@EtH and @SoupErb … Yeah obviously anybody could be beaten up anywhere, but saying thats true to the same degree everywhere you go is bullshit. If you are in certain cities and hit the wrong person in the face or say the wrong thing, you can find yourself dead real quick… and Baltimore is one of those places.

Also, I never said I was from the hood… and I'm pretty sure Baltimore is a whole lot more dangerous than Manchester, so I don't see why I would be uncomfortable there… You live in fucking North Yorkshire. Yeah I know a lot of country Brits own guns and there are a bunch of soccer hooligans, but really? You are lucky you are where you are, because evidently its okay to run your mouth about personal shit, which just wouldn't fly in harder places.

The only thing that I would be slightly uncomfortable with in Manchester is all the really white drunken British people… and not because they scare me in the least.

Come to Baltimore, walk down Pennsylvania Avenue at night…. SMH, the city I live in has a hit HBO show about it called The Wire about how gangs and corruption go hand in hand.… and that shit is real, not exaggerated. Have you heard of it? Maybe you should check it out before talking about how hard its is to be a white male in Manchester? (Your life is automatically much easier than many others, and all I'm saying is that should be recognized before making a thread about how great your shit is.)

Yeah alright, try hitting a 15 year old with his mates in the middle of Glasgow and see what happens then. It doesn't matter where you are, that shit happens all the time. You think you're from the baddest place around and you'd be complete comfortable because they don't have guns? Smh watch out guys, Mike Tyson up in here.

I was talking to Phoenix earlier, and he was telling me how people in his country are fighting with rocket launchers and stuff all the time. You think Baltimore is hard? You think walking down there at night is rough? Yeah, try walking down his street and night then.

You act like you've got this big hard life, but as I said to Phoe then, theres always something more difficult. You might think your area is tough to live in, but Phoe would consider his life safe as fuck living on your street. YOU should recognize that just because you think you're from some "hard" place, that it doesn't always mean you have the hardest road. Some guy in my tiny shit town I'm living in in Ireland got his face caved in by 6 dudes attacking him with hammers. This might not be the most dangerous place around, but I'm pretty sure that dude's family will tell you that you're lucky as fuck that you're sitting pretty in Baltimore while that dude's dead.

And why do you keep referencing "white"? I fucking hate black racists. What next? You're going to tell me of all the oppressing you had to deal with 100 years ago?

And did you ACTUALLY say that a bunch of Manchester drunken football hooligans wouldn't scare you? Lmfao. Have you actually ever been in a fight before?

@EtH I said originally that I didn't think I was hard… or lived in the hood. Can you read? And then you go act like we disagree, even though I just said it is relative and you can get your ass kicked anywhere. Thats called agreeing. All I'm saying is that of course it differs from place to place, but one thing remains relatively true…

You shouldn't flash money in public. If you don't agree then you're a dumbass. The internet is public, so… if you want to do that go for it! It just makes you more vulnerable to getting taken advantage of.

Also I'm not black… nor did I say I was. My point about being white is that white people (which I am technically) experience less prejudice on average than other minorities do in the world. If you want to be a bitch about all this go for it, but the way I see it is why would you come to a public forum talkin about getting such a great job and shit and then say its not fishing for compliments? What else is there to say…. oh yeah "PROBLEMS 100 YEARS AGO"!!!???! FUCK YOU! RACIAL INEQUALITY STILL EXISTS you racist fuck. What did you think Civil Rights just stopped happening after the 1960's?

Plus you're a racist EtH as proven by the racist comment "Fucking Jews" that you openly displayed on a tournament battle on this site, so I don't give a fuck about your opinion honestly. Plus this whole site is just one more attempt by a bunch of white people to steal a traditionally black form of music… go read some history. At least I don't deny my involvement in such problems.

Also, I could easily come up on the forum and talk about all the great shit that I think I accomplish, but thats sort of a lame thing to do.

Whoa... Maybe my friend you better read up a tad bit more becasue Hip Hop back in the days was not just for the black community it was also for the HISPANIC community as well as ANYONE living in the Ghetto.... Plus you do remember such groups as 3rd Base and Beastie Boys right? So this whole RAP IS BLACK bullshit is exactly that... bullshit... It was just WIDELY adopted by the black community. NOW, Hip Hop knows no color.. Your either skilled or not....

^^^ THis is RACISM ^^^ Country comes from blues dumbass EtH.

@InCizion You're totally right hispanics, particularly Puerto Ricans and Dominicans had a very large role in the roots of hip hop starting in the South Bronx… yeah I got ya, my bad for the omissions. And yes Jews and others were involved a bit later than that as well.

Yet, about 70% of recorded hip hop record sales are to white male teenagers? Look it up, its been published even in academic articles. I'm not saying it has to do with color, but it certainly has to do with Civil Rights an inequality between classes and races…

so wtf? How does it help to come up and brag about money when some people don't have enough?

I am saying the problem is unconscious rap that believes that race is not part of hip hop, because it is… DIRECTED at EtH-> You think you're hardcore because you listen to gangster rap? Some people live the gimmick that others fake… and from what I can tell, living it isn't easy…. and certainly not worth rapping about unless you're in it for money, so fuck gangster rap… its garbage being sold to garbage.

If you're into reading about this @InCizion then I also suggest the book , "Cant Stop Won't Stop." by Jeff Chang
