Are white hip-hop heads ashamed to be in love with black culture?

Trauma-san:
You're ashamed your daddy's a drunk.... don't really know about the rest, but I do know that. 

Sikotic™:
Get laid amigo. It's discussions like this that keep people from getting along.

Because of the nature of this board, most here are not included in this observation, but I will say this. White people are not the ones ashamed of being hip-hop heads. It's the white higher ups that are not putting out hip-hop. MTV, BET (now owned by Viacom with MTV), the Clear Channel stations, the Radio One stations, the owners of lables. White higher ups were the ones complaining about hip-hop, so they bought it. The race issue in hip-hop also comes from the 2Pac's and Public Enemy. I remember after Biggie died, white rap fans stopped listening to rap. I asked them, why you stopped listening, and they said straight up, you can only hear the message so many times before it gets old. And it's true, for people who cannot relate, it's hard listening to black people say how hard it is when you are not black and struggling. So hip-hop was bought buy the white man, and made into a money making industry, in ways the original Jive, Tommy Boy an Def Jam could not imagion. Death Row sold because of interest and controversy. The lables found a safe way to market hip-hop to the masses. Though at the true cost of the art form, Death Row and labels that exploted the music... hurt the music. But the true hip-hop... now in the form of Talib Kweli and Common, it's almost exactly how it always was. Public Enemy and KRS-One had their salls, but never on the level of Hammer, Snoop, LL Cool J. The only exception is 2Pac, but the GOAT always is different
