racist

Strange how much better and more adventurous white hip hop is.

half that album sucks, and i've been a buck fan since way before he changed his voice and started doing that corny country stuff
white rap...is not.....better than:

1.Ice-t-Original Gangster
2.Public Enemy-Fear of a Black Planet
3.Outkast-Aquemini
4.Outkast-Atliens
5.Non Phixion-The Future is now(ok...so this is white rap)

but there is no white rap, black music made by white people is still black music

not in order:

funcrusher plus
fear of a black planet
operation doomsday
critical beatdown
illmatic

non-phixion are white

It's great from beginning to end.

i actually had edited that, but to be honest sabac is puerto rican and goretex is half mexican so not really, and dj premier,large professor,pete rock, beatnuts,mf doom etc. are a part of that album and not white

they aren't in non-phixion either

Best hip hop newcomer in ages.

i didn't list the group, i listed the album, and those people are absolutely part of the album

Enter the Wu-Tang
Illmatic
The Future is Now
Dare Iz a Darkside
The Cold Vein

sabac is part puerto rican, part italian.

necro produces 6 tracks on the album and he's pasty as fuck.

Adventurous? So white guys mixing a predominately white genre, country, in with a predominately black genre, hip-hop. Yeah well done, whats adventurous about that?!

I'm kind of pleasantly surprised that people are listing things that are not just Jay-Z and Eminem albums, not saying those aren't good, just obvious.
