Because unlike other industries the talent here is often black and the product is a variation of black music.

But black people have no say so.



The product is content from black artists, white artists etc....not just hip hop


Do you really want to choose a career in an industry facing decreasing revenues and structural decline ?

It's interesting from the perspective regarding the fact that we invented all the genres they are working with.

It's like Brazil being the biggest seller of French art.

How the hell can Dre and Birdman be left of the list :what: . Are they not including people that labelled as artists as well? Thereof Jay not being there but Jay Brown being present alone.
The stone head Stoute is missing as well.

Theoretically speaking wee should make up 13% so it's not that far off if we consider that the figure decreases since it's Europe+US. Women are further of they should theoretically speaking make up 50 %.


I'm not into gender quotas so f*ck that...

That's how you end up promoting incompetent individuals and slowing productivity when they take time out to have kids.


If this list includes Europe then it makes sense. Either way not many black artists want to be record label CEOs kissing white investor asses for capital/scouring for new merger/acquisitions while spending 12 hour days trying to get a good return for the cac asses you kissed....


Hell most white artists ain't.... Only a few people want that life

especially when we are the MINORITY in this country.
Means nothing. Jews run HollyWood, and financing, yet they are way smaller then blacks.

It's all about finding your talent, and hoarding it to your group. Blacks want to get a shyt load of money, and sell out their culture, until it's not theirs anymore. Blacks don't respect their culture. That's why when they get some money they start eating pasta, or anything that isn't black like pollenta being better then grits, even though they are basically the same thing. I'm glad I'm not part of that group of blacks. They don't represent me, that's why i write "they". We are ashamed of our shyt, until someone else claims it, and give it a different name, like soul food being called "southern food", now!

:ehh: I agree for the most part

But we both know that Jews and Blacks are not on the same levels of equality in this country even as minorities

:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol: @ you trying to suggest people are struggling rappers/producers because folks are and have been well aware that as long as the record industry has existed it has been dominated by white males, similar to ANY corporate entity in the history of North American corporate entities.

Dont deflect because you were unaware of what everyone else already knew Captain Obvious.

trent reznor has more clout, money, and power in the music business than jay-z, quincy jones, and puff daddy
yeah...you just KNEW that :martin:

and we're talking about the music business, we're not talking about the pharmaceutical or video game industry - black people invented bluegrass (which became country), rock, jazz, blues, hip hop - that's pretty much the entire music industry right there


take your silly ass on somewhere :camby:
