Let's start by acknowledging that both Vanilla Ice and Eminem, each in his own way, made it (even more) difficult for white rappers. But I'll gladly address the topic, especially when the artist himself makes the first step. Even yours truly, who can be said to be harping on the subject, is perfectly able to review an album completely color-blind. But rap music is at a point where they don't have to be brought up every single time. When you read a review of a rap record (particularly one on the text-only ), do you sometimes wonder if the rapper in question is white? Have you read write-ups that you feel failed to spell out the obvious, that the rapper is white? Or that you thought irrelevantly pointed out that the rapper is white? Does it occur that you're curious whether a reviewer who covers rap is white or not? These are legitimate questions.
