Back in the days, Rap game which can also called Hip-Hop is originated by blacks , while the likes of late 2pack, B.I.G and others put the genre of music in lips of millions of people around the world.
Without no sentiment Hip-Hop is for the blacks musicians , but in recent days it seems our black is losing out the hardworking of their great heroes and mentor to the white guys.
About few hours ago, American rapper J.Cole, just set the internet ablaze with his claim that ‘White People have Snatched the Black Sound’ in the music industry.
His claim is embedded in the lyrics to his latest song ” Fire Squad ” where he calls out Eminem,Iggy, Elvis, and Justin Timberlake.
For this year edition of American Music Award 2014, Eminem, Macklemore and Iggy Azalea beat Drake and Eminem for Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album & Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Artist category.
Here is lyrics from his latest song ” Fire Squad” where his disses the White stars such as Eminem,Iggy, Elvis, and Justin Timberlake .
“History repeats itself and that’s just how it goes / Same way that these rappers always bite each other’s flows / Same thing that my ni**a Elvis did with rock ‘n’ roll / Justin Timberlake, Eminem, and then Macklemore,”
“While silly ni**as argue over who gon’ snatch the crown / Look around my ni**a, white people have snatched the sound / This year I’ll probably go to the awards dappered down / Watch Iggy win a Grammy as I try to crack a smile.”
In my own vie, the blacks guys are yet to see anything, because the south Koreans guys are doing great for themselves and they are moving faster in recent days. What they just need is to start rapping and singing in English, we will be in serious trouble.
RESPONSES (in my head to J.Cole) from these “white rappers that snatched the sound”
I’m So Fancy, I’m Iggy
You Can’t Hold Us Down (J.Cole), Macklemore’s last year
J. it’s a “coleworld” but I think it’s ‘Not a Bad Thing’ Justin Timberlake
J. Cole you know I ain’t got time for the nonsense, ‘Guts Over Fear’ Menh! Eminem
Do you agree with J.Cole?
