Not gonna argue that, but white rappers can sound more casual in a way that allows for fun. Asher Roth might be softer than baby ****, but "I Love College" is still some chill ass bong music.

Pretty sure "sunarefa" is Russian slang for Eurasians.

They claim it's a slur for arabs, but I've never heard it and the only search results in google are referencing the song.

I actually liked a fair bit of Asher's work. I dig Mac Miller, El-P, Pouya, and Apathy too and they all sound pretty white. I think the music just has to have some sort of substance to it other than just being rap music that appeals to white people because it's made by other white people i.e Hoodie Allen or G-Eazy.

Might just be a local slur from their Russian white trash town. I don't imagine that these dudes are particularly metropolitan. Heard about them from Lords of Chaos BTW. That book loves to rep every racist band it can dredge up.

I used to be more about Def Jux and Rhymesayers, but now a lot of those groups are pretty lame to me, but I still get enjoyment out of **** like Cage El-P, Brother Ali, and Atmosphere (though less from the last two). And don't forget that Aesop Rock is a cracker from Def Jux, even if I'm not the biggest fan.

Already posted this, but it's seriously one of my favorite rap songs ever, and since we have a lot of the same tastes then I'll just post it again for your benefit.

About Dr. Octopus becoming the new Spider-Man. It was a thing for a couple years and it was awesome.

Last Emperor - Secret Wars is the best thing I've ever heard from this sub-genre.. This guy is pretty cool, but idk enough about any of this stuff to fully appreciate it.
