You know with this round of hacking on SOHH and the response from Felicia Palmer we once again have the issue of race thrown into the mix. Im into hip hop and Im white, not that it matters but I am so I’ll throw that out there because I know for many of you it will slant what I say. But for many of you you’ll understand where Im coming from regardless of race.

Hip hop is huge these days, it’s everywhere now. It’s in commericals, even old hip hop slang is being used by people on Fox News or in the most un hip hop like places you can imagine. Kids are buying it, singles are blowing up and it’s more popular than ever. It’s more diverse than ever as well, maybe more diverse than most other genre’s of music at this point. Have many of us forgot what it’s about. I think the people at SOHH forgot what it was about. I learned that in my year of running their SOHH Dirty blog. I see alot of other places forgot what it was about as well. It’s now rumors, gossip, beef, cars, clothes and hoes. But hip hop was really about reality at it’s core. Hip hop wasnt black or white, it was the voice of reality straight from the streets like we had never heard it before. Hip hop spoke to you in a way that you could understand and it brought us closer regardless of race.

So with that said thats why I hate to see race constantly injected into everything. We all know it’s there and we all know it’s a difference, but its only one of many. We’re all different in so many ways short but so much time is given to this one small difference. As I’ve grown I’ve decided that I dont give a shit about changing the haters, let them hate. If they dont like you for color, clothes, or anything else fuck them and move on. Lets let hip hop do what it does and speak to those of that are listening and can change and can make a difference. In fact the more we talk about race the further we get from coming together. Lets talk about real shit like economics and opportunity, for those of us that have and those who dont. Lets talk about the shit that really matters instead of trying to change the minds of those who dont matter.

My hip hop elevates the game, it doesnt further the stereotypes or seperate. Fuck a hater, fuck a racist, fuck all of those people who stand in the way of that. Felicia Palmer could have better spoke about hacking, but she’s blinded by the seperation and the slight differences. When she said this

It appears that hackers are specifically targeting Black, Hispanic, Asian and Jewish youth who ascribe to hip hop culture.

She lost the way and the path of real hip hop and what its really about. Are there not White kids on SOHH non stop? Since when were they going out of their way to embrace Jewish people on SOHH any more than anyone else. She threw out the keywords to continue the bullshit rather than bring it together. You got targeted maybe because you were SOHH full of yourselves. Thats not real hip hop. She might as well have said some George Bush bullshit like they hate us for our freedom, its the same thing. Now show me that you’re real hip hop and you can feel me, or show me that you’re part of the bullshit and tell me I dont understand because Im white.
