However, unfortunately, another caucasian band culturally appropriating music and name from Africa. Sigh.

It's one thing for Pat Boone to steal Chuck Berry Tunes and if nobody in the band has any connection to Africa maybe they shouldn't have afro in their name but I want more bands like Tower of Power the Saturday Night Live band and I don't feel people would be appropriating Oakland or New York culture. (I don't go to links I know nothing about)
