The Caucasian Invasion of Hip Hop is disgusting and needs to be addressed

So I'm watching MTV Jams last night or should I say I'm listening to it while doing some work on my laptop. I hear a sista spitting struggle bars about the struggle. I glance up to the screen to see this shyt

Iggy Azalea - Work (Explicit) - YouTube


I then have the :merchant::scusthov: faces. Later I'm watching MTV Jams while falling asleep and this shyt comes on

Rittz - Like I Am - Official Music Video - YouTube

by this time I literally feel like :what::sadbron::to:. I have my TV set as my alarm clock so it automatically comes on at the same time every morning unless I change it. I wake up to this shyt playing MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS - THRIFT SHOP FEAT. WANZ (OFFICIAL VIDEO) - YouTube. That did it for me. For the life of me I don't get how we have become so soft that we allow this shyt Chanel West Coast I Love Money - YouTube

this is a total mockery of our culture. Hiphop was the 1 form of art that African Americans could identify with as a sole reflection of the urban experience. How in the fukk did we get to this?
The majority of rap fans have ALWAYS been white. They could've taken the music any time they wanted to.

Easy. Black rappers started to do ignorant, cartoon nikka shyt that became lame and tired, opening a lane for an alternative. Plus, people of other races grew up listening to rap and probably wanted to do it themselves from their own perspective. Nothing wrong with that. Change is inevitable. Adapt or perish. Most of the major acts are black anyway. :yeshrug: Only cats getting flushed out are the wannabe thug nikkas. :umad: Let em eat cake.

I'm talking about the nikkas that are relevant won't address these wack ass white rappers because they don't wanna piss off cacs that have purchasing power. They'll wait until the cacs take completely over and they're no longer relevant before they start talking about it. 3 years from now when the game is all white and Lil Wayne is doing shows in hole in the wall clubs he'll then say something about how they took over but while he has power he's silent. When MC Hammer was on top nikkas dissed him every chance they got and eradicated his popularity and relevancy. And Hammer was a real nikka, for the life of me I don't get how we got so soft as a people that we allow this shyt to happen yet we tore down nikkas like Hammer who was really from the street and was putting real street nikkas on by giving them jobs. fukking cowards. You couldn't pay 2 Chainz or Ross to address this shyt.


:ehh: Great points but these kids today ain't got backbones. The 90's era was run by the fans. Now the labels and corporations tell these kids who to like and they accept it willingly.

On a side note: I never heard of any one of the people the OP named outside of Iggy. That Rittz joint is hot. :whew::ooh:

There was just as many white rappers 'invading' after Vanilla Ice came out...then it faded....then when Eminem came out...then it faded....

You guys fail to realize 99% of white rappers outside of the beastie boys and Eminem are flash in the pan. For every one white rapper a bunch of white people support theres 4 black rappers they support as well.

rittz isn't wack, OP is just intolerant and lumped him in with wack acts, two of which are ex-models who have no business rapping :why:


i don't listen to rittz regularly, but i would never call him wack or part of some agenda :rudy:

YOU'VE GOT IT BACKWARDS, BROTHER! TO BUILD A NATION-WIDE FANBASE IN THE 90'S, YOU NEEDED TO GET CONNECTED WITH A MAJOR RECORD LABEL AND MTV, DUDE! TODAY THE FANS CAN SUPPORT AN ARTIST DIRECTLY THROUGH THE INTERNET, MEAN GENE! THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO AREN'T HEARING THE HIP HOP THEY WANT TODAY ARE THE ONES WHO REFUSE TO LOOK AROUND, JACK! TURN OFF THE RADIO AND START GOOGLING LOCAL RAP ACTS, BROTHER!

Can you guys stop with this nostalgic revisionist bullshyt?

The 90s was not 'run by the fans' anymore than it is today. In fact, I'd argue the fans have more control because of your voice on social media/internet and the fact you don't have to pay to hear a record.

Exactly. That thugged out shyt of the early 00s is wiped away from the mainstream.

Bullshyt. When Ice Ice Baby video went off the next vid being played wasn't from a white rapper. Now it's back to back white vids on MTV Jams and back to back white rapper songs on Satellite radio. That shyt was an isolated rarity back then.
