Minorities posted:Yep. That sarcastic little remark was definitely the worst part. And yes it was racist as hell because those people think that only black people (and the occasional poor white guy who might as well be black anyway because he's poor) make hip-hop music. Or it was a sarcastic remark by a white lady who knows she is about to spit some of the saddest bars to ever be spat. Everyone is laughing because it is so loving terribly awkward, not because of black people.

Minorities (btw, I find your name extremely offensive), why do you have to be so sarcastic and cynical? We all know that Fox News is fair and balanced. It even says so in the advertisements.

Intel&Sebastian posted:There are undoubtably white rap acts that aren't serious and might, if you're feeling particularly sensitive, be construed as offensive. Practically none of them are very popular or well known because no one who cares about it so little is going to have the dedication to the craft. I literally put Deltron 3030 at the very front of my rant, Dan Nakamura(AKA Dan the Automator) and Eric San(AKA Kid Koala) are the two Asian musicians I mentioned. I mentioned Macklemore too, the middle class white kid from Seattle. The point I was trying to make is that if nerdcore rappers knew poo poo about rap, they would realize nerds and white people are already accepted as part of the main stream and not think they have to carve out their own subgenre separate from the rest of rap and hip-hop, they'd try to join into the rest of the scene because if "Swag swag, got Death Note swag/That anime swag put a nigga in a bag" doesn't get you laughed out of the genre, then your skills should be able to carry you no matter how nerdy your lyrics are(okay, I guess maybe not if you rap about loving lolis or something). That's why I said they're pushing that message unintentionally, they're just too ignorant of rap for the most part to realize that if they raised their game, they wouldn't have to pin themselves to the nerdcore label. EDIT: I don't even know why I jumped into the nerdcore derail, nerdcore has nothing to do with whether or not the Dana Perino rap was being used by Fox to perpetuate stereotypes or not. Warcabbit posted:I got the rest of them (and was trying to figure out if I should say something about how Professor Macklemore is the world's most Pacific Northwest-est rapper ever, man) but I'm blanking on this, it's probably incredibly obvious but... That's Deltron 3030. Also they need to hurry the gently caress up and release the second album already, it's been 13 years.

A lot of music can be bad without mocking the music style it's emulating. Was working on some stuff at a church today and they had Glenn Beck playing. He was talking about how the government is planning on registering all the gold people own and how China is forcing the price of gold down (but it won't stay down for long) because they want to destroy our economy. Then after his commercial break, which consisted entirely of things like Lifelock, life insurance, titanium backup, and other things you should be scared of, came back to say that a friend's uncle down in Texas was visited by the ATF. They wanted to come into his house and make sure he wasn't making guns, and they also gave him a lie detector test to make sure he wasn't. I don't understand how people can listen to this poo poo all day long.

Lower gold prices would actually be a boon for the sectors of industry that use gold for parts, gold mining isn't a major contributor to our GDP and the goldbugs never stop whining about how we're off the gold standard.

It's generally very bad, but that has nothing to do with the content or their skin color. And if being bad at your music genre means you're offending the originating race then bad garage rock bands from here to China owe black bluesmen hella reperations. And I missed your 2nd post 400, sorry about that. There's a track from Deltron event 2 streaming somewhere out there but I think it's been available for a year so who knows if it's still official. I promise I'm done.

Princeps32 posted:Several real human beings that live on the same planet as everyone else think motherfucking Sean Hannity is sucking up to Obama. That just blows my mind. I mean I know there's a growing number of people that think Fox News is centrist, but seriously? It warms the cockles of my heart to imagine the slowly dawning horror on the faces of Hannity and others at Fox News as they realize that a sizable portion of their viewer base is in fact completely insane, and will not be following them down a more "moderate" path that they hope will lead Republicans back to the White House (even though it's really just trying to dress up the usual bigoted tropes in a nicer set of clothes); and instead are insisting that Fox News is part of the "liberal media" because they do stuff like criticize Michelle Bachmann and "refuse" to report on the "obvious" "scandal" that is Benghazi.

I also always thought that white guy rapping with "My name is _____ and I'm here to say" was always a joke about older (white) people being out of touch with younger people and minorities. Context being everything when I hear conservatives do it or make fun of rap it does come off as being racist. Nerdcore is just awful, it doesn't help most of the performers if we can call them that just make lame music.
