@Northern Touch you ignorant piece of dog shyt tell me about Juan Atkins you ignorant n*gga

Are you on drugs or is your reading comprehension really that bad :mindblown:??? Re-read the post and get off my dikk you fukking fakkit. I was saying white people get credit for starting techno when it is actually the brainchild of Atkins, Derrick May and other black musicians in Detroit. White people rewrote history is all I was saying, dummy :snoop:.

Can nikkas not read or not comprehend? The rap committee tried to get them sorry ass CACs pushed to the pop category cause they knew they would steal all the rap awards. The overall Grammy committee shut that down, and they proceeded to win all the rap awards,like the hip hop folks feared.

That said, fukk CACKLEMORE and anybody who love him, but the real shadiness in this situation was trying to push them to a different category. I can't stand that crackkka, but his music is rap....:yeshrug:

no its not rap music. its pop music.

im old enough to remember when billboard wouldnt even dare put artists like them on the rap charts. they would stick them on the pop charts instead, where they belong.

and most of timberlake's chit wouldnt be on the r&b charts neither.

I understand if this was one of the years when the competition was weak so they just gave it to the generic Eminem album but GKMC sold just as much records, was much more critically acclaimed and respected among "real" hip hop fans. This is just complete racism and/or pushing of the gay agenda. Horrible look for the Grammies, they should be boycotted and Macklemore should've declined the award.

meh. yall riding for kendrick, but lets be real, the kendrick's whole push was just as much a part of the agenda as well.

i speak the real all the time, and been saying telling this board to stop supporting these shows for years. not because some rapper i like didnt win.

im glad kendrick to the L actually. cuz he really aint poppin like that. and at least macklemore's win caused alot of people to finally wake up and smell the coffee.

this chit basically killed 2 birds with 1 stone in my book.

im sure hes not tryna get blackballed :skip:

Yeah, I know it's just better than writing that gay ass text and then posting it on instagram.

All I see in his off stage persona is "Look guys, I'm sorry for being white, okay? I'm trying to compensate for it with everything I do. Look at all the shyt I do to do that."

They can have the charts. We always had the streets because rap is the hood's vocal cords.

The fukked up part is that white people are taking the streets back too. :lolbron: Do you think its a coincidence that Rap has been getting more and more watered down as a whole since the mid 90's? Gentrification has killed Hip Hop too. NYC was hella grimier in the 90's and it was no coincidence that the music coming outta NYC in 90's was so atmospheric and great. It's the same song with music from every area of the country in that time frame. NYC has no great new rappers because the hood has because yuppie and hipsterville. :snoop: chicago is still hella fukked up, thats why all the rappers are coming from there now. The Bay has a steady stream of decent underground music because hella places in the Bay are still mainey as fukk.

Notice To Black Artists: Your Services Are No Longer Needed

Dear Black Artists,

We regret to inform you that the need for your services will soon come to an end as we enter a critical restructuring period. Fortunately, after having spent nearly a century meticulously studying your art, language, fashion, and lifestyle, we have learned enough to confidently move forward without your assistance. We thank you for your contributions but have decided to make some necessary changes as a result of your decreasing value. Focus groups show that consumers are looking for more relatable images. While 2013 marked the first time in Billboard’s 55 year history that there were no black artists on the Hot 100 chart,2 this was a great year for us with Justin Timberlake, Robin Thicke, and Macklemore claiming the #1 spot on the R&B/Hip-Hop chart, proving that market demands are shifting. Consequently, in the next few months, we will be gradually phasing out your positions as we finalize this reorganization. In the meantime, we ask you to continue with business as usual, training your replacements Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber until instructed otherwise.

i just saw it. i guess cacs just don't give a sh1t anymore. but rather being honest than pulling strings and acting like devils.
cause if you tell ppl that's what's happening they'll say you're crazy. but now it's them just saying it.

why do white people love hip-hop.. it has nothing to do with them :snoop:
You don't know that the younger generation of every race in North America wants to be black?

East asians, whites, south east asians...maybe even Arabs and shyt.

They all want to be us, they all copy us and love our style. fakkits get the benefits of not being black and then try to leech our culture
