Yesterday when the babymom picked me up to spend the holiday with her mom's family and their friends, she brought this discussion up. She's an Iggy Azalea fan and knows I pretty much despise her, so I got to play devils advocate on my opinion of this debate.

Nearly all of the same points that have been brought up in this thread were mentioned by her at some point.

Now she's a smart cookie and threw me for a loop with this one. I said that I can relate to the Iggy Azalea haters about her being an Aussie that's profiting from a distinctly American music style, which is tied directly to American politics, frame and concerns.

She said in rebuttal that Nicki Minaj is also foreign bred and didn't make a statement about the shootings. She has a point. I'm convinced that this has to do more with searching for any reason to publicly decry your competition without a solid reason while not looking like an apparent hater.

This video explains all you need to know about this "Artist"

How is that any different from this? How is it any different from her entire career of shock jocking?




This is like watching vegetarians protest the cruelty of mammal meat on the basis of those animals having feelings while actively eating fish.

Multiculturalism to the left of me, cultural appropriation to the right... Sometimes you just can't win.

Damn right.

Take these two appropriating motherfuckers:



That's Bruno Mars and Mark Ronson, currently funking up the charts with the 1970's American disco homage Uptown Funk.

This a disgusting example of cultural appropriation - Ronson, the guy who wrote the song, is as English as wanking to a picture of the Queen on a £20 note.


She loves it.

But it's also temporal appropriation, because those bastards are stealing from the 70's. Much as he might sort-of remind you of a young Michael Jackson before it all started to go horribly weird, Bruno Mars wasn't even alive in the 70's.

And how about these shiny-helmeted cunts:


Pharell thought he was doing an episode of Battlestar Galactica

Again, black American 70's funk is being stolen by people who are not black, American, or living in the 1970's. In fact, they're not even human! Daft Punk are actually androids, originally built by the French Ministry of Prostitution to serve as pleasurebots.


Gay pleasurebots.

Hip-hop is a culture that encompasses, style of dress, slang, food choice, recreation, music, etc. Rap is the music of hip-hop culture.

It's traditionally divided into 5 Elements:

DJ'ing
Breakdancing
Graffiti
Beatboxing
Rapping

Rap and hip-hop are not synonyms like others have suggested: e.g, ikebana is a facet of Japanese culture but the inverse doesn't make sense.

R&B is totally separate music genre from rap. Think R. Kelly, Ginuwine, The Dream, etc.

Beat me to it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Hip Hop is/was a cultural movement. Rap is merely just one of the elements it was comprised of.

R&B itself way older than Hip Hop and even rapping (I think). WIA could correct me on that. R&B music dates back to the 1940s or so.
