I was saying that people didn't even know about Jcole's album until the headline came out that he dissed iggy.
I buy his albums and forgot until that headline came out.
Now with macklemore this isn't his first attempt to "admit" his privilege as if that changes things.
It's an empty statement to be accepted from a group that won't accept him.
He's not giving up a part of his royalties, publishing, salary and donating it to an urban cause.
He wants attention and with miley and iggy being in a backlash phase they are easy targets.
Elvis is a legend but the rumblings of distaste from him doing it still is present in the black community.
From Elvis, beach boys, madonna, vanilla ice, eminem, beastie boys, george michael, britney spears, xtina aguilera, katy, bieber, miley, iggy, macklemore etc
this has been done before; however, to "admit" it for acceptance that you won't get...
is it worth puckering up to the hip hop community's bottom
Really?
Hip hop icon.
' doesn't make it any better or any worse.
