Corporate wise, they been took over, but uh how many White rappers you can name in the Mainstream? Eminem, Macklemore, and Mac Miller? 3? That's 3 white rappers in like 40 mainstream rappers.

I wouldn't say willingly.

I'd just say that the split in hood vs non hood in rap had blacks who supported variety vs blacks who supported gangsta rap while being backed up by white funding and because of that the blacks who supported variety lost.

We gave Hip Hop to the selfish type of black people.

That's the thing I can't even say that it was given to them because some people actually fought against it.

I see it as us basically losing the battle because of diminishing numbers and their white funding.

Nah, I see that white execs just got tired of black folks copying off one another and want white faces to do that ratchet nonsense. :manny:

white folks don't get tired of anything that brings them money.

the ONLY reason they add white faces is because, White faces are FAR more accepted amongst white audiences than Black faces, and it'll bring White investors/corps more money.

The only reason we even reach this point is because sell out black folks who claim that they have the streets behind them make weak ass tracks about bullshyt like partying 24/7. Went from Ice Cube proficient outlook on all angles of the hood to Chief Keef glorifying murder.

what incentive do Black rappers have to glorify murder?

is it the fact that when they glorify murder in music, the record deals start falling from the sky and checks are cut by White owned labels?

Well less blacks around, more hood blacks in the spotlight with non hood blacks being covered up from existence and more money in white corporations pockets is what a greedy and racist white people I power would want.

Money and black suppression.

Jimmy Iovine wants another 50 Cent in this era to profit off of. Just that he found out that a bum like Keef ain't taking orders and rather be dumb in the streets of Chi-raq.

The hood has all kinds of black people in it. The problem is that the hard-headed ones silence the "nerds" and the "lames" that ain't about ignorant shyt. Even before CACs come to the picture, its like the alternative route gets shut off.
