The question is why do you need to listen to White MC's anyway?

Whites have already infiltrated and owned the marketing of HipHop music, virtually the most important aspect ... let that sink in
 
White people that are poor and struggle typically grow up in areas where Rock/Country/Blues is their ticket out not rap. And as far as this whole country shit it's easier in many ways than rap.

If i am poor and white and living rurally i just need to be able to kinda sing and have a marketable tough boy and or pretty boy image. From there i can buy songs in nashville and create an image. I can pay for a dope band to back me up. If i make it 90% of my songs will be ghost written by the country songwriters who are ugly as fuck but can write fo me because I have the style/image that sells.

Past that poor whites who want to make it with musical talent tend to go to blues/rock to make it. And those white kids who grow up poor and try to take rap seriously are laughed out the room.

In short. For poor white folks in the struggle country music as an easier come up and rock and blues (despite niggas innovating that shit) is more acceptable and marketable than being a white rapper.

Because hip hop started as a subculture to give the underdog a voice. Its supposed to be about the struggle and be anti-establishment and most white people belong to the establishment. Nobody wants to listen to a suburban kid rap about how mad he is that his pops wont let him drive the Porsche

Chuck D said it best "Rap is CNN for black people" and the meaning behind that statement is true for every other country also. In countries like France, UK and Germany the most successfull rappers have an immigrant background because hip hop overseas is modeled after how it all began in the US

There actually are quite few white rappers out now they just aren't mainstream.

There's a million and one white rappers on Youtube, but that's what I'm trying to figure out, how come they can't make it in the mainstream?
 
Because poor black people don't relate to poor white people problems

So they music really don't translate well.

In order for white emcees to make it. We as black people have to accept their music. And a lot of times we don't. No matter how nice they are.

Most of them sound like Drake also. That might have something to do with it they all clones.

But that's simply not true. Black people don't have to accept white rappers, WHITE PEOPLE HAVE TO ACCEPT WHITE RAPPERS as they're the majority.

If the majority of white people supported a white rapper (like Eminem) he'd go multiplatinum every time. What I can't figure out is why there aren't more Eminems?

We don't need anymore Eminem's one is enough. Plus Eminem isn't even the best white rapper.

There's plenty of white rappers just not too many mainstream. These days they're givin more of a chance than say 20 years ago. However for every good one there's at least 20 Slim Jesus actin pussies who look like they need to stick to workin at GameStop.

None of those guys have a hit.

In order to be in the top 10 conversation you have to have hit songs and make an impact on society.

2Pac, Big, Jay, Nas, they all have hits.

If you go back to the 80s you'll find GOAT MCs that didn't have hits because top 40 radio didn't play rap. But nowadays (or since the mid 90s) there's no excuse for not having a hit single in your discography.

It's not even because of the hits. They just aren't even close to Ems level. I'm a fan of Slug. He's a dope freestyler & he's put out some great albums but Em is the undisputed best white MC ever. No disputing that.
