I don't really fucc with NY Drill, I like that Westside Gunn and Benny The Butcher sound. I might start checking out Fivio Foreign since he's pretty much the only Black American out there. I think I've seen an interview of him talking about his family's background stating that he is clearly a Black American, but I forgot what interview it was.

EDIT: speaking of Westside Gunn, Benny The Butcher, And Conway The Machine, are they Black Americans?
:heh:

The areas in Brooklyn and the Bronx these guys are from are all ethnic neighborhoods. They just grow up on rap and adapt to AA culture

nyc is the diasporan mecca*


Is it that way solely because of population? As far as Caribbean folks go, i would think we’d have culturally rich hoods in miami.

as far as music, I can only really think of kodak, pump, and xxx being that big from round there.

Kanye literally had a pop smoke song on there. And he isn’t AA. Rooga was like a few songs down. Is he not drill? Sometimes I don’t believe you people are real :mjtf:

In nyc, AAs, and caribbeans live amongst each other. That’s why Fivi biggest hit got haitian lingo in it.

He is the best rapper in drill. Pop just had better hooks and songwriting. Pop also has better verses in general, but he could never hop on a song and outdo Fivi.

All this online division is only online. After centuries of slavery, AAs and Caribbean ppl vibe with each other in real life. The need to create hostile division between us usually only comes from the unwanted among both groups :hubie:

Every friend group I ever had was a mix of AA, caribbean and hispanic, usually Dominican/Rican. Maybe that’s just a east coast thing. I see a few ppl out west confused about Hispanic and black relations. It’s warranted, because Hispanics are confused about it too.

You just get it if you from round here.

No one outside of NYC cares about those bums

This is true but gotta perpetuate the ignorance I suppose...

Hispanics have been mingling with Africans for damn near 500 years....

Not in the start of the 1990s....lol.

Kids really don't pick up a history book today...or their history teachers did a very shytty job educating these kids...
