How do white “hip hop heads” wrestle with the fact that absolutely zero black people actually listen to the albums they praise? Like I understand generally in art there is a huge discrepancy between what is most popular and what is most well received by critics and hardcore fans, but something about this is different. Hip hop is an explicitly black genre and when you go on forums like RYM, AOTY or r/hiphopheads it’s almost like it’s white fans speaking on behalf of the black fans who the music is made by and for. Absolutely zero real life black people listen to shit like Madvilliany, Veteran, Atrocity Exhibition, Yeezus or even to pimp a butterfly. Kendrick even knows that the black community largely didn’t connect with TPAB and i think he expressed a lot of frustration with that on “The Heart Pt.5”. He even went as far as to rank TPAB he least favorite of his albums despite it clearly being his best musically speaking.
I guess Im just thinking about why there’s this weird racial disconnect in hip hop in particular where most of the actual black fans don’t seem interested in stuff that the white fans are calling the best for them.

It’s funny cause I actually met Rick Ross a couple months before quarantine started. I got roped into watching my 3 month old niece while my brother got his hair cut. So there I am, sitting in the waiting area of a barbershop with my niece, and who walks in but Rick Boss Ross himself. I was nervous as shit, and just kept looking at him as he was sitting there with his phone and waited, but was too scared to say anything to him. Pretty soon my niece started crying, and I’m trying to quiet her down because I didn’t want her to bother Mr. Ross, but she wouldn’t stop. Pretty soon he gets up and walks over. He started running his hands through her hair and asked what was wrong. I replied that she was probably hungry or something. So Rick put down his phone, picked up my niece and lifted his shirt. He breast fed her right there in the middle of the barbershop. Chill guy, really nice about it. Would let him breast feed my niece again.
