Anyone angry at this thread is likely a White dude or black woman. I don't take either opinions serious. With White people their White privilege means they can't understand the music beyond a technical aspect. I know plenty White music critics that don't fk with Illmatic. Find it boring. A black person However we feel the way that album paint reality. White dudes is mostly interlopers. As for black chicks. They only have two reaction. Liking garbage strip club hip hop. Or silly identity politics feminist reaction. Tbh White chicks into hip hop>>>. They seem to have more awareness of White privilege as well as not sweating the feminist angle too much.
Most females can't comprehend the undertones of hip hop.
Basically, hip is is telling you "If I didn't have this outlet, I'd be somewhere fukking up society"
It's a way to get out those angers and frustrations.
White Dudes can relate to that because they feel some of the same dissatisfaction that black people do.
A black dude in the hood might feel neglected or abandoned because his pops is in jail and his mom's is a hood rat.
The white dude in the suburbs might feel neglected & abandoned because his pops works all day and his mother's a snobby bytch who's gone all day, shopping and spending up his pops money.
It's two different extremes, but abandon & neglect is abandon & neglect
So when Ice Cube or Pac scream "fukk The World" some white dudes are going to feel that shyt.It's rebel music to them
Eminem struck gold with that crowd.His whole musical concept is based on those elements.
Stan is real
