when keeping it real goes wrong

Chappelle show skit that satirizes a situation where a person decides to act on impulse or acts uninhibited by social mores or norms (i.e. "keeping it real") which usually leads to adverse and often times unexpected results.

When keeping it real goes wrong in a board meeting at your corporate job when someone mimics, coopts, or imitates your culture in a condescending way and seeks your affirmation in doing so. (i.e. "Give me some skin, dawg"). Also referred to as "actin' your color"
