If you're not particularly xenophobic or ethnocentric, you might find parts of other cultures to be interesting or cool. So you might have the urge to at least once in a while try to imitate part of that culture, like the dialect, slang, or accent. Now the problem is that you don't have a deep understanding of the culture's origins and meanings, so you should at least pay close attention to what you are about to imitate, preferably with some practice beforehand.
If you don't, you will look silly at the very least imitating shallow and superficial elements of a particular culture. Worse, in fiction (and on the Internet), wars have started that way.
The most common form of this is likely just trying to imitate a dialect. The most notorious form is middle class suburban white kids imitating urban black culture. Note that it's the middle-class culture, not the race, that determines whether someone's a poser. You can be Asian, Native American, Ambiguously Brown, or even African American, and still not be able to imitate the urban culture. The end result of this usually sounds Totally Radical to natives of said culture. These people are sometimes called "wiggers", a portmanteau of combining the words "white" (or "wannabe" since the person in question may not be white) and a certain racial slur that white people generally avoid using (except for these guys, often with hilarious consequences).
Another variation is white people, usually otaku, who are obsessed with Japanese culture. These people are often called "Wapanese" or, due to the efforts of 4chan, "weeaboos."note It is often said that you can still like the Japanese culture and not be a weeaboo, but if you reject your native culture in favor of a stereotyped and distorted image of Japanese culture formed from only consuming highly stylized media, that is being a weeaboo.
Contrast Mighty Whitey for when a white person enters a non-white culture and becomes its greatest member, and The Whitest Black Guy for when one has trouble fully-identifying with one's own group. In terms of gender, Camp Gay and Camp Straight can be described as Pretty Feminine for a Man (or Pretty Gay for a Straight Guy in the latter case), while the Butch Lesbian and The Lad-ette can be described as Pretty Masculine for a Woman.

Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony has Yusuf Amir, a real estate developer and son of an Arab Oil Sheikh who has a fascination with hip-hop and "gangsta" culture, which he tries to emulate — and that includes saying the N-word a lot, even though the main protagonist Luis finds it offensive (unsurprising given he is a black Latino of Dominican descent). In Yusuf's defense, though, he doesn't know the context behind the word and he just thinks it's something Western people call each other.

Chappelle's Show:
Clayton Bigsby, a Blind Black Guy who doesn't know he's black and became a white supremacist, is being driven around by his friend and they pass a convertible full of white teens listening to rap. Assuming they're black, he leans out the window and yells racial abuse at them. Far from being offended, the teens are absolutely thrilled, thinking that this random black guy they've never seen before calling them the N-word means that they're street enough to have earned his approval.
Parodied with the "I Know Black People" sketch, which was a game show asking mostly white contestants about black culture. Many of them fell into this trope and some would get basic questions wrong. However, a Running Gag was that they would get the answers right because the answers to the questions would frequently be basic answers like "I don't know".

Us: Winston may be a black man, but he's a decidedly upper-middle-class black man who drives a luxury SUV and owns a lake house and a boat. We see him early on playing the classic '90s rap song "I Got 5 on It" on the car's stereo and singing along, to which his kids respond with embarrassment. He makes for a sharp contrast with his "tethered" double Abraham, who exhibits all the characteristics of a Scary Black Man.

Machine Gun Kelly gives off this impression. He often dresses in 'urban' clothing much in the way people in the ghetto do and tends to try to act "gangsta" in his songs (a good example of this being "Warning Shot").

MADtv had a spoof of Limp Bizkit's "Rollin'", titled "Posin'", which opens with Will Sasso as Fred Durst addressing his fanbase of "angry suburban white boys" how they can be "funky, fly, and fresh like your bitch ass", to which he replies, "act like you're black." The rest of the video has him decking out a pair of fratbros in gold chains and teaching them how to act "street", causing one of the backup dancers to start shaking her head.

Skins plays with this a little. Jal's two brothers have a white friend who fits this perfectly. Somewhat subverted, in that the brothers' own attempts at being "street" are shown to be just as ludicrous.

There are some who believe Elvis Presley "stole" the music of African American artists, in part because of a comment from his record producer stating that black music would be more palatable to white audiences if it was being sung by a white man, referring to Presley. However, those in opposition to the claim point out Presley's own admonishment of his success and title as the "King of Rock & Roll"; among other things, Presley publicly stated that Fats Domino was "the real King of Rock & Roll" and that he himself only got the title because he was white.

Grottomatic has produced its fair share of soul music, mostly because Tim Stevens, who is white, listened to a lot of jazz, soul, and hip-hop in his younger years and took a lot of influence from it.

Teen Witch: This very eighties movie involved rapping by very white people. However, hip hop was still a very young genre at the time of filming, with many of its conventions still unformed, so it's more a case of Totally Radical.

Justified with John "Bradshaw" Layfield. He may have gotten his start as a beer-swilling Texas football player and ended his time in wrestling as Wall Street tycoon type, but that's because he actually is both. He was known as far back as his being an Acolyte to have a knack for the stock market. He went on to become a millionaire from it, sold a book on finance management, and has been featured on the cover of Fortune. He even met his wife on the set of the business show Bulls & Bears, where he was a regular guest.

Grand Theft Auto V has two examples. One is Jimmy de Santa, who's your typical example that listens to rap music, speaks in hip-hop slang, and says the word "nigga" a lot. Then there's Trevor Philips, one of the three Player Characters, who at one point just thrusts himself into a drug deal with the Gangbangers Franklin Clinton (one of the other player characters) and Lamar Davis for kicks. He knows he doesn't have N-Word Privileges, though, as he refers to Franklin as "[his] N-word." He's also a legitimately terrifying gangster in his own right, so he's certainly not just pretending to be a tough guy.

True Romance: The pimp played by Gary Oldman believes that he's black, but he's actually a mix of several races. He makes a great show of incorporating stereotypically black speech mannerisms, wears dreadlocks, and makes racist comments against white people he meets.

10 Things I Hate About You: When Michael is showing Cameron around the school, one of the cliques he points out is the White Rastas, who "think they're black" but "mostly smoke a lot of weed."

The webseries No Evil has a very limited voice cast and a lot of characters who are clearly meant to be people of color. Additionally, it mixes around a lot of Native American and colonial American mythologies in a way that could raise some questions about appropriation, though whether or not it's a negative form is up for debate.

Idiocracy: Collins. Interestingly, he seems to hit it off pretty well with Upgrayedd ("With two D's for a 'double dose' of his pimping"), if his slide show is anything to go by. Part of the reason that the plot happens, furthermore, is that Collins ends up getting arrested by military police. It's implied that he took to the pimping lifestyle a little too closely...

J.D.'s attempts in Scrubs at acting black usually fall disastrously short. Turk is generally more successful but is nonetheless called on this behavior when Dr Cox claims Turk isn't really black. Some of Dr. Cox's evidence is that Turk has a geeky white best friend, listens to Neil Diamond, and acts like a black guy, all of which are traits seen in white guys. Dr. Cox also mentions that Turk is merely the tenth best basketball player out of the mostly white hospital staff. This is partly a result of the show's shifting characterization and Flanderization: early seasons played off the pairing of JD and Turk much more, with Turk having a much more authentically "urban" persona with a geeky, nerdy streak. Then there was that time Turk got schooled on black culture by the two whitest chicks in the hospital.

Boogeyman of Milestone's Blood Syndicate was the Token White of the predominantly black and Latino team of ex-gangbangers. His power is that he was a were-rat, meaning that the rest of the team doesn't even know he's white. He hangs with the Syndicate because it excites him — unlike the rest of the group, he comes from a stable middle-class household. He also talks like he just stepped out of a rap video, though this might be his way of disguising his race.

Kenny-Boy from Reservation Dogs is a white guy who lives on a Muscogee reservation and seems to think he is a Native, constantly going on about Native culture and engaging in it's mores, like insisting on using kinship terms. His Native neighbors and friends try to repeatedly point out to him that he is not, in fact, part of any tribe, but eventually everyone just kind of gives up and lets him do it. Notably, unlike a lot of examples, he's genuinely knowledgable about the culture he's aping, supports indingenous rights, and in general, he acts remarkably authentic; it's sometimes easy to forget that he's not actually Muscogee in any way.

Homestuck: Dave Strider and his Bro are, as described by Dave himself, "ironic rapping roof ninjas". Not much of Bro's work is seen (but plenty is seen of his love of puppeteering), but Dave was known to burst into improvised rap early on, he has a sizable array of sampling equipment and turntables, he sent Jade a collection of techno remix efforts of questionable quality, and in Sburb he even controls his time powers through augmented turntables. While Jade is impressed by it all, John and Rose don't really buy it all that much, and love to snark about or criticise it at many opportunities.
After having to clarify that the humans in Homestuck are aracial, Andrew changed 'white' in the above quote to '�æûë€Å', though it's since been changed back. He did this mainly to try and quell a Flame War on the forums.
Lil' Cal, one of Bro's puppets, is designed to look like one of these characters. He's even named after an Uncle Tomfoolery type character in the author's earlier works.

Grand Theft Auto:
OG Loc (real name Jeffrey Cross) from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is a variation, in that he actually is a black man from South Central, but it quickly becomes apparent that he's pretty bad at trying to be 'gangsta'. He does manage to make a career as a gangsta rapper out of it for a while, but that's only because he has CJ steal the rhyme book of the real gangsta rapper Madd Dogg. When Madd Dogg finds out, he enlists CJ to not only steal back his rhyme book but get some long-overdue payback, in a mission based on how Suge Knight, the real-life head of Death Row Records, extorted Vanilla Ice for the royalties to "Ice Ice Baby" over lyrics allegedly plagiarized from Knight's client Mario Johnson.
Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony has Yusuf Amir, a real estate developer and son of an Arab Oil Sheikh who has a fascination with hip-hop and "gangsta" culture, which he tries to emulate — and that includes saying the N-word a lot, even though the main protagonist Luis finds it offensive (unsurprising given he is a black Latino of Dominican descent). In Yusuf's defense, though, he doesn't know the context behind the word and he just thinks it's something Western people call each other.
Grand Theft Auto V has two examples. One is Jimmy de Santa, who's your typical example that listens to rap music, speaks in hip-hop slang, and says the word "nigga" a lot. Then there's Trevor Philips, one of the three Player Characters, who at one point just thrusts himself into a drug deal with the Gangbangers Franklin Clinton (one of the other player characters) and Lamar Davis for kicks. He knows he doesn't have N-Word Privileges, though, as he refers to Franklin as "[his] N-word." He's also a legitimately terrifying gangster in his own right, so he's certainly not just pretending to be a tough guy.

WWE wrestler John Cena was Pretty Fly For A White Guy as a Heel. Then, he had a Heel–Face Turn, and we were suddenly supposed to take his hip-hop posturing seriously. (It didn't help that he stopped actually rapping after his album was released and just made a lot of gay jokes in a "ghetto" accent.) Needless to say, the Narm thus created has led to massive amounts of X-Pac Heat whenever WWE hits any place that has an actual urban hip-hop culture. Thankfully, these days, he's toned down the hip-hop allusions in favor of becoming, essentially, a Promoted Fanboy, but the X-Pac Heat among Smart Marks may never completely subside.
Side note: Los Angeles has a very large "actual urban hip-hop culture," and Cena gets really loud cheers in L.A.
What Cena has been doing is fundamentally no different from what Elvis Presley did in The '50s. He is a white, upper-middle-class American who, in his soul, does not feel like a white, upper-middle-class American, and acts accordingly. Far from mocking black culture, he is actually celebrating it, while putting a less menacing (white) face on it for his white fans. (And interestingly, Cena's longtime nemesis John "Bradshaw" Layfield was essentially Cena in reverse: a boorish, trailer-park Texan who became obsessed with money and riches, and rebaptized himself as a Wall Street tycoon. This resulted in a bit of Hypocritical Humor when in 2006 JBL was doing a bit of color commentary on SmackDown! where he mocked Anna Nicole Smith; he is, in a way, basically her male equivalent.)

The Law & Order: Criminal Intent, episode "Watch" had the detectives investigating the murder of a black prostitute at an airport and aimed their suspicions towards a white mechanic accused of making racial slurs. It turns out he's just a durag-sporting wannabe rapper who thought he had N-Word Privileges.
"Mad Hops" showed Detective Robert Goren to be surprisingly adept at Basketball court Trash Talk, cuing a jokey Mass "Oh, Crap!" from the kids on the court and one of them throwing him the ball.

One episode of Everybody Loves Raymond spoofed this trope. Ray's brother Robert, desperate to fit in with his African-American partner on the police force and her friends, spends most of the episode trying to act stereotypically "black." Raymond and the rest of the family are bewildered by this. At the end of the episode, Robbie's partner reveals to Ray that Robbie's new behavior is annoying and offending her friends, unsurprisingly. When Ray tells Robert about this, it results in the classic line:

Iggy Azalea has faced criticism for this, as she opts to use an American accent in her raps, specifically AAVE and making some dubious lyrical choices about race.
The fact that she didn't originally rap, but did Britney Spears-esque pop singing, and likely switched to rapping due to how bad she was at singing, makes one question her claims that she supposedly "moved to America to be a rapper".

In the Spenser books by Robert B. Parker, Tony Marcus, the black crimelord, has a white son-in-law who considers himself "spiritually black" and acts accordingly. Tony would have him killed, except that his only daughter has taken it into her head to love the fool. Tony calls this character a "blackberry", which is a little politer than "wigger", but still prompts Spenser to exclaim "There's a word for people like that!?"

Bo Dallas used to do freestyle rap-offs with Adrian Neville and Sami Zayn back in WWE NXT. Then, and without even doing a rapping gimmick at the time, Bo "Rida" beat Grammy Award-winning rapper Flo Rida in a rap battle. Even though commentary and WWE itself tried to spin it the other way, the Internet unanimously declared Bo the winner, and so did a hip hop magazine.

The earlier Adrian Mole books contained the character of Adrian's classmate Danny: who was possibly a white kid who had dreadlocks, wrote reggae music and spoke in a poor imitation of Jamaican Patois. He even referred to Adrian as a "honky". Adrian's response: "What a cheek, he's twice as white as I am!" (However, Adrian also refers to Danny as "the albino rasta"; whether this was just a sarcastic reference to his whiteness, or really indicated he was albino [and therefore may have actually been Afro-Caribbean despite appearing "white"] is unclear.)

In a deleted scene for the episode "Stewie Kills Lois", Stewie sings a musical number (specifically, updated lyrics to "I've Got A Little List" from The Mikado) threatening any "undesirable elements" in society in case of a rebellion against his world conquest. The very first one is "the white kid with the baggy clothes who's talking like he's black", which shows one of these dancing to hip hop in"gangsta" clothing, while a normally dressed white and black kid watch him in contempt.

Legends of Chamberlain Heights: Milk is probably the walking incarnate of a white kid acting black. The only problem is that he’s unable to say the N-word without getting a Dope Slap by one of his friends.

Phineas and Ferb: Phineas tries to sound "street" in one episode by peppering his speech with the word dang. He comes off sounding more like a hillbilly than a gangsta. Ferb, on the other hand, raps pretty good considering the constraints of a Disney cartoon and the fact Ferb is usually The Silent Bob (it helps that his singing voice is provided by the show's musical director).

One of Su Yung most widely used gimmicks. The Premier Athlete Brand basically treated her as "their" black, such as when they sent her to cause a rift between Uhaa Nation and AR Fox in Dragon Gate USA, which didn't work, and when they sent her to seduce Rich Swann in EVOLVE, which did.

In the Death Note manga, some of Mello's dialogue was translated in this manner by some English translators, who felt that this was the best (or at least closest) translation to Mello's extremely informal speech pattern. (Only in some manga translations, not any official translation of the anime.) Interestingly, he seems to adopt a (somewhat) more formal speech pattern (and thus loses this one in the translations) after he gets hurt in an explosion he created.

In Artie's case on Glee: White, nerdy, and wheel-chair bound, he frequently slips into stereotypically "black" slang (usually Rule of Funny), and it's fully expected that this trope is in full play.

In an episode of Reba Reba temporarily takes in a black family who were displaced after Hurricane Katrina (the show took place in Houston). Barbara Jean then turns into this, braiding her hair in cornrows and acting like one stereotype after another. Reba chastises her for this ("You are the whitest person in Texas! You are the whitest person in Holland! Stop that!") At the end of the episode, they receive a letter from the family when they move back to rebuild, and they ask Barbara Jean to visit, since they keep telling people about her, but everybody assumes they're making her up.

The Cleveland Show: Roberta's boyfriend Federline (real name Gabriel Friedman) is a particularly cringeworthy example. Adopting all the surface-level aspects of a stereotypical rapper, the rest of the family views him as annoying and pretentious; Cleveland refers to him as "a lame, inside-out oreo".

David Apolskis on Prison Break. An inmate in the Fox River max-security prison which (like most real-world prisons) is divided along racial lines, he quickly becomes rejected by both black inmates for trying to affiliate himself with them, and by white inmates for trying to affiliate himself with black inmates, earning him the nickname "Tweener" (In-Betweener). Lampshaded by T-Bag, the leader of a white racist gang:

When members of the Japanese-themed Draconis Combine wound up visiting Japan in BattleTech (during and after the conquest of Terra by Stone's Coalition forces during the Word of Blake Jihad), there was a note made of just how annoying actual Japanese people found them as they swarmed the country (and ripped out everything that wasn't nailed down and more than a few things that were to take home as souvenirs).

In The Wheel of Time, after the Aiel conquer Cairhien for the second time in living memory, many young Cairhienen take to imitating Aiel dress and culture, organizing themselves into warrior societies in imitation of them, and attempting to follow (sometimes heavily modified versions of) ji'e'toh, the elaborate Aiel Code of Honor and etiquette. Reactions from the Aiel range from deep offense to mild exasperation to sometimes-earnest, sometimes-patronizing attempts to teach them how to more authentically follow Aiel customs. This is something of an inversion of the usual pattern of a more-powerful culture appropriating a less-powerful one due to exoticism or fetishization; here, it's more about a conquered culture developing an inferiority complex and figuring the conquerors must be doing something right.

This CollegeHumor video "If Gandhi Took A Yoga Class" hypothesizes how Mahatma Gandhi would have reacted to a trendy Western yoga class. The peppy instructor corrects his posture pronunciation (he uses the Hindi name), complains that he's doing everything too slow (traditional yoga isn't a form of exercise), and criticizes his choice of clothing (dhoti instead of typical yoga class wear). Gandhi eventually gets annoyed at the young white students having no idea about the cultural and religious background of yoga (e.g. considering yogalates to be "spiritual", having a Krishna figurine without knowing who he is), about the instructor considering her teacher "Carl Smith" to be a great guru, the room being too hot (traditional yoga is at room temperature), and caring more about trivial things (e.g. fasting for beach season rather than to protest imperialism). He finally storms out when one of the students starts talking about "flowing chakras into his heart center" (complete nonsense to a Hindu).

The Boondocks:
Cindy McPherson. A blonde haired little white girl that runs her girl scout cookie fundraiser like a drug ring and will quote rap artists as inspiration for her behavior. Notably, in the animated series, Cindy appears to be more authentically engrossed in hip-hop culture, while her incarnation in the original comic strip is 100% this trope.
Ed Wuncler III and Gin Rummy from the same show. Both are white and come from affluent families (Ed in particular being the grandson of the wealthiest man in Woodcrest.) Both speak in copious amounts of jive, own lots of firearms that they are willing to whip out with the least excuse, rob convenience stores and banks despite having no pressing financial reason to do so, break into people's houses at night for burglary, and generally act in an over-the-top stereotypical "gangsta'" fashion. Ed and Gin even have African-American voice actors (Charlie Murphy and Samuel L. Jackson respectively) to complete the image.
Bizarrely enough, Ann Coulter is portrayed as being like this in private, speaking in near-Jive Turkey levels of slang and dating black men exclusively, her whole campaign is just a ruse to get money and attention.

Bones (2001): Downplayed with Tia, who comes from a predominantly white gated community. She doesn't use African-American slang, but does wear inner city-style sunglasses and head kerchiefs, while being fully on board with Patrick's plan to revitalize the African-American neighborhood he grew up in by opening a nightclub there. In her first scene, she's also wearing a tank top with pictures of a black celebrity on it.

Phat from X-Statix is the scion of a rich family who poses as a hood rat as a ploy to get into what was at the time X-Force. It worked fantastically; evidently, none of his teammates ever suspected he wasn't actually born and raised in an impoverished inner city home. Angry Black Man teammate the Spike has a problem with the Anarchist, an adopted black man raised by white parents, but not Phat.

Planescape: Torment has a variation: in the upper-middle-class-to-wealthy Clerk's Ward section of Sigil, you meet a group of "Clerk's Ward Thugs" who are poorly attempting to be "street", including hilarious misuse of the in-universe Future Slang common to the Hive (which, as the name implies, is a Wretched Hive). Annah, your party member who actually is from the Hive, makes fun of them and threatens to fight them. If/when you actually come to blows with them, it turns out that while they may know nothing about the Hive, they are quite competent at fighting.

Fraser, the 'headmaster' of Abbey Grove School in Bad Education certainly counts. This is also deconstructed, as he is generally considered by the rest of the cast to be an incompetent Cloud Cuckoolander.

J-Roc from Trailer Park Boys does this and legitimately thinks he is black, which the other park residents have all accepted by now. Hilariously, before he got into rap, Jamie used to dress and act extremely white... and so did his actually black friend Tyler (who now goes by "Tyrone" or simply "T"). J-Roc briefly reverted back to being Jamie after suffering a Heroic BSoD when one of his favourite rappers told him he wasn't black. His mother made him feel better by telling him she dated a lot of black guys around the time he was conceived, so he is believes now he is at least half-black. Though she probably was just making it up.

Saturday Night Live:
One skit (in the episode hosted by John Mulaney) had a white guy going to the wedding of one of his African-American girlfriend's relatives. He's nervous that he won't fit in, but ends up hitting it off and getting along with everyone better than she does.
The "Samurai Night Fever" sketch has Futaba (John Belushi) as an Italian-American youth who affects being a samurai 24/7. His brother (O.J. Simpson) takes this trope to the logical extreme; he decided (and somehow managed) to actually be black back in the '60s.

Punchy in The Intimates doesn't dress like a wannabe hood rat, but definitely talks like one. He does so to put on a "tough" or "cool" front. Other characters notice, and sometimes even insult him for it.

In Catch-22 they obviously hate Yossarian because he's Assyrian. Even if he's not. He isn't too serious about it, though.

Stiletto: The gangster known as Large Bills used to be associated with a Neo-Nazi biker gang until he he abandoned them to ally with a black gang because it was more profitable. He has assimilated well, and become a big fan of black culture (with one character even stating Large bills wishes he could actually be black. He seems to have been accepted by his new allies who even afford him N-Word Privileges.

Bamboozled: Spike Lee's scathing film has a spectrum of these characters, including a black TV executive acting painfully white, his white boss acting painfully black, a multiethnic gangsta rap band living up to all the wrong stereotypes (one of whom is white, yet protests that he's black while being busted by a cop who actually is black), and a TV show that's based around minstrel-show caricatures yet winds up being a hit with audiences of all ethnicities.

This happens to Dr. Joel Fleischman in the Northern Exposure episode "The Mystery of the Old Curio Shop", when Fleischman tries to connect with the "Hebrew Heritage" of Cicely, Alaska. This is slightly subverted by the fact that Fleischman is himself Jewish, yet is still berated for trying to "act Jewish".

In the latest editions of Shadowrun, of the flaws you can take, a few of them are Ork and Elf poser, which makes you the fantasy equivalent.
Elven wannabes/Elf posers find elves 'glamorous' and want to become elves, some even thinking they are elves born in human bodies. Surgery to get elven ears and angular features is common. Depending on how deeply involved the posers become, they can face anything from social penalties to actual transphobic violence, and are generally seen with disdain by elves and as race-traitors by human supremacists.
Ork posers, meanwhile, universally cleave closer to this trope and consist of elves and humans who think ork culture in the sixth world is cool. They tend to dress up as orks, hang around orkish circles in attempt to fit in, run with orks and try to work anti-ork slurs like "tusker" into their vocabulary. Surgery to look orkish is very rare but many take steroids to bulk up their muscles and may wear fake tusks. Orks tend to react badly to ork posers, though the occasional poser can earn a seat at the table through luck, dedication and respect. They're usually seen in the same light as white Gangsta Rap fans were during the early nineties by humans.

The Ghost Goes West: A rather interesting one. Mr. Martin, a Capitalist American, wears a kilt even though he doesn't have one ounce of Scottish blood. Then, when Donald Glourie, an actual Scotsman, shows the tradition of having bagpipers play before dinner, Martin does the same thing when he introduces his new castle in Florida except with jazz musicians. Which comes off as Americanized cultural appropriation of In-universe Scottish traditions.

When the kids get caught they profess their innocence and Romy points out that they assaulted an officer, which would mean time in juvie, where "you can see how much real brothers like rich white kids co-opting their culture, 'dog.'"

Timothy Westwood is a white British DJ and radio personality and the presenter of the UK version of Pimp My Ride. As you'd expect from that and his inclusion on this list he speaks in faux "Black British" street slang with a fake Carribean accent. He went to an exclusive Public School (for the benefit of American readers, in the UK a Public School is one of the top private schools- don't ask, it's complicated) and his father was a bishop. Really.
Mr. B (the Gentleman Rhymer) mocks him splendidly here.
It could be argued that Mr. B's entire act is a deliberate defiance of this trope; proof that you don't need to act black to be a white rapper.
Westwood's fellow BBC radio DJ Nick Grimshaw did a thing in 2013 where he tried to show off his "gangsta side" - turning his breakfast show into "The Breakfast Clique" in reference to the GOOD Music song. While this may have been a joke/spoof/stunt, it doesn't come across well.

Down To Earth (2001): Chris Rock plays a stand-up comedian who dies and whose soul is put into the body of a wealthy middle-aged white guy. So, now you got a typical white board member acting and talking like, well, Chris Rock. To everyone but him, he looks like a typical example of this trope. He even gets punched out once by a pair of black guys for singing along to "Ruff Ryders' Anthem" in a public place, and the audience's reaction when he goes to a comedy club at a black neighborhood and starts to deliver his usual routine is priceless. Then there is an attempt by the white guy's wife (played by Jennifer Coolidge) to act "street" to get his attention.

When Ring of Honor fans aren't logging in to argue against claims that the stars and bars wearing Briscoes being racists, they're doing so to shoot down claims that the Briscoes are trying to act black.

Boardwalk Empire has the bootlegger Mieczyslaw Kuzik who changed his name to Mickey Doyle to better fit in with the Irish gangsters running Atlantic City. He is constantly mocked for it. However, he does not try to act particularly 'Irish' probably because the people he is trying to imitate are well-integrated Irish-Americans who do not fit the stereotypes.

South Park: Eric Cartman double subverts this in "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty Slut" when he's trying to find his real father. He dresses in the outfit in the page image and tries using African-American slang (or at least his understanding of it). The subversion is that Cartman genuinely thinks he's half-black until Chef sets him straight.
This was carried over to the Chef Aid album, where Cartman does much the same when he and the other boys guest on the Wyclef Jean track "Bubblegoose".

While BTS was much more directly influenced by Western rap - with rappers citing OG rappers as influences and being involved with the Korean underground rap scene before joining the group -, their image in their early years fell squarely into this trope, dressing and acting "gangsta" as part of their "Hip-Hop idol group" concept. However, after 2014, a year that involved a trip to Los Angeles to learn about West Coast Hip-Hop's roots and culture for the Reality Show American Hustle Life, the tough-guy "gangsta" image was scrapped for good. RM, rapper and leader of the group, has vocally acknowledged his mistakes on this regard and considers his attitude and hairstyle/fashion choices of that era an Old Shame. More on that here.

Homestar Runner:
In Teen Girl Squad, the girls tend to speak in whatever slang they think is cool, including AAVE. This is parodied in issue 15 where What's Her Face is confused by the school dance being called the "Priggidy Prizom" and feels she needs to brush up on her "white girl gangsta".
As a main-setting Homestar character, it's questionable whether Coach Z fits into any human racial category, but his mannerisms are definitely meant to evoke a middle-aged and rather out-of-touch white guy attempting to sound like a hip young black guy.

A fantastic version appears in For The Emperor. Part of the population of Gravalax, due to being close to the Tau territories, absorbed their ideals and customs and looks up to them. Some go as far as to paint their skin blue. Justified: actually it's the Tyranid infiltration stirring up the Fantastic Racism.

Bulworth: Has Warren Beatty, of all people, becoming one of these as a result of a Hollywood Mid-Life Crisis. He was a US Senator with falling popularity ratings until he snaps and randomly starts rapping at his campaign appearances (he even manages to seduce Halle Berry's character), and it culminates in a TV talk show appearance where he claims that the solution to racism is genetic mixing until "everyone's the same color." Then he gets mysteriously assassinated.

In Girlfriends (2000), bi-racial Lynn's white adoptive sister is this, to the point where she criticizes Black women like Lynn and Joan for not being Black enough. She also thinks she has N-Word Privileges. She does not.

Family Guy:
In one episode, Chris becomes the towel boy for the high school basketball team and picks up some slang and mannerisms from the black players. His father Peter investigates their heritage, with the intention of familiarizing Chris with their Irish roots, and discovers a black slave among his ancestors. Then Peter starts trying to act like a black man and goes entirely too far; wearing a dashiki, insisting that he be called Kichwa Tembo, and demanding reparations from his father-in-law, whose ancestor happened to own his black ancestor. Hilariously, he discards his new identity the moment Carter whips out his checkbook:
In a deleted scene for the episode "Stewie Kills Lois", Stewie sings a musical number (specifically, updated lyrics to "I've Got A Little List" from The Mikado) threatening any "undesirable elements" in society in case of a rebellion against his world conquest. The very first one is "the white kid with the baggy clothes who's talking like he's black", which shows one of these dancing to hip hop in"gangsta" clothing, while a normally dressed white and black kid watch him in contempt.
In another episode, it is revealed that Lois has Jewish ancestry. Peter begins to fulfill the Jewish equivalent of this trope until a visit from the ghost of his hardcore Catholic father turns him into an anti-Semite.
Brian, due to his racist upbringing, barks angrily at a black man. Trying to smooth things over, Brian says how much he liked Benson.

Transformers:
The movie brings us Jazz, an alien robot who deliberately takes on Jive Turkey mannerisms, as Optimus noted that they learned Earth's languages from the web.
When Sam Witwicky is being questioned by the police, he sees one of the cop's guns, and that cop says, "You eyein' my piece, 50 Cent?" Sam lampshades the line, and the short rant that follows, with, "Are you on drugs?"
In the sequel Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen, the Twins are meant to be this according to Word of God. And since, functionally, they're callously imitating black culture as they see it on TV and such, this makes sense. However, as they were neither white nor black but bright orange and bright green, there was little physical anchor for the joke, meaning that most people who saw the movie thought they were meant to be caricatures of actual hood rats.

Durarara!! had a bunch of them in episode 3.
Most infamously, the memetic "Hiroshi": "Yo, Yo, YO! HEY MAN!"
As Simon (the only ACTUAL black person in the show) best put it, "Unfortunately there are guys like these in every country."

One episode of Star Trek: Voyager has a sci-fi example, the Doctor creates a holographic family for himself, and his son starts hanging out with a bunch of Klingon kids, dressing like them, doing his hair like them, and even carrying Klingon knives. For an added level of meta-tude, Klingons are Rubber-Forehead Aliens usually played by black actors.

Jesse on Breaking Bad is an interesting variationnote bitch. He plays it straightest in the early seasons, dressing and acting in a stereotypically "street" way, emulating the drug culture he's been immersed in for seemingly his entire adult life, although his background is affluent. Unlike most examples, he never fully "breaks character" and acts according to his culture of origin, and in fact, in later seasons when he stops acting quite so aggressively "street," he still falls back into street lingo during moments of extreme stress. As far as the viewer can tell, his drug-culture identity is entirely internalized and to that extent is just as genuine as the more moderate (but not fully affluent or "white") cultural identity he sometimes displays. In this way, it's almost more like the phenomenon of "code-switching" that bi- or multi-cultural people sometimes display.

Girls Trip: Ryan's assistant/agent is played by Kate Walsh and tries to be "down" with her boss. Emphasis on "tries." It's more "trying to relate" than full-on "cultural appropriate."

Agon of Eyeshield 21 dresses and behaves somewhat like a gangster, though he at least has the sense not to talk like one. Still, even by Eyeshield standards, he looks rather silly with his long dreads, gold chain, and baggy pants.

My Dad the Rock Star: In "Meet the Zillas", Willy acts and dresses like this in order to purposely tank the ratings of the reality TV show he's inadvertently become the star of. It works.

Stranger Than Paradise: An interesting variety of this is Willy, a Hungarian immigrant to the United States who considers himself assimilated into American culture... which he apparently defines as acting like a 1950s beatnik.
