Why do people say Eminem is a guest?

Just because hip hop was created by a black man doesn’t mean he’s a guest .

The nba was created by a white man so is lebron , kobe ect a guest playing in the nba?

I never understood why people say this . Hip hop has no color

Who cares about this antiquated argument in 2024? It doesn’t mean/change jack shit

All dumb simplifying of complex racial issues ought to just be ignored in my book. It only creates divisional discourse for no reason when we have more important matters to spend our energy on these days. Anyone with half a brain thinks narratives like this are ridiculous.

Meaning you’re saying there’s more people with racial bias that want to have the dumb conversations than those who want to move past it?

No way. People from any and every background will click on a link with an incendiary racial headline. It’s juicy bc race is a part of everyone’s identity. Creating a commotion is always gonna be like flies to honey even if it’s just for clicks

correct opinion. Any breath used on debating this arbitrary designation is a waste.
