gentrifunk

Gentrified black music (typically jazz or funk) made to be palatable for white people.

The two hallmarks of a gentrifunk artist are being a white educated virtuoso and being overly-concerned with their aesthetics, with the latter being a lot of retro synths and purposely dressing lame (usually 90s kid fashion).
Gentrifunk? You mean like Vulfpeck, Louis Cole, DOMi & JD Beck, Jacob Collier and Marc Rebillet?
