    We as Black people need to stop being so inclusive with everything

    That's how you make money though. If rap was somehow limited to blacks, rappers wouldn't be living quite as large as they do.

    Anyways, there are plenty of blacks that make money off black ? . We just don't know how to cycle that money. Basically people make the money, then it goes right back out of our community.

    Most country music fans are white. In case you forgot, whites make up the largest racial group in the country. Blacks are only 13% of the country, not all blacks listen to rap, and a lot of the blacks that listen to rap don't go to concerts or even buy albums, so yeah, just because a segment of the white population can do something in a country where they have the numbers and wealth advantage doesn't mean we could do it.

    ok.....black people dont need to stay in america to become successful rappers.

    they can tour europe and asia and never be heard of in america.

    so what would you rather have...local fame and fortune or world wide fame and fortune.

    alor of artists dont realize this until ? turn on them an call them old and they think their career is over.

    case and point

    I don't understand your point anymore. The original statement that I addressed was that black people need to stop being so inclusive. Touring Europe and Asia is being inclusive.

    people dont have to be involved in taking rap over for you to tour.

    your point was that whites own the country and blacks dont buy music or all blacks dont listen to rap. yet we allow white people in the genre all easy.

    country music is something that you have to like ...an they are loyal. and the artists make money.

    if inclusion is about money....you can tour outside the country and still dont need to allow people to take ya ? over.

    Maybe we are differing on what we believed he meant by inclusive. I'm not talking about letting other people take over. I'm talking about including people in the culture. Blacks can't flourish off things we keep solely to ourselves. We've got a lot of spending power in our community, but nothing compared to what the rest of the world would offer.

    How to make an afro, for white women


    566f03aa1600002c00eb8c0e.png

    People will see something wrong with this.

    I don't.


    Black women been jacking snow bunnies..(long straight blonde weaves, blue contacts etc.) I'm not saying people of African descent don't have those features naturally but it's not those people American black women are copying...it's white women.

    Black women could've been and still can be showing white women how to turn their hair into fros....go make money off the ? cuz that's what the U.S. Is all about.

    Wow, on the first page a black person already defending whites while blaming your own. Sad...

    I heard slim thug was driving Bentleys before he had a deal and master p was making a shitload of money before white people even knew who he was. We don't need them to make money that is just another trick that they pulled on us

    Yep.. He doesn't have a problem with Becky getting an afro because black girls been jackin' snowbunnies.

    WTF?

    He doesn't realize that the oppressor forced their lifestyle, their religion, their language, their culture, etc on us for centuries.


    Blacks have NEVER forced any of our culture on white folks... EVER!!!

    Like I said before: White people imitate us because they want to.

    Not because we were the dominant majority who enslaved and brainwashed them for hundreds of years.

    That has NEVER happened.

    Master P admitted himself that a lot of the money he used to start No Limit was from drugs. That's pretty common in the Hip Hop industry. I'm not sure that's the example you want to give. And how many successful rappers have there been in the past few decades? How many of those rappers were doing nearly as well before they became crossover successes? No one rappers can't make money without support from nonblacks. However, it's a lot easier to do it with that support and a wider variety of potential fans also makes it possible for a wider variety of artists to be successful.
