To be honest most mainstream rappers have a "gimmick" or certain image/personality they portray. It's only because Em was the 1st succesful white rapper, everyone will compare other white MC's to him. To be honest, every rapper has a personality, just the mainstream artists have a more fabricated image/personality. For white guys, Vanila Ice did a shitload of damage to their credibility so to some, it may sound corny

Mac Miller is fucking horrible...I just had to say that, sorry.

I don't think there's many white rappers besides Em that I like too. I don't know why but they don't appeal to me. And I'm not even looking at their skin, it's the actual music. I don't like Yelawolf, Asher Roth, Paul Wall etc...the only white rappers I like are Em and Copywrite.

I forgot about Bubba, he's fairly mainstream.
All those other dudes are pretty underground (yet well known). White guys seem to have no problem succeeding in the underground.

I hate R.A. the Rugged Man & Bubba Sparx.

I know the Diabolic & Vinnie Paz but haven't heard their stuff.

:o

I could understand the others, but no love for R.A.? His multies are sick, even though he tends to spit drivel sometimes.

Yeah I don't get the hatred, I'm not a fan personally but I can admire his work.
I love Aesop and he might as well be speaking Swahili in half his songs.
