Wow. This guy needs a refresher course in what MLK stood for. I surely can't speak for him, but I'd be willing to bet that MLK himself would say that it shouldn't take a black artist to interpret his message, and if it does, then his message wasn't accurately received.

ETA: I just saw what DS last wrote... looks like we agree on this point.
