It always rubbed me the wrong way when Muggs was like "they know mexicans run LA"

You cant grow up within that culture and be a culture vulture at the same time:mjlol:

This is where I disagree,and this is where it gets dangerous. The logic makes no sense to begin with really,plus Cardi is 25 and you talking like she grew up watching KRS discuss hiphop:mjlol:

Plus as Latino population takes over the Bronx,when will your logic expire? I expect latino culture to be dominant,as they throw hiphop culture in the bushes.

"According to a 2013 Census Bureau estimate,[6] 45.8% of the Bronx's population was white, 43.3% was black or African American, 4.2% Asian, 3.0% American Indian, 0.4% Pacific Islander, and 3.3% of two or more races. In addition, 54.6% of the population was of Hispanic or Latino origin, of any race."

This is like saying whites or asians in L.A or the Bay couldn't be vultures because of heavy participation in the culture. But I guess you think the Bronx is some sort of unicorn and always will be.

None of this is even relevant breh. For all intents and purposes the Bronx IS hip hop. You could argue that everyone outside NYC that started making hip hop back in the day are culture vultures with this logic

You definitely read this in that hiphop for beginners book and aren't thinking clear:mjlol:

So your saying just by living in the bronx,you could argue people in the bronx of all races are more hiphop than black people outside of it who have contributed faaaaaar more to the culture:laff:

No you can't argue that at all,but you can argue what I'm saying,and I have done well so far. You guys counter arguments have been "But its the bronx:damn:!"

I think maybe you guys think my argument is that all latinos are culture vultures,which was never said by me at all.

my stance is that latino "participants" like Cardi B should be under the same immediate suspicion as whites,and have not done enough to make that NOT be the case imo.

Cardi B doesn’t have to grow up discussing KRS-One, that’s obviously before her time.

:mjlol: Hip-Hop culture is the Bronx it won’t be thrown in the bushes.

Do you realize the Bronx was 23% black in 1970, 37% black in 1990, and 43% black as of the most recent census? The Bronx black population is not decreasing. Some Latino groups have been in hip-hop and contributed to the culture from the start as well. The South Bronx was heavily Puerto Rican in the early 70’s. You was as likely to hear salsa as you were funk or soul in the streets back then and those are all genres of the African diaspora. Many of the Bronx latinos are black and you’d be hard pressed to find a teen latino kid who doesn’t like hip-hop. And the Americanized ones are more likely to listen to rap over anything. The most popular music on their islands is hip-hop, a spanish trap derivative they spit and collab even with rappers from America, hip-hop has taken over the world. It’s to the point the most popping music among UK youth is drill.

compton is now majority hispanic, south central becoming hispanic not white cuz, whites not moving into black areas in LA


There moving out because of upper mobility and traditional demographic shifts. Compton city hall and South central districts are still dominated politically by blacks . Your the same guys who said bounty hunters are not in the industry. Like Akon and Kendrick Lamar aren't managed by Hunters. :russ:

Fair enough,but even if I'm wrong and they don't throw it in the bushes,my point still stands. Hiphop music is the most popular among damn near every young demographic of people of every race though. If you guys are okay with latinos copying black american culture,lingo,style and doing US in a safer,more non threatning package. All while seemingly giving nothing back to the culture,knock yourselves out:hubie:

Hip-Hop is global I think the forefathers intetended it to be a universal language. The people who created it weren’t just AA, Kool Herc was Jamaican. And I don’t consider it “copying”. A culture vulture would be someone like Miley Cyrus.

How is Cardi B copying something she grew up in? She’s a Dominican/Trini bytch that was born and grew up in Highbridge, The Bronx.

I don't caught up in this type of thing. Overall Mexicans have a better track record of working together & keeping family & community intact.

It not about being stronger and scarier. Tough brothers die everyday. In the end, you can't maintan any power without being organized.
