And saying hip-hop was a racial mix from the start is nothing but accurate. To say the originators weren't majority black would also be wrong. To say Azaelia Banks can claim to have originated hip hop because she's black is also wrong. To say Kobe Bryant stole basketball from me would be laughable and idiotic. To say one of those original non-black participants at Kool Herc parties or cats bombing 70's NYC were just visitors borrowing from Kendrick Lamar is obnoxiously obtuse.
