>Graceland is just Simon stealing from black people
He consulted and worked with multiple African / black musicians during the album process. That's not what stealing is. That'd be like saying EVERY time a white guy makes a funk or jazz album it's stealing, and that's a ridiculous implication.

>The American group Los Lobos appears on the track "All Around the World or the Myth of Fingerprints". The Los Lobos saxophone player, Steve Berlin, said Simon "stole" the song from them: "We go into the studio, and he had quite literally nothing. I mean, he had no ideas, no concepts, and said, "Well, let's just jam." ... Paul goes, "Hey, what's that?" We start playing what we have of it, and it is exactly what you hear on the record."[4] He said Los Lobos had never received a song credit or payment.[4]
>According to Berlin, when he contacted Simon about the lack of credit, Simon responded, "Sue me. See what happens."[4]

Is Los Lobos black?

It clearly says in his post that Los Lobos are an American group. So yes, or at least 56%.
