alright then fuck the radio lets go this route...theres different levels of success too...i would say you guys have proved me wrong on the radio part so fuck it...im cool with it. but then you got artists like royce da 59, common, fredro starr, mos def, noreaga, mobb deep, sticky fingaz, etc...who sell enough units to keep them set for life...they may not be all over the radio but they are still successful.

then you got a ton of underground rappers who arent doin shit...sure theres a ton of black underground rappers not doin shit either...but there are no rappers that are white that are in the category of artists i listed above.

SGV:
LMAO. Luke, what's your deal? Paul Wall, King J.C., Haystak, El-P, Copywrite, High & Mighty, Cage, and tons more. I can go on for days. These are all White rappers who do well. They got a good fan base, they stay releasing material like the Black rappers you named. Just stop.

Now I'm going to sleep.

Oh the real, it's just as hard for blacks as it is for whites. You need to stop this argument because you are not getting now where. You can never understand what you are arguing, and honestly, you need to claim the fuck down.

Lets look at this. Vanilla Ice, Beastie Boys, Eminem, all more famous than what the times call for. For blacks to be famous, they too have to sell their souls to the lable. Xzibit wasn't platnum until Restless, Nas with If I Rule The World, DMX was all over the place before he came out and created his own buzz with being on Bad Boy songs. Ma$e was a sell out, and most every platnum black artist now had to sell out. You going to tell me Busta Rhymes first solo single wasn't radio friendly, Whooha Got You All In Check. Black artist can't sell without a catchy hook, and a video full of naked girls. They sold out the art to sell. We can get into a deep, deep racial discusion on just that alone. but honestly, don't waste your time, because you can never understand. I'll leave you with this, most backpackers I know are black college students, with Asians coming in at a close second. Most like rappers like Canibus, like Atmosphere, like Royce, like Murs, like Common, Mos Def, and hell, many like Kanye West now who is a backpack rapper that has radio friendly singles like Slow Jam. You can never fully know the argument you take because the battle in hip-hop has never been about white vs black. Hip-hop is a universal race culture. The battle is between real and sell out. Until you realize that, you can never understand the true battle in hip-hop. Peace.

Don Breezio:
saying blacks had to sell their soul is retarded considering blacks started hip hop. every white rapper that has ever come into rap has caught a load of shit for being white. the beasties dont make music very often anymore...vanilla ice was corny as fuck and im glad he doesnt rap anymore, eminem will probably be washed up sooner than we think.

even white rap fans catch crap....where i live most people listen to either country or rock...i listen to everything but people focus in on the fact that i love rap and they act like im some fuckin wigger...the fact is in today's society its becoming unnacceptable to rap or even listen to rap if your white.
