Fat joe and Angie Martinez speak about Latinos being left out of Hip Hop Conversation

[Uptown WaYo87]

Outside of Pun, who should be apart of the conversation?

They mention all the half Latinos In hip hop. Lloyd Banks, Fabolous, NORE,Jim Jones, Pop Smoke, Kevin Gates, Juelz. The one that blew my mind was DMC, had no idea he was Dominican

They also speak about Pioneers like Charley Chase, Crazy Legs, Bobbito. Watch the video

I mean, everytime these Ricans rap they be on some "nikka" shyt. I known we all come from a hood, and we grow up with the same slang...but them nikkas switch to talking strictly Spanish at the Rican cookouts.

Culture vultures, imo.




I ain't never been to a rican cookout....I'm just saying. They have a culture....they just wanna be apart of ours, I guess?

Edit: I mean, they do have some prominent figures in hip-hop, it seems. But why them prominent rappers never ride for their rican side?​

NORE

 

[Adebisi_Said]

[Child_Of_God]

Big Pun was the GOAT Latin rapper of all time.

Ricans ain't allowed to talk spanish at their cookouts? If ya only knew the amount of street slang dominicans and Ricans use when they talk spanish. Especially dominicans, other spanish people love dominicans for that reason. Our spanish is considered "ghetto" to other Hispanics who talk spanish in the traditional "proper" form. Dominicans curse constantly, even our elders. It's kind of ridiculous honestly and I feel like every generation is becoming worse because of it

I guess I seen the point he was making but Joe was still mostly naming black folks with a little Hispanic roots in they family. It’s that little brother syndrome

I mean, it's cool if you invite a nikka to your lil rican cookout....but I'd be silly to ask everyone to chill and speak English just so I can enjoy myself.

Latinos have been part of hip hop since day one. They were apart of every aspect of hip hop and street culture.

Little Hispanic roots? Everyone he named is HALF Latino. Meaning a parent was full Latino, not a distant cousin

DMC is dominican and he's one half of one of the most legendary hip hop groups of all time in RUN DMC

this seems like a conversation that new york hip hop needs to have

It ain’t like that shyt really matters. Them folks black. Fat Joe just naming nationalities

 

[Memorial Stadium Piru]

Latinos have less of a claim to hip hop than Jamaicans, who have a flimsy claim themselves lol

You're right, but with those nationalities comes different cultures. Which makes people mad like the poster that's upset over Ricans talking spanish at their own bbqs.

What's flimsy about everything that was broken down in that video? Did you watch it?
