Activist Says Black People Should Have Never Let Eminem Rap

Bobby Burack, Outkick, December 26, 2023

Activist and social media influencer Dr. Umar Johnson says Eminem should be disqualified from the conversation of greatest rappers of all time.

It’s not that Eminem’s music isn’t worthy of G.O.A.T status, says Johnson. His music is.

However, Eminem is white. And Johnson argues that Eminem’s skin color devalues his worth as a rapper.

In fact, Dr. Johnson claims the black community should have never let Eminem into the world of hip-hop.

“No non-African can ever be the best of anything African. It’s an insult to the ancestors. It’s an insult to the race and it’s an insult to every black person.

“Eminem has all the privileges of a white male and all the privileges of being in the hip hop community, so we got to be careful about letting non-Africans into our community.”

There’s a noticeable trend emerging in which people openly resist the inclusion of white people in majority-black industries.

Johnson’s sentiment echoes that of former NBA player Gilbert Arenas, who earlier this month said white basketball players are trying to steal on “our league.”

Arenas added he’d like to see black players physically harm white players, as a result. Seriously.
