If Eminem is breaking records and getting accolades for his rap music, how come...

[Fmju]

I've heard that damn Miley Cyrus mike will song more on DC rap stations that cacinem

 

[Insensitive]

He doesnt get play at urban radio stations because hes white
He gets play at pop and rock stations because hes white

Racism works both ways

I'm pretty sure in this instance it has little
to do with "Reverse Racism" (which is fukking stupid)
and more to do with the Label knowing who his music
appeals to.
So instead of playing his music on "Urban" ( I'm certain some stations do...)
stations, they'll play his music on Alt Rock, Alternative, Pop stations
because a lot of White people will be listening to those stations.

I hear it often on 95.5 wpgc and 93.9 wkys

 

[Ranger21]

[Ranger21]

...NONE of it is on urban radio?


ATL, DC, NY, LA, Houston, etc.

Some of these cities have multiple rap stations.

NOT ONE is playing his stuff.
