Ibo People In American Rap Music Industry by fstranger3(m): 2:47am On Mar 12, 2011
Why is there a dearth of talented rappers of Ebo extraction in the world famous American Rap scene. So far it seems that only Yoruba people ( Wale, Chammilloniare and his brother, and Dbanj to name just a few) are breaking into mainstream American rap, our Ibo brothers have so far been left behind unfortunately.


Could it be that, like Nigeria did to Biafrans/Ibos during/with the Civil war, and like Forbes recently did with the release of their latest world's richest list, American Rap, and by extension, the American people, has singled out the great Ibo race  for wanton discrimination?

What can be done to correct this anomaly.

Re: Ibo People In American Rap Music Industry by Justcash(m): 3:13am On Mar 12, 2011
Can't you stay a day without being pinched to look into Igbo affairs? Ok, Yorubas are rapping. Good and so what? What is the business of Igbos if Yorubas rap more?
fstranger3, you need some help. believe me, one day you will run insane and the only thing you'll be muttering will be,"I can't stop being envious of Igbos".

Anyway, just to show you how shallow your research is, check out a certain boy called Chiddy bang. There are many more Igbos like him, if you need.

Is this a new strategy or what?

He said he his from Lagos, Nigeria and from his name Seriki, it is obvious he is Yoruba. What else do you want, dumbo?

Effed up-stranger3, go and get a life. Your envy for Igbos is eating you up. What else can warrant your devotion to Igbo issues. Always seeking for ways to prove that Yorubas are better than Igbos. Funny enough, it is those that are better that makes the less noise. Ode.

Obviously, you don't have it together, if not then there is no reason to focus on shopping mall rappers when Igbos are already in the main stream US Hollywood Industry.

Re: Ibo People In American Rap Music Industry by Justcash(m): 4:14am On Mar 12, 2011
@Fstranger3, going by your use of "Ebo" and "Ibo" to refer to Igbos, one can as well use "Yo oru ebo" or "Yoruebo" to refer to your ethnicity, afterall that is the historical source of the name of your ethnic group.

I am not your mother you know nor am I your middle-school teacher. I am not here to make you feel good. As a matter of fact, I am here for just one reason, to make you, and your ilk, feel really really bad about yourself, if possible, up to the point of suicidal.

I dont care about tribes or race,i am a proud igbo dude who also happens to be black first and had experienced the racism associated of been black, when a lazy fellow who dont have any other things to keep his mind busy but circles around tribes,it makes me wonder at the voidness of such mind.
