In terms of actual hip-hop hits, she's had ONE single do well on Urban radio. And Black people ARE hugely popular in pop lol, are Beyonce and Rihanna not two of the biggest popstars not only today, but to ever do it? No one ranks close to them today except Taylor Swift and to a lessor extent, Katy.

Exactly, all of this
She's called what she does Pop Rap. That's what it is. It's mainstream, and its doing well. It's ridiculous to act like she's a white artist stealing success from black artists like I'm seeing so many people do. She's doing her thing, let her be.
