Why do ppl associate POP with RHH..?

(No Offense, No Racism.| <-- Before iStart..

Many, many, many, many caucasians these days call POP

"Black Music"

Personally, POP to me is "White Music"

Whtz your OPINION.??

Update:

iHave first-hand knowledge of white ppl calling POP "Black Music". It was actually a music debate in speech class.

She Said:

"Well since Country and Rock is basically ours, then Pop and Rap is for black ppl."

Many biased white ppl will say tht Pop is Black music.

&&Where iStay, there's a lot of those..

Update 2:

REAL HipHop =

The musical ways of staying true to the cause..

The cause iSpeak of is the ORIGINAL ways of the beginnings of HipHop..

Basically, staying true to the meaning and essence of the music, and not exploiting and commercializing..

Update 3:

Umm..

iAsked for your opinion, not to jump all over my azz..

HopOffIt, or get smashed..

    pop is white music because they are the majority and whatever they like is popular, some rap can have pop sounds that appeal to a broader audience.

    No offense, no racism, just generalizing...

    You can't connect a genre of music and a race of people... each put out great music in all types of music. Rihanna is pop, I'd consider Alicia Keys pop, so fourth...

    Then again you'd also consider Hannah Montana and Jonas Brother ish "pop"...

    Source(s): I've never once heard a "caucasian" say pop was "Black Music", because the people I associate with don't label genres with music...maybe it's all in your head.
