I'm not a fan of either Iggy's

1. Iggy Az is havingi hiphop handed to her on a platter because she's white - although not her fault , as human being it doesn't sit right for me.

2. Iggy Banks comes across as jealous and a lil bipolar. after she said that blacks americans need to take a cue from black latins in the caribbean , I realized how ignorant she really is.

Eminem and the Beastie Boys went on to have success outside of their first albums. They have multiple multi-platinum albums. Eminem wanting to be Black is irrelevant. House of Pain is a novelty act in comparison.

Everlast kept on being a commercial success

Nah, Eminem wanting to be Black is very relevant...

Wearing a du-rag as a white boy is very culture vulture-ish....

House of Pain was just regular white boys who was cool with black dudes.

Are we really putting House of Pain on the same playing field as Eminem and The Beastie Boys? Compare Everlast/House of Pain's run with Eminem and The Beastie Boys run. You're comparing a group and a solo who has one double platinum album and a gold one to a group and a solo with multiple multi-platinum albums throughout an entire decade. This isn't even an argument. They didn't have the success or the support/co-signs that Eminem and The Beastie Boys did/do.

:ohhh:


and I have no idea how this bytches voice sounds like


However...this is the thing I never felt about Iggy Azealia, she's submersed in Hip-Hop culture, but she's never sexual with black men in none of her videos. In her personal life she traveled from Miami, California, to ATL on her own at 16 years old, where she admitted to having an BLACK older boyfriend.

To me this stands out that she's race conscious or white privilege and chooses how and when to appeal to either audience. I'm just not comfortable with that.

None of what you posted is getting at what I was talking about. House of Pain is still a novelty whether you view them as authentic or not.

Third Base.

Third Base, House of Pain and Cypress were who nikkas fukked with.... as I remember it.
The white kids and the mainstream listened to Beastie Boys, held em up as the end all be all of white participation in rap.
Wonder why?

Not to say nikkas didn't listen to Beastie Boys. Nikkas did. But they weren't the end all be all.
This album got played in the hood

Nah, and i don't listen to white rappers like that

Eminem was a white boy who wore a du-rag that wanted to be black and the Beastie Boys were Jews.

House of Pain was just straight up on that white boy shyt and they went platinum.

Plus Everlast fom House of Pain gave Eminem that Ether and took his soul making him look like a p*ssy.
:dahell:

rewrite history according to your own anti semitism, brehs

Just because Eminem sold more records than Tupac don't mean he is not a novelty act.

I understand Eminem lived in a Detroit trailer park and alot of poor cacs identify with him.

But still just because you can spit and sold the most records in hip hop history don't mean shyt..

Eminem was a novelty with his crazy shock value lyrics talking down on his mom ect....

There lies the problem with your argument. That does not nullify the fact that Eminem isn't a novelty act. Novelty acts don't have lasting careers. As quickly as they become successful is as quick as they are no longer successful. Hence, the novelty wears off.

It's not just about the sales. People still respect Eminem as a lyricist and not just them CAC's who fawn over everything he does, but artists who are actually great lyricists themselves.

Fair enough, to each is own but to me shock value lyrics = novelty.
