hip hop is a universal culture that white people have had a hand in as artists, b-boys, producers, djs and execs from the beginning.....


Black artists who think that being 15% of America and getting most of their concert ticket and album sales from white people will not inspire white people to rap are stupid. if you say "hip hop is getting white" and its not in the context of what scarface was talking, u r dumb. Hip hop is by all people for all people. white artists like Em who carry on the history and show love to the people that came before them are fine in my book. Action Bronson is a walking advertisement for the history of wutang, while black artists(some) dont show love to people that came five years before them and start stupid twitter beefs with older artists. Even a Kid Rock interview is filled with his love for black hip hop artists from way back.

the record labels who put artists like G Rap and Rakim in some isolation even though they can still rap, and radio stations who dont show love to older artists by not at least spitting some history lesson now and then are the culprits.

follow me @oldirtyplaster on the Twitter thing.....i say awesome stuff
