I SERIOUSLY doubt that if he thought Eminem was the first respected white mc with lyrics in hip hop history. He played himself typing that.put respect on that man @Art Barr he know more about this rap shyt than everyone in here period
Look, I laugh at Arts dusthead ramblings as much as the next guy but dude is an encyclopediaI SERIOUSLY doubt that if he thought Eminem was the first respected white mc with lyrics in hip hop history. He played himself typing that.
But wasn't aware of ANY respected white mc with lyrics before 1999?Look, I laugh at Arts dusthead ramblings as much as the next guy but dude is an encyclopedia
You must've skimmed Art Barr's post, cause you took what he said out of contextok here is a history lesson for you young ass crackers. Eminem's first MAJOR LABEL release to the nation came out in 99. By then, 3rd Bass(well respected duo ) had 2 albums and some solos. Young Black Teenagers, produced by the Bomb Squad with Kamron having a supporting role in Houseparty 2, had an album out. Cage was buzzing on the underground during the late 90s with 12"s. Nonphixion released "i shot Reagan" in 98 and that 12 inch was circulating in NY and buzzing. Jedi mind tricks released their debut in 1997 and were well respected(an album which featured Apathy who is one of the coldest white mcs ever!!). Everlast had a platinum theme with Jump Around that everyone loved and the remix was done by Pete Rock in 92. All of this shyt happened BEFORE 1999. Eminem's debut to the world appeared in 99 the same year High and the Mighty's debut dropped(an album that Eminem appeared on). So no, he's not the first lyrical white MC. This is the problem I have wit white people discussing and writing about hip hop history because they blatantly lie to prop up those they want to be seen as innovators. And even during the mid 90s you had guys like Milkbone, who you've never heard of, but you know of one of his song "Keep it Real" , produced by the great Kay Gee(not Kevin Garnett but of NBN) which is mostly known for big L and Jay Z rhyming over at WKCR. You're welcome.
None of this college paper you just typed up proves he's the GOAT, besides maybe being the GOAT of cac rappers. I'm not arguing that he didn't break the door down for cacs. I'm just arguing that he's not the GOAT by a long shot. He has way too many trash albums in his discography to be that and no 5 mic albums either (SSLP and MMLP are both 4.5 and that's being generous)
But I also don't agree that no white person would ever be allowed to rap again after Vanilla Ice, because they were. There was a stigma to bein a cac rapper for a bit, sure., but you still had the Beasties, you had Miilkbone (one hit wonder or not), you had a bunch of underground rappers with buzz like El-P, Cage, Necro, etc. and then most importantly you had all that rap rock shyt like Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock which was HUGE when Em first dropped. Em made it more acceptable maybe, but what you're saying are some huge reaches
