I have thought on this. I think there's some resentment of the community, which produces pieces of the culture we enjoy. The individualism we are raised to feel counters this some, and imo limits the art.
This is so far outside my actual expertise, though. I just lost it once when a guy was making some racist comment while watching a rap battle. Like wth guy, why do you want to watch this if you don’t like them? So my limited thoughts were through that lens.
A different aspect of the same phenomenon: As a small child in the 6Os, I found it 'interesting' that all around me white people were going to great lengths to get as brown as possible, all while despising people who were born that way.
They ( the 85% of the population that claims the remaining 15% are the source of all their problems 🙄) may be experiencing non-creative non-productive problems & feeling of stagnation.
