No flows
No slang
No dance
No fashion
No monumental albums which permeate the culture

Speak on it...why do you think that is?

I'll always believe this but the "hood" has acted as a guardian angel or barrier for Hip Hop against cacs. Its the reason they still haven't fully absorbed Hip Hop CULTURALLY like they did Rock. They tried many times but failed. Its a reason why White rapper NOT named Eminem or Beastie Boys are barely taken seriously and even still those two contributed very LITTLE to Hip Hop culturally.

Rick Rubin with LL Cool J and Run DMC created the Rap superstar...

Jerry Heller was behind gangsta rap with Run DMC

Mike Dean helped usher in the sound of Kanye West, Travis Scott, Kid Cudi and was fundamental to Houston Hip Hop as a multi-instrumentalist...

Eminem expanded the market for Hip Hop and made it pop mainstream and dropped 3 diamond albums that caused major controversy with White America...

Gucci, Supreme, Tommy Hilfiger Lou Vuitton, Ralph Lauren..are White brands that have dominated Hip Hop fashion...

White people are fundamental to Hip Hop music and culture whether people like it or not...they are the biggest consumers, investors, managers and tastemakers in it...

The parks they use to throw park jams at were named after white People too :ohhh:

Eminem fans were notorious for being close minded to anything but Marshall so how did that expand a market that already had Hammer?

Tommy Hillfiger? Next you’ll say The NBA made a conscientious effort to embrace AI and everything he entailed when he came around.

That wasn’t good on your behalf homie

nikkas was too busy break-dancing on cardboard, meanwhile the white man seen an opportunity to get paid & created a billion dollar business.

Once again, another industry we let pass us by.
