I'm not trying to be a racist or anything, but white people can't rap. I know thats obvious to most people but up until a minute ago when people said that I thought "No, thats just a stereotype. White people can rap, they just don't." But cmon, there isn't one good white rapper. By "Good Rapper" I don't mean "Talented Rapper", because Eminem and Slug are both talented rappers, but they waste their talent by rhyming about stupid shit. So one good white rapper. Will Smiths doesn't count.

Mike Skinner
Even though I think the 1st 2 Streets albums are brilliant (the othere ones not so brilliant), Mike Skinner can't rap. He has some good lyrics and good production skills, but I wouldn't say he is a good rapper.

VINNIE PAZ, perhaps the best "underground" rapper atm, though he has no lyrical variation

Aesop Rock
Sage Francis
Ill Bill
Goretex

Not a big fan of Atmosphere..

Just got a Brother Ali CD, let's see where this goes, he's part of Atmosphere's Rhymesayers but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.

There are some good white rappers out there.

Going back a decade or two to when at least rap was sort of fresh instead of the tired rubbish that gets churned out nowadays, I would go for 'King Boy D' from the Jams albums '1987 what the fuck...' and 'Who killed the Jams?' with MC Tunes getting a mention upon meeting 808 State.

When you have a handful of random musicians, most of the handful are not going to be talented enough to be considered "good" enough to be listened to widespread. Popularity and recognition in music can be a hit and miss game. Hip-hop/Rap has been a part of African/Black culture far longer and more widespread then in white culture. There are white rappers, and I'm sure some good ones. However, you are obviously going to be seeing black rappers more often, because of the predominant number of blacks engaging in the industry. It's definitely nothing racial, though not to say that some members of the "rap community" might be reluctant to have white members (the reverse can be said for the "country community"). It's all just the luck of the draw. If you have have 10 blue marbles and 4 white marbles, in 2/7 are "winners". The "winners" are MORE LIKELY to be blue marbles.

The funny thing about what you said is that these days most rappers period say hardly anything worthwhile... fortunately to find most of the best rappers depite color are in the underground, cause the mainstream is just breeding garbage.. peep these cats called Raw Data... all white group although I think color is actually no freaking factor in rapping, idiotic..


guess I can't post links.. look up "raw data hip hop" in google or type in "raw data" in youtube..

Brother Ali's definitely the best white rapper out.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e45D8DqSmN0

Freeway's annoying imo, but Ali's verse on this track is amazing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aJYMYRMprY

RA Scion from Common Market's legit if you can stay with him.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwLXfHMqvZU

Sweatshop Union. One of them is Arab I believe

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKM9odw4P6U

Braille's really talented as well.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyj_XbDnMcY

And this is probably my favorite rap group; Giant Panda...there's a white guy, as well as a mixed race guy and a Japanese guy. Has an old school vibe to it...

Also, this dude Grip Grand if you're into battle rap type stuff

Both the Grouch and Eligh are white... I highly recommend this track - ft. Gift of Gab and Pigeon John

Why I think he is the only rapper I know that actually raps about something that doesnt include women, pussy, or dick.

You obviously haven't listened to most of eminems music then. Also there are plenty of rappers who don't make songs about 'women, pussy or dick' and most of them are a great deal better than eminem.
