Matter fact, without Hip Hop Culture and Black Culture what do you even have? Any listeners? Serious questions. You needed Black culture to have a name for yourself. You're a visitor, always will be.

He's speaking from different perspectives. He was Kanye at some point.. Kobe... and Nip.. Will Smith etc. Addressing the immense amount of impact these people had and still have on the culture. Also each line specifically spaced their POVs

Been saying this for years. He was not raised in the typical AA experience. From racial profiling to education/Prison pipeline. From red lining or gentrification. From prison industrial complex to outright discrimination. Bro a visitor and decided to play colonizer.

I see, my indirect question was for purchasing a home; how this income would be calculated or if it's viewed as a debt - does this typically show up in credit bureaus that kind of thing? How would they calculate annual income? Might be an out of scope question.
Blackness varies by ethnicity, culture, and context, often imposed or internally embraced. White privilege has long influenced the music industry, where many American genres originate from Black culture. Most of us welcome anyone, all we ask for is cultural sensitivity.

I agree with this the most. In battle raps if someone can convince other people your opponent is A; then it doesn't even matter... Authenticity can be a weapon in Rap.
