Debatable.

Definition of racism
noun
[mass noun]
the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races:
Depends if you mean you just prefer white music, or that you just happen to mainly listen to white musicians and that is why you think they make better music. That's not racist.

"Black people are the most talented people in the world" hints at supremacy in my opinion, that's racism no?
