Boonery

The practice of white musicians covering black music in acoustic and adult contemporary styles that are more palatable to white audiences.

Named for noted negro music borrower Pat Boone.
Man, the boonery on Youtube is insane! I tried to find my favorite Kendrick/Rihanna/Beyonce track, but I had to go through 6 pages of white kids playing guitar and piano in their bedrooms!
