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.
Rap may be "black music", but white people are the ones who keep it afloat. You want to be a successful rapper? Appeal to WHITE people.

I find it funny just imagining someone writing a song and they like "alright man I gotta make white/black people feel this".

Good music is good music, why would anyone try to appeal to just one race? lol
