Cause you're super white and insular with your whiteness so you can't relate to other philosophies. How can you talk about socialism and not sympathize with music that's basically about wanting to not be poor and asserting your own worth?

Yeah I was a pre-teen right at the tipping point of white kids saying "You can't spell 'crap' without 'rap'" and then all of a sudden they're listening to Jay-Z. My age group should be far more prone to this sentiment than his and yet I dropped it like a rock after playing GTA San Andreas because of course I did.

That's when you become a leader and create a following of weirdos. Also who the **** ever liked the music at high school parties? That's not why you were there.

Seriously though, if you talk about socialism and the working class, well hi ho here's music made by the working class expressing a basic desire to not be poor and you denigrate it because it doesn't live up to your expectations of what you support as a snob. It might not be self-aware music at times but it's an honest expression of dissatisfaction with how society has treated them and it's still important if nothing else but as a document of a social group's feelings.

This doesn't make you sound any less hopelessly white.
