there are shit load of black rappers in the uk alone
that wasn't your opinion that was your ignorance as you said you don't even know what your talking about
youre only seeing race in what im trying to say....so there is your ignorance. let me try and explain it better since youre so dull.Quote:

It only takes one track. A track so good or so catchy that it makes it over here and is sold over here.....get me? It takes time. As far as ppl hearing a few tracks from euro rappers and disliking the music who cares? they are allowed an opinion. if its not identical to your opinion you dont have to bitch about it.
now jump off my bawls
I see what you are saying Ed, it would take time and it would have to be that one certain song combined with the right marketing in order for it to have any impact in the states.
It's funny because I just remembered that there is a uk group called SAS who if im not mistaken are signed to Damon Dash's ROC label, they tour with people like Beanie Seigel and Kanye, the irony is though is that probably more people like them in america than they do in the uk.
haha, definetley. Thats why eminem is always unhappy, cause he had to go a little pop to be accepted, he had to sell records. But you see it in guys like paz, alot of them philly dudes. They get accepted, but mainstream is still hard. Long live vanilla ice's legacy.Quote:

I guess the Hip Hop cultre has still to bridge that gap. And i hope it does...
Remember folks. Hip Hop is a great cultre, but its not the only one in the
WORLD.
PEACE

Ali G probably didnt help either because most Americans didnt realise he was a complete pisstake. God its funny when Americans call him a rapper, its like calling Apollo Creed a boxing legend :)
^^ They dont know
Rap or hip hop, as they call it.........
Its music man. What do you think about when you think about Hip Hop ??
Nah man. Plz tell me..
Hip Hop music is about REAL life stuff. Yea...........
Hip hop is fuckin life in general.. You think coz you be from America, you have
the right to tell people wat hip hop is..
Nah man. Hip Hop is life son.
No matter where you live boy.
I feel you man but the thing is a lot of people not just americans go by what they see on tv instead of finding the information for themselves.Quote:

Yea man. I hear ya tauro..
But most americans dont want to hear other music unless its usa style.
Sad but verry true.
We dont stress it though, Its a shame that hip hop dosent have the same
communicaition as music like TECHNO.
After all. Hip Hop is meant to be world wide
you should explain yourself more fully in futureQuote:

I know people who live in america who LOVE other music in europe. (Fact)
These people are not ignorant. But as always, there are people in the usa
who are ignorant. Its like that in every country.
Just IMAGINE what it would be like if people from AFRICA never went to America. We wouldent have Hip Hop music right ??
Dizzee Rascal shits all over any "rapper" from the southern states of america and anyone from the west coast of america. Fucking bubba sparks chamillionaire the chain hang low fuckfaces OH SHIT THEY'RE GREAT. Get fucked

are you sure?Quote:

in fact, even the non hip hop radio stations in T-Dot bump K-Os' shit
But of course there is a lot of American stuff too.

its still like that to a large extent....but these days ive noticed that they are playing the top 10 less often. Its just that sometimes Canadian tracks are in the top 10....ive been hearing some shit that I thought would never be on the radio again.Quote:

Thats a silly statement, my love for hip hop was founded by american mc's, we just don't have to like some of the bullshit coming out now that passes for hip hop in your country.Quote:

do you listen to asian hiphop? what about israeli hiphop? what about rappers from south america? have any of their music?Quote:

No I don't take the charts as face value but thanks to the net I can keep up with what you guys like there and while I do know that people have been voicing their opinions on the current state of hip hop there are still a lot of americans that blindly believe that that hyphy/snap bullshit is hip hop. Don't even deny it Tzu cos I could pull up threads from this very site with people defending that shit.Quote:

I do have hip hop from south america and central america, at the mo im trying to get some brazilian and portuguese rap too.Quote:

Thank you Jasper....those Lizards are dope as shite

i won't lie, i like to listen to lyrics, so foreign languages don't appeal to me... but my biggest hate with hip hop from non-americans, is people who put on false american accents... i hear them with europeans, australians, new zealanders, islanders, asians etc etc... i'm not interested in someone from one part of the world, acting like they are from another part of the world... you know, like dutch-morrocans talking and using slang like they were there in staten island or brooklyn during the pre-36 chambers days...
and also, why do americans have to give everything a try? if they've heard a few different european acts and they don't like them, why do they have to keep listening to find one that they like?
and before you fly off the handle, i'm not american, so don't try with the 'typical this' or 'this is what i'm talking about...' type rubbish...
