Hip-hop belongs to the artists and the listener's just
because all artists inspire at least one person. Theses’ artists that make the
music for people like me and you aren't doing it just for them and us. It's all
for the listener's and hip-hop it’s self. Although the black race started
hip-hop & whites joined it should be open to all races no matter what
happens between them. Music is a fair game for blacks & whites that are
dedicated to singing for their fans. They may say mean things about one another
but the rappers come together for the game. Yes history of whites is continuing
with Macklemore and his great rap albums. His apology should be sincere and
from Macklemore’s heart not his head. The apology should be appropriate enough
for people to see him as a role model. Rap music can transcend race and class
when people get stupid and are always wasted. The race you are when you join
rap music doesn't really matter at times unless you say something at another
race & mean it. Rap isn't to inedible tied to black urban culture. White
rappers like Eminem have opened up to welcoming too few white guys. Although
Eminem was the first white rapper and he won’t be the last thanks to
inspiration. When the rap community opens up and welcomes people we should
thank that community for opening up. The apology that Macklemore gives to the
blacks of the hip-hop community should be sincere, honest and sorrowful.
Although Macklemore shouldn’t have to apologize to any of the rappers that he
joined with in rap community. So my
input on which hip-hop belongs to is that it belongs to the people that listen
and support the artists along their carrier. The ruler of hip-hop in my opinion
would be Flo rida.
