Surface rubbing can refer to:
1.) Copying somebody's music style; biting, but to a far larger extent - rather than replicating their style, like what happened to autotuning, the music sounds almost identical.
2.) Trying to replicate someone's way of life.
3.) Try to become a higher social status by replicating someone's behavior, thought to be edgy or cool.
