Cult of Los Angeles is the new...

Cult of Los Angeles is the new black, again...I may have a particular understanding of what that means, but I totally understand if anyone has no idea what I am trying to convey.

My question is this,

"Why is it that whatever is the new hot business, the new dope market leaning, the brand and spanking new fashion is called the new black? If this is some new metric, then what happened to the "black"? Is "black" then sublimated to an arch-metric? Or is it the recycled out of tense loser, again and again to whatever new blond make-up, style icon brand that "becomes the new black? What is this all about and who are the authorities that govern these types of things? I'm performing an investigation. More on this later Cult...
