when i say appeal to black people i mean black people should be able to atleast digest your music. Lets use eminem as an example. i think black people can rock to his music. the way he rhymes and puts words together he does so in a way that anyone can digest it.
I think you just answered your own question. To be successful in hip-hop, it would make sense to have a universal appeal, and to not cater to only a specific group of rap fans, but to rap fans as a whole.

well the main point i was making is that hip hop is black music. Yes making music with univeral appeal is a great thing but it doesn't change the fact hip-hop is black music.

earlier in the thread i mentioned you shouldn't cater your music to any one group.

I think Artistic is a damn fool....he sounds like my 72 year old gandpa...

Eminem, a white dude, is the best selling hip hop artist of all time....Tiger woods, a fuckin black/chinese guy, is the most decorated golfer of all time.....Yao Ming, a fuckin chinese dude, is/was (dunno if he still is) the tallest player in the NBA.....its 2010 drop the fuckin 'racist' shit man......bottom line, If you wanna sell records, make your music appeal to 15 year old girls.......

to try to make something appealing to a race is to stereotype.. if you wanna be successful in hip hop then you gotta make your material appealing to the urban coulture.

so a good friend invited me for an interview on berkeleyliberationradio.net on thursday night. so during the interview the other host of the show asks me what is it like to be a latin artist and what challenges do i face?

so off the top of my head, i responded well hip-hop is black music so i think whatever race you are if you're gonna be successful in hip-hop your music should appeal to black people.

right when i said that dude that was asking me the questions asked me like 4 followup questions kinda arguing with me. I just explained like Big Pun was the most successful latin mc and black people could rock with his music(relate to it). then dude asked me about rappers that rap in different languages and all types of shit.

just want to see what yall think about this question. when i get the audio from the interview ill post it.

SHUT UP BITCH

im not saying anything racist. to say hip-hop is black music is racist? WOW

would it be racist to say the blues is black music?
HIP HOP IS NOT BLACK MUSIC BITCH! BLUES IS NOT BLACK MUSIC BITCH! REGARDLESS OF WERE IT OR HOW IT WAS ORIGINATED, ITS NOT SPECIFIED TO ANY RACE! MUSIC IS BROKEN DOWN INTO GENRE'S AND YES, DIFFERENT CROWDS LIKE DIFFERENT GENRES BUT THAT DOESNT PUT A TITLE ON ANY OF THE GENRES. BITCH!
