Lol I'll have to check it out, but I legitimately jam out to Adam WarRock beyond his nerdy lyrics. If these other dudes got jams then I'll be all about it though.

Adam WarRock doesn't come off as "bad" by any means, but there's something about rappers who sound overly white that I just can't deal with. Does that make me racist? I hope.

Agreed. I dig white german and russian rappers, but when rapping in english, black voices just sound better to me.

Do black people even exist in Germany and Russia?

Quite a few in Germany, some fine rappers among them. In Russia on the other hand black people are very rare.

Strangely enough I would have thought it'd be the other way around, not sure why.

Not gonna argue that, but white rappers can sound more casual in a way that allows for fun. Asher Roth might be softer than baby ****, but "I Love College" is still some chill ass bong music.

I actually liked a fair bit of Asher's work. I dig Mac Miller, El-P, Pouya, and Apathy too and they all sound pretty white. I think the music just has to have some sort of substance to it other than just being rap music that appeals to white people because it's made by other white people i.e Hoodie Allen or G-Eazy.

I used to be more about Def Jux and Rhymesayers, but now a lot of those groups are pretty lame to me, but I still get enjoyment out of **** like Cage El-P, Brother Ali, and Atmosphere (though less from the last two). And don't forget that Aesop Rock is a cracker from Def Jux, even if I'm not the biggest fan.
