The majority of the hip hop audience has been white for a long time. Eventually the labels were going to figure out that the white kids were buying the music and the attitude not the color.

I can remember when Iggy was a man.

There would be no hip-hop industry today if it were not for the hard-earned dollars of Caucasian consumers.

The prominent has-been, Funkmaster Flex, was more than happy to sell records to Caucasians, but he is upset when Caucasians want to make records.

So Iggy’s a white rapper. Big whoop. Eminem was a white rapper also.

There’s a word used for the majority of the rap music audience:

Wigger.

You see, there has always been a certain class of whites who get off on racist black entertainment.

Years ago it was artists like Stepin Fetchit and Snowflake who amused the whites. Now its Kayne West and Ice Cube and thugs like that.

I had to read this just so I could comment that I have no idea what any of this tried to tell us.

Everyone listens to Funkmaster Flex.....
Is that the kid from “Married with Children”?

Who’s ‘whitewashing’ rap? Debbie Harry is the singer of the first rap song to ever chart, Rapture. That was a long time ago now.

As far as whites "stealing" black music, many of the old blues musicians (Son House, Skip James, Mississippi John Hurt, and other) had their careers revived by young, white blues afficianadoes. Many black musicians who supposedly had their music "stolen," became wealthy thanks to millions of white teens who bought their music. The fact is without a white audience, most successful black rockers from the fifties and sixties would have never progressed beyond the small black clubs and record labels.

While rock and roll certainly derived from black blues, few successful white rockers sounded like black bluesmen. The Beatles certainly didn't need to record any blues songs to become famous and wealthy. Ditto for the Stones. Everybody is affected by everybody else. Black jazz musicians were influenced by white, classical musicians. White musicians were influence by black musicians. That's the way of the world.

The real conspiracy is to convince everyone that hip hop doesn’t suck.
