hip hop gonna be on some elvis shit?? wtf u talkin about. eminem has been out for almost 15 years name me another white rapper who has sold a million copies since then or one that has cracked the hip hop top ten.
Riiight. He's also the only rapper consistently selling albums 4 and 5x's platinum when most struggle to go gold and doesn't take a rocket scientist to see why (hint: It has alot to do with his lack of melanin). Hip Hop has taken some time to control but they're starting to get it...You'll see..
You already have the numerous white hip hop fans who say certain white rappers are "more hip hop" than (insert black mainstream rapper name here).
only one that i think MAYBE done it is Bubba Sparks and look where the fuck his career is now UNDEGROUND!!!! only white rappers around now are underground, Haystack, Maclemore, Asop, ect
Wrong. There are a string of white rappers getting record deals and being pushed into the public now more than ever. Mac Miller, Asher Roth, Yelawolf, Kreayshawn, White Girl Mob, Machine Gun Kelly, etc. Again, These takeovers take time, whitey waited and now he's about to make his move to turn hip hop into the white mans music. Bubba Sparks and all those other white rappers were just "testing the water".
Hell XXL recently did a major article entitled "2011: Year of the white rapper"

These silly white hoes are just the tip of the iceberg..
even Em has an underground style of rappin just that Dre put him on is the only reason he blew up.
HAD an underground style..He hasn't had that style since the Marshall Mathers LP. He's been doing full blown pop songs since The Eminem Show..back when he signed 50 and became "gangster" Em.
and Em wasnt the 1st great white hope Beasty boys and MC Search been respected since the 80s
Beasties weren't just hip hop they had punk rock thing going for them too and MC Serch is a white dude who rocked a flat top and rapped about how evil the white man was...that's why he is or was respected.
and yeah rap is most deff more suburban but i blame that on "black flight" in the 90's up to now when blacks have been increasingly moving from inner cities to the burbs not because an influx of white rappers...
What? Boy, fix your reading comprehension. I never said rap music was more "suburban" because of an influx of white rappers. I said it was less "urban" and more "suburban" because whitey (meaning the record execs) have more control of what they push down peoples throats NOW more than ever with Clear Channel having a monopoly on radio, etc. The influx of white rappers is the result of rap becoming more "suburban".
Blacks are still disproportionately more prone to poverty, have higher HS dropout rates,are unemployed moreso than other groups and are arrested at higher rates. Yet the music doesn't reflect that no more. Gangsta rap is now "friendlier" because it's been reduced to brainless cartoonish type violence and street anthems (Waka, Gucci, Ross, etc.). While the politically conscioius rap has been reduced to egotistical, uneducated assumptions (Kanye, Lupe, etc.). Notice how none of the mainstream conscious rappers like Lupe rarely (if ever) criticize the white folks...The idiot even suggested that people NOT vote which is a slap in the face to all of those civil rights workers who were attacked with rocks, hoses and K9 units..
and quit actin like u black.. only white people say "whitey" when they are complaining bout blacks. only time i ever herd WHITEY and THE MAN is in blaxplotation moves in the 70's
I'm sorry what is "acting" black? I'm simply being myself..I could care less if you like my usage of the word "whitey" or where the word comes from. I will continue to say whatever words I choose..
