I am so tired of being blamed for racism, just because I'm white! A white man can't call a black person a "my pals" but they call each other that. How does that make any sense? It's hypocritical. I don't like it when black people hate on white rappers - I'm not a rapper myself, I'm a metal dude, but still it's freaking racist! So what - just ignore the reality of Vanilla Ice AND The Beastie Boys and treat white people badly just because they wanna bust a rhyme? AND BY THE DOG-BANGIN' WAY! Eminem is NOT the first white rapper, nor is he the best of them. The Beastie Boys got into hip hop and rap in what - maybe 1979-1980? Somewhere around that time. It REALLY pisses me off when people act like Eminem is so special just because he's a white man that raps. That's just stupid. Everybody seems to have forgotten about Vanilla Ice, the guy who made that song, "Ice Ice Babey."
Being white does not mean that I couldn't or shouldn't get into hip hop or rap if I wanted to - I don't, but that's just because I love metal! It's not because I'm white. Being white also does not mean I'm racist!
This is the sort of thing that happens regularly: A black person sees some white guys listening to "black" music - hip hop and rap, (which history will show is not truly any more "black" then it is "white" or "yellow" or whatever), gets pissed off, gets on their cases and calls them "wiggers." And then he's got the audacity to go around calling white people, "whiteboy," "whitey," "cracker," "honkey," or whatever...(and we can't call them "my pals"? Oh wait! I forgot; my ancestors two hundred years ago were racist slave-owners, and somehow I'm guilty for it...yeah,
right).
I am not racist. I don't think that all black people are racist either; I have plenty of really awesome black friends. I don't give a fuck. I have
absolutely no white guilt and if that bothers any racist bigots out there, regardless of their skin color, then this is what I say to them:
