The truth is although some African people have unique features, any one of them could be from anywhere. Rick Ross could literally be from anywhere in west and central Africa, same with most of the examples used.

you can look like any tribe, but members of your own family will look drastically different because some of those features actually come from everybody being mixed with not only all the west african groups but also white, native american, or even chinese in america. especailly for ADOS who look somalian but almost certainly have no east african heritage

A lot of Igbo aren't as dark me despite being full African.
That's because there's a lot (not most) of lighter skinned Igbo in Nigeria compared to Yoruba and Hausa. I believe that's where redbone started from.

Yea, even without being mixed, people can still look similar to others. Some people just haven't met many Africans at all, which isn't surprising because in America were a very small minority.

Trying to differentiate bantus by country is like trying to differentiate hans chinese by province.
What do you mean? Bantu peoples are incredibly diverse in looks and cultures.

Do you really think that group of people that cover around half the continent of Africa?

That has a population of 350-400 million.

That has mixed with Central African pygmies (Central African Bantu peoples), Nilotics, Cushytic & Eastern hunter-gatherers (East African Bantu peoples) and the Khoisan (Southern African Bantu peoples).

Are going to be similar to each other phenotypically, culturally and genetically?

Bantu peoples - Wikipedia


and diddy doesn't look like a horner. Ill give her Kerry, but that's about it. Zambians look no different than Zimbabwe as they are apart of the same ethnic group separated by artificial lines.
At the bolded part - True to a certain extent. The main reason that some Zambians and Zimbabweans look similar is due to geographic location and not necessarily due to ethnic ties,as both countries have different ethnic populations within the countries. Also before anybody states that, "The borders of Africa are 'artificial'." Newsflash all polity borders are, have been and always will be artificial.
As a basic rule of thumb - genetic relatedness is proportional to geography. In other words, the closer ethnic groups are to each other geographically, the closer they are related to each other... on average.
