You are on point! That's what I'm talking about! How does a fake corporate manufactured MC help/encourage the artistry? Before Eminem there was Vanilla Ice, Snow... I want my dope white female to be TRUE that's what Hip-Hop is about not race, but celebrating about what is great about YOU. I'm partial to Brooke

Great you took some time to at least research theories that have yet to be proven...

You did not read Gladwell...

What? They are scientists anthropologists, sociologists, psychologists, biologists, statisticians and hell the father of the double helix a range of disciplines.

She get's blasted cause she suxxx. If she wasn't white or pretty there would be no debate. I'll take Debbie Harry over Iggy. Hocouture makes a good point about disliking her over a very fucked up line (given her long proximity to black people she should have at the very least known better, yes?), however she fails

Yeahh... I think I heard that argument from Chelsea Handler...

It's unscientific to generalize without supporting data.
