but it is copied from black culture, Japan has been mimicing hip hop culture for some time now. All the lowrider music a large majority is black artist period. Its about respect , We black people have always been the blue print . Your welcome.
You sound like a supremacist get back to me when you can type this in your native language and not English a yt Anglo saxon language on a computer or phone on a social media app that'd you definitely don't have the blue prints for that was all made by Europeans even your fashion and cars are designer from Europe and your jewelry is from jewish people
The term came into popular use by Mexican Americans as a symbol of pride during the Chicano Movement of the 1960s. The Chicano community created a strong political and cultural presence in response to years of social oppression and discrimination in a predominantly Caucasian American society. ( FOR THE BLACK PPL IN THE COMMENTS) 🤣
I'm white and grew up in south Texas and didn't even know we were dressing like cholos or pachuco? Thats just the way we rolled? Lol!!! Moved to California and same deal but in was in the surfer culture there too. Still rock my flannel and baggys...

I watched this like a million times I grew up around this I remember back in the day I would sit in a low rider and one of my family members would hit the switches I laughed so hard 😅but I remember on hollowing I dressed like a chola
It's Califa style,it got popular and spreaded in the 50s.Califa also enhanced their own Pachuco style and faught for that stilo.Its never died in the West Coast,its the way of our life.Now with social media,its coming back out everywhere..Even the gangster biker look spreaded like crazy..El Estilo Califa Chicano..

Lowrider car culture began in Los Angeles, California, in the mid-to-late 1940s, and grew during the post-war prosperity of the 1950s within Mexican-American youth culture. In 1959, a customizer named Ron Aguirre developed a way of bypassing the law with the use of hydraulic Pesco pumps and valves that allowed him to change ride height at the flick of a switch.

@@Carlosgto2012 The Zoot suits, the original low riders come from the Black Culture from out of Harlem. That piece of Black Culture gave Mexicans an identity in those times when they weren't looked at as being American. Mafioso Rap come from the Italian mob.
@@Carlosgto2012Afraid not, Chico, but your Zoot-suit wearing ancestors got that style, inspired from the Black gangsters from the 40s -- which was very distinct from the mob. Blacks always lead the path when it came to style in fashion and dance; and that's not a secret. Perhaps you need to learn more about our culture, instead of taking wild guesses, and shooting low-key shade. You new breed Hispanics ain't like the ones from the 90s, who would have embraced that fact.
My Aunt Alma was an OG chola who went to Roosevelt High in LA. Tough as nails and always had her make up as sharp as the razors she used to keep in her hair. 🖤
No - actually the whole Dickies & white Ts with the Chuck Taylor all stars was a white preppy thing way back in the 50s & in the 60s Mexicans adopted into their whole cholo Zuit Suit lifestyle, with low riders & all that - blacks started using the dress code in Cali cause that was what it was in Cali & when rap became popular NWA dressed like that cause they know what time it is - shit looks firme & the Cali blacks grew up surrounded by low riders & the Mexican culture & naturally adapted to the lifestyle - VATOS LOCOS POR VIDA esse

black gang members start dressing like this there was no such thing as Hip Hop Mexicans were still wearing zoot suits which came from the South black man made the Zoot Suit couldn't wear regular suits. Dickie suits made us look uniforms
I@@damianplasencia2708It's tru bro. Real Mexicans fashion is cowboy hats and boots.,.. baggy pants and dark shades and Dickey's. That's all early 90 hip hop, that they seen and then put they own flavor too 😂
A chicano is an american but with a mexican background. All chicanos should be proud of their heritage and the place where they where born as well as understand the struggle of their parents and how much the chicano culture is rooted on their mexican heritage. But dont forget u are not mexican u are an american with a great future and proud to represent both flags both countries.
A great number of Chicanos don't claim Mexicans if anything they make fun of them, I have a homie I was chilling with and I noticed it was Cinco de Mayo I said something to him about it as if showing appreciation to celebrate it he looked at me like what the fuck you think i am I ain't no bean picker homie. I'm not Mexican I'm Chicano" and then he laughed to be really honest, I felt kind of embarrassed😮
That makes no sense. So in other words, a Chicano is a Mexican-American -- but with African-American influences. The latter makes sense, because though y'all don't admit it, African is a small part of your lineage. You all dismiss the Olmecs, ignore the fact that the first president of Mexico was an ex-slave, and ignore and segregate your indigenous Black population in Mexico. Gringos look at y'all as second class citizens (pushing us to third-class status), but you new breed now act just like them, as they are now pitting you, against us, like they did the Irish and Italians, before you all became large in numbers. And y'all falling for it.
Ok, the person that dont make sense is u. 1st we are not decendents from black people we are decendent from indians and spaniords which are the people who enslave and conquered mexico, now we can debate which indian blood we have but that is not relevant as some mexicans have only indian blood and some only have spanish blood. Please if u are going to be ignorant dont start commenting on something u have no idea of. Beside we are not talking about black people that u can keep it in ur closet. 2nd a person born in a country is identify from that country. What does that mean. If u took chicano studies in college which it shows that u did not is the struggle of americans born to mexican parents and finding an identity and why they feel they dont belong as mexicans or americans. But the fact remains chicano is a word that identifies and put a label on a group of people born in america with cultural, background , and mexican heritage, yet they are not mexican they are american. 3rd anyone born in america or usa is an american so all chicanos are american not mexican. Sooo get that into ur head they are american. Now chicanos do blend both the cultural and heritage of their mexican upbringing with how they identify and how they go with their life. Yet at the end they are american.
Again a chicano is an american with mexican parents. The label of chicano is only an appropriation in order to identify itself. What u need is to take chicano study courses since u are responding to this comment. Maybe there u will understand the beginnings of the american with mexican parents. I hope u understand the being ignorant and responding to comments that u have no idea what they are makes u dumb.
Back back in the day late 70’s. When I was low riding lifted 70 camero We were shocked that Japan was into low riding/ dressing like home boys / home girls 👍👍👍
Yea as an Asian person I find that interesting too. I think Asians may be more open to adopting new cultures in general and something that isn’t inherently western and more on the edgy side may be appealing especially in societies with low crime.

Correct the ones that do appreciate Americana in general, I send 3 to 5 hotrods and American bases vehicles to Japan a month. They enjoy are style the same as we enjoy Japanese vehicles
@@timcahill7792I guess you work for a government auction company. I saw a documentary about low rider type vehicles seized by the feds. The cars are only auctioned off to Japanese. It had something to do with the cars being connected to gangs and drug dealing.

It's similar to the Geisha tradition that is named for "Ge" which is short for Gaia another wife of Noah also called Tytea as in Thai TEA (tea originates in China) and Aishia "Asia" the granddaughter of Noah and the tradition began in China before it was later adopted by the descendants of Japheth-Nese "Japanese" the son of Noah the ancestor of the people of Japan.
The name for the Mexican Mariachi and Marichi (one letter difference) Romanized as Marīci which means "ray of light" the son of Brahma and on the movie La Bamba when on the radio their announcing the death of Ritchie Valens and his mother Connie Valenzuela played by Rosanna DeSoto says, "not my Richie".
The string bands such as Mariachi have been popular in Mexico since the colonial era which began in 1521 and that happens to be around the same time that people from India arrived in Mexico.
@@projectreracccty4764 "Gei" comes from the Japanese "芸" which means an art, performance or trick like the words 芸人 = performer or 芸道 = arts
Nothing to do with religion.
Our culture is beautiful. ❤

Meh
What do you think about these new so called Chicanos using the N Word...??
This video is describing mexican AMERICAN 90s gang culture.... if "your" culture is so beautiful, why are so many running from it?

Sad Girl is such a Babydoll😍 Us chicanos love it.
Honestly this is my favorite fashion culture, hands down❤️
Maybe out west but the East Coast and the South we got our Own Style
and Asians don't embrace that style
Yes they do , Asian been jackin our Stlye for years which is HIP-HOP Culture from NYC to ATL
Nah it’s a west coast thing my boy get it right. We influence the world 🌎
east and south have a shitty style.West coast is most copied style in the world whether its black or brown
The very sample of this song that you hear is from a black group in the 1970s called *'DELEGATION'* which consists of three BLACK MEN.
I was born and raised with Mexicans in L.A. in the 1970s and 1980s.
*EVERYTHING* that Chicanos do outside of eating tacos is *BLACK*
The LA lowriding culture was originally by black Americans from Long Beach, California.
The zoot suits that Chicano men enjoy wearing back in the 1940s and 50s was invented by black men in Harlem, NY.
Mexican people who live in Los Angeles, California were 100% enhanced by black American culture.
Facts 💯... Foundational Blk American culture and style.
Chicano culture has been popular in Japan for decades now! It’s not a surprise.cant wait to start restoring my own classic car.
Don't wear that shit
I am Brazilian and I live in Japan and I have enjoyed Chicano culture for about 25 years, now I am 43 viva Mexico homies 🇧🇷 🫱🏾🫲🏽🇲🇽 and 🇯🇵
Man I didn't do it for fashion I was gangbanging not even thinking of cultur until I hit prison then I get home everyone dressing like I did and whe I hit them up they don't even know what that is. You really shouldn't dress like this expecting not to get hit up.
Lame foo, dressed like that to be a gangster? I dressed like this because that’s all we could afford that’s the basis of our roots not to look hard. Most fools in most ghettos dress like this, hitting people just to bang is lame.
FACTS
Great story Ese !🤦
Good point you made. I rock with flannels and Dickies pants without drawing attention upon myself. Also, I have no tattoos, etc. Never been hit up bcuz out in the public or streets, I tend to mind my own business....that always works for me.
If you did time, then you know that Chicano culture is actually remixing and copying Foundational Blk American style and culture. Even the song playing in the background is a remix of a Foundational Blk American R&B song. Nuff said 🔥
Oh, my best friends growing up we’re Chicano old school children as we had a good time together I particularly loved the fact that they like my peoples kind of music they like soul music they like black music and we would have such a good time making dedication over the radio Dancing doing our make up and our hair I was always treated well by their families. We were also one of the few African-American Catholic families in the church. I was raised Catholic and most of my friends went to Catholic school, but we have a very multi racial family, which includes Cuban and I enjoyed being part of my Chicano friends families because they always treated me and my brothers like family and it was a blessing. Never be afraid to admire and participate another peoples cultures. You missed out on a lot if you do.
I love my Mexican brothas and sistas much respect from canada
Respect to anybody that loves our culture👍🏽🍺❤️🇲🇽
You mean Black American culture, since y'all copy and cosplay us the most ✊🏿💪🏿🤴🏿🇺🇲
It's a standard above the rest, Chicano pride on every aspect of culture and man kind that's why it was shun down by the normies or the outsiders! It's at our core that this expression is derived from, all the way to our roots by embarcing every aspect of our history, art and creative culture.
Im from New Orleans, i Love Chicano culture and clothing its fresh 😊👍
THATS RIGHT CHICANO POWER..
It’s not a fashion statement , ITS A LIFESTYLE
Chicano culture is Black Culture with “Chicano” as the label. Wearing Bandanas, Low-Riders, Graffiti aka Street Art is everything West Coast Black ppl were doing in the late 60s and 70s. I’ve been to Mexico, and Mexicans who are proud of their heritage/ country don’t even dress that way or do graffiti. Even the song in this video comes from a song Tupac did called “Po N!99a Blues” 😂😂😂
You're completely 100% wrong. Lowriders came from mexican-americans all the way from the 50s and even earlier, back then they didn't even bounce, they simply lowered the suspension a lot which is where the name Lowrider came from. The clothes and style all have origins from the pachucos during the Zoot suit era, chicanos who got imprisoned also created new styles such as the long socks, while also adopting the cortez because of the cesar cortez thing and workwear because of their humble origins in the hood.
The reason why you don't see mexicans like that in México Is because chicano culture is looked down on over there, obviously because of the gangbanging aspect, there's also a big beef between chicanos and mexicans because of the treatment that mexicans used to get from mexican-americans in the past. Basically mexicans hate chicano culture because to them it's shameful to be associated with people who managed to get better opportunities yet still prefered the vida loca, while also hating it because of pure resentment after years of being looked down on by chicanos.
Black people used to dress like that during the 70s-90s but to say that raza took it from them? It's the other way around, that's why during the 90s the amount of black guys in flannels and dickies dropped a little, by the 2000s they were already non existent, replacing all that attire with brands such as fubu, g-unit, southpole, crown holder, red monkey and more. Chicanos even up to this day still preserve all this because it's already a culture beyond gangbanging, african americans on the other hand simply got out of the bus after they kept developing their own style, nothing wrong with that but this? 100% raza, no dissing or anything, it's just a way of life.
@@K-EntZXWrong. Foundational Blk Americans originated low riders.. It started when Blk Americans in the military came back to the USA after WW2. ...

Im so glad somebody said it, Dont get it twisted, Chicano culture is beautiful, but it is copied from black culture, Japan has been mimicing hip hop culture for some time now. All the lowrider music a large majority is black artist period. Its about respect , We black people have always been the blue print . Your welcome.

The term came into popular use by Mexican Americans as a symbol of pride during the Chicano Movement of the 1960s. The Chicano community created a strong political and cultural presence in response to years of social oppression and discrimination in a predominantly Caucasian American society.
( FOR THE BLACK PPL IN THE COMMENTS) 🤣
I'm white and grew up in south Texas and didn't even know we were dressing like cholos or pachuco?
Thats just the way we rolled?

NWA😎❤🔥
It’s not Chicano style, it’s Southern California street style! Chicanos just kept it longer but the blacks moved on creating new trends
Lowrider car culture began in Los Angeles, California, in the mid-to-late 1940s, and grew during the post-war prosperity of the 1950s within Mexican-American youth culture. In 1959, a customizer named Ron Aguirre developed a way of bypassing the law with the use of hydraulic Pesco pumps and valves that allowed him to change ride height at the flick of a switch.

They're heavily influenced by the Black culture starting in the 1940s.
Black culture from the 1940s? Didn’t you guys get your whole style and gangster swag from the Italians?
@@Carlosgto2012 The Zoot suits, the original low riders come from the Black Culture from out of Harlem. That piece of Black Culture gave Mexicans an identity in those times when they weren't looked at as being American. Mafioso Rap come from the Italian mob.
@@Carlosgto2012Afraid not, Chico, but your Zoot-suit wearing ancestors got that style, inspired from the Black gangsters from the 40s -- which was very distinct from the mob. Blacks always lead the path when it came to style in fashion and dance; and that's not a secret. Perhaps you need to learn more about our culture, instead of taking wild guesses, and shooting low-key shade. You new breed Hispanics ain't like the ones from the 90s, who would have embraced that fact.
@@Carlosgto2012 The black moors are the ones that gave the peasant Italians their culture.
This is true, Harlem in the 1940’s was the epicenter of American counterculture

Salve los chicano!muy admiracion y respeto!!
Actually they copied Blacks especially in MUSIC 🎵🎶🎵 .
Shows what you know, thats our culture since the 50s maybe earlier BROWN PRIDE 🇲🇽
No - actually the whole Dickies & white Ts with the Chuck Taylor all stars was a white preppy thing way back in the 50s & in the 60s Mexicans adopted into their whole cholo Zuit Suit lifestyle, with low riders & all that - blacks started using the dress code in Cali cause that was what it was in Cali & when rap became popular NWA dressed like that cause they know what time it is - shit looks firme & the Cali blacks grew up surrounded by low riders & the Mexican culture & naturally adapted to the lifestyle - VATOS LOCOS POR VIDA esse
Blacks copied the lowriding and the dickies.

A chicano is an american but with a mexican background. All chicanos should be proud of their heritage and the place where they where born as well as understand the struggle of their parents and how much the chicano culture is rooted on their mexican heritage. But dont forget u are not mexican u are an american with a great future and proud to represent both flags both countries.
A great number of Chicanos don't claim Mexicans if anything they make fun of them, I have a homie I was chilling with and I noticed it was Cinco de Mayo I said something to him about it as if showing appreciation to celebrate it he looked at me like what the fuck you think i am I ain't no bean picker homie. I'm not Mexican I'm Chicano" and then he laughed to be really honest, I felt kind of embarrassed😮
That makes no sense.
So in other words, a Chicano is a Mexican-American -- but with African-American influences. The latter makes sense, because though y'all don't admit it, African is a small part of your lineage. You all dismiss the Olmecs, ignore the fact that the first president of Mexico was an ex-slave, and ignore and segregate your indigenous Black population in Mexico. Gringos look at y'all as second class citizens (pushing us to third-class status), but you new breed now act just like them, as they are now pitting you, against us, like they did the Irish and Italians, before you all became large in numbers. And y'all falling for it.
Ok, the person that dont make sense is u.
1st we are not decendents from black people we are decendent from indians and spaniords which are the people who enslave and conquered mexico, now we can debate which indian blood we have but that is not relevant as some mexicans have only indian blood and some only have spanish blood. Please if u are going to be ignorant dont start commenting on something u have no idea of. Beside we are not talking about black people that u can keep it in ur closet.
2nd a person born in a country is identify from that country. What does that mean. If u took chicano studies in college which it shows that u did not is the struggle of americans born to mexican parents and finding an identity and why they feel they dont belong as mexicans or americans. But the fact remains chicano is a word that identifies and put a label on a group of people born in america with cultural, background , and mexican heritage, yet they are not mexican they are american.
3rd anyone born in america or usa is an american so all chicanos are american not mexican. Sooo get that into ur head they are american. Now chicanos do blend both the cultural and heritage of their mexican upbringing with how they identify and how they go with their life. Yet at the end they are american.
Again a chicano is an american with mexican parents. The label of chicano is only an appropriation in order to identify itself. What u need is to take chicano study courses since u are responding to this comment. Maybe there u will understand the beginnings of the american with mexican parents. I hope u understand the being ignorant and responding to comments that u have no idea what they are makes u dumb.
Because it was black first
Only the zoot suits and oldies

Yea as an Asian person I find that interesting too. I think Asians may be more open to adopting new cultures in general and something that isn’t inherently western and more on the edgy side may be appealing especially in societies with low crime.
