What does the black rap/hip-hop scene think of white rap/hip-hop fans?

Upon hearing that a few of my friends have taken an interest in learning the "Soulja Boy" dance, I wondered what the black rap/hip-hop fan community would think of this. I have heard things like "whitey can't dance" and it appears that there is a general consideration of white rap/hip-hop fans, or whites that try to emulate the "ghetto" lifestyle as absurd and foolish. Rap music and hip-hop music are just genres, but I am specifically looking for the attitude of the scene. Would a white person be able to walk into a club with more blacks than whites without being kicked out of laughed at? Would a white person be able to dance the "Soulja Boy" dance without being disrespected? I don't know if whites are disrespected for this or not, and I am curious to hear what the followers of the hip-hop scene have to say.

These days I think allot of people are over the whole black/white thing its just getting ridiculous... but you are entitled to your opinion.





I think its rather disgusting that people stare at me when I go out with my boyfriend cause he is black.... but oh well.





Some people are just ignorant.
Reply:I can tell when someone is a true fan of rap/hip hop, as oppose to trying to fit in or show off. If they can tell the difference between Rap and Hip Hop (and there is a difference), then I’m cool with them, whether they're African-American or not. Report It

Reply:I think this would depend on which region of the country you are in. Some areas may be more accepting of the white hip hop followers than others. Here in Chicago, from what I see, it's accepted for the most part. However I am sure there are some areas where it is not as acceptable.
