    Hey everybody! Hope you liked this video on white rappers. I think this is a really interesting topic and I'd love to hear your thoughts down below. Between Eminem, Macklemore, Mac Miller, El-P, Jack Harlow, and allllllllll the other white people in hip-hop, let's discuss! Do you think that there's any kind of privilege in rap? Or do these guys have it harder than most? Let me know.

    Don't let this video distract you from the fact that logic is biracial.

    What's interesting is that when Dr Dre heard Eminem, he absolutely loved it. He only heard a demo and never saw a pic of him and assumed Em was black but that wasn't the case. Just Shows

    We judge music by sound, not ethnicity

    WRONG! The most disastrous Grammy win was 2 years later when Taylor Swift's "1989" beat "To Pimp A Butterfly" for album of the year.

    As a black man Mac Miller will always have my respect dead or alive he knew his place and he really rapped not just rapping fast and changing voices

    Not that I completely agree with it but Eminem is considered one of the greatest rappers ever, so saying that he only has fame because he is white is absolutely bullshit I think.

    Jack Harlow and Mac Miller made it to the game because they weren't trying to fit in or be an eminem clone

    Great. Now Logic is going to spend 10 more years telling everyone he's biracial.

    In my opinion, if you can talk about Action Bronson and his niche, you can put Aesop Rock and Slug in that category. Aesop and Slug have been around longer, Slug built his record label, and Aesop is one of the most intricate wordsmiths. They both came out of the same underground movement as El-P. El-P didn't get a lot of recognition in the mainstream until he and Killer Mike formed Run the Jewels, which isn't even mentioned.

    For eminem i feel like he wasn't really accepted by the existing community but was able to get widespread success commercially due to the fact that he was more marketable to white people who is the vast majority of the US. The thing is with Eminem though is that he is actually talented which lead to the existing community start to slowly accept him over time. It is hard for white rappers especially in the early 2000s to get credit for how good they are from the existing hiphop community but was a lot easier to get credit from casually listeners and is why em has always done really well commercially

    Em was booed when he was starting over and over. He worked it all up, he swallowed all them embarrassment and anxiety. He was criticized because he was different. He didn’t fit into these
