Screw rap. Let's have some rock and roll

Two nights ago, I was with Jack White (you probably know him from White Stripes). He is a partner in a really cool, new baseball bat and apparel company. They make good stuff.

Last night, I was with Greta Van Fleet. Robert Plant said they are his new favorite band. Check them out.

In fact, before Biggie's debut album, there were only a handful of rap albums that went #1, most of them being white rappers that could be marketed to the audience that bought albums: whites. It included Beastie Boys and Vanilla Ice.

Talk about bullsh*t arguments. That's just a lie. There were 11-12 rap albums that topped Billboard's top 200 before Biggie's first album dropped. That's certainly more than a "a handful." Btw, of those, only 2 were white which isn't anywhere close to "most."

If you have a handful of M&Ms, how many do you have? It's reasonable to think you'd have anywhere from 10-20. If you have a handful of pennies, how many do you have? It's reasonable to think you'd have anywhere from 15-30. 11 albums having gone #1 is completely reasonable to classify as "only a handful" considering there have been about 150 more since then. 11 of 160+ is definitely "only a handful."

If you're going to challenge something, at least make sure it is a reasonable argument to be made. Arguing pathetic semantics like you've resorted to as a desperate tactic is more cowardly than throwing in the towel.

Btw, of those, only 2 were white which isn't anywhere close to "most."

You and Murox should get together so you can study how to count to three together. Vanilla Ice is one. Beastie Boys had two of those 11, which totals three. Cypress Hill is at least half white, regardless if one of their parents has Hispanic lineage. Two of them look as white as Herdfan06.

Again, semantics . . . and you still can't count.

Bullsh*t^^^

Bullsh*t^^^

So much of it that you can't refute any of it. Exactly.

So, to be clear, in your mind Vanilla Ice and the Beastie Boys equate to "most"? And 2 Cubans and a Mexican/Cuban are "white"? You're an idiot.

Beastie Boys had two out of the eleven, so they count twice. They also are all white which gives them 12 in terms of white artists making up the 11 #1 albums.

Take the time and count all of the artists individually (solo and in groups) and you'll see that "most" of them are white in context of the 11 albums that went #1. Regardless of how you want to count them to help your desperate arguments, it is semantics. The crux of the matter is that your arguments have all been shit, so now you're resorting to your last hope: arguing semantics to change the focus of the discussion.

And, yes, these two guys are white. Nobody is looking at them and thinking "well, I bet his maternal grandfather was Cuban and his mom is Italian before he was adopted by a Norwegian couple." In the context of this discussion, people would consider them white:

I'm not "arguing semantics." My initial point that Biggie is overrated still stands. Never had a no. 1 album until he died. Only reason his 2nd went to no.1 is because he was killed 2 weeks b/f it dropped.

As for the above pics, one is cuban/mexican, so, no, he's not "white." The other is cuban/italian. Still not "white."

Nobody chooses to be a victim of racism.

Figuratively speaking...yes they do. They definitely choose whether or not “racism” determines their path.

victims in their hypothetical rape

I would never tell a victim of a rape (hypothetical or otherwise) that such an act determines their future, prevents them from success or defines their value to society in anyway. I leave that up to compassionate bigots like you.
