Top 10 Rap Tracks that white people love...

[quickdodge®]

I figured it would be a list of 10 50 Cent tracks, but alas, this is more interesting:

10. Positive K - I Got A Man
White Girls in particular love this song because it gives them a chance to playfully reject a male suitor’s advances on the dance floor before blowing him at the end of the night. It’s empowering.

9. Digital Underground - The Humpty Dance
Humpty Hump was rap music’s greatest alter ego and actually a good MC but all White People know (and love) him for is "I like my oatmeal lumpy," and "Burger King bathroom."

8. Biz Markie - Just A Friend
Oh my god do White People love this song. Particularly frat boys. Why? I don’t know. Unlike most of his peers on this list, the Biz is a guy long deep in the hip hop scene with lots of cred, yet to White People he’ll only ever be that fat funny-looking black guy with the wig who sings bad.

7. Young MC - Bust A Move
I believe there is a law that requires this song be played at every Rock n’ Bowl. Like that the police shut down the bowling alley if it doesn’t comply.

6. Rob Base and DJ Easy Rock - It Takes Two
Knowing the words up to "I get stupid, I mean outrageous" is standard and unremarkable. Knowing everything up through the hook means you’ll be frenching at 80s Night.

5. Naughty By Nature - Hip Hop Hooray
Before he was shooting porn and marrying/divorcing Pepa (a near miss on this list herself), Treach was teaching White People the world over how to wave their arms from side to side above their heads while singing nursery rhymes.

4. Tag Team - Whoomp (There It Is)
Man, what was the ****ing story about this song and the other one that came out at exactly the same time by, I believe, 95 South called "Whoot There It Is?" Somebody ****ed somebody else over big time there. The weird thing about this song - ubiquitous and beloved by Wisconsin grandmothers that it is - is that its lyrics contain the words "mother****ing," "*****," "****," and references to smoking dank. Crazy! I remember watching The Box video network (where I learned everything I know about Black People) and seeing Tag Team’s follow-ups to this one: "Whoomp (Si Lo Es)" and "Addam’s Family Whoomp." I’m not kidding.

3. Vanilla Ice - Ice Ice Baby
This one song on the list that White People pretend to only like ironically. Don’t be fooled: deep down White People still think Ice is 110% gangsta. I remember back in the day "battling" another sixth grader at the ice skating rink in who could rap the first verse of this song the fastest. The kid was Asian, so I won.

2. House of Pain - Jump Around
White People will never be completely comfortable with Black Music so anytime they’re given the opportunity to like a song by one of their own race they go ****ing overboard (see this record and all five thousand Eminem songs). If you’ve ever seen Black People comedy, you’ll be familiar with the notion that White People have no rhythm and can’t dance. This is true. That’s why they will embrace with both honky arms any song that makes it OK for them to not actually dance during it or that tells them exactly what to do and when to do it. If you go to a club and this ****ing song comes on all the White People will literally jump around. I ****ing promise you.

1. Sir Mix-A-Lot - Baby Got Back
Go to a karaoke bar - get the song list - check the rap section - if there’s only one song, this is the song - every ****ing time, this is the song. This, like a number of the other raps songs White People love, features prominently sexual themes addressed in a humorous fashion. I think it’s White People’s inherent prudish squareness that makes them get all giddy about "naughty" rapper songs.

Good list, but you missed a few I would consider on the Top 10.

Notorious, Puff Daddy, Mase- Mo' Money Mo' Problems (**** "Diddy, should have never changed from "Puff Daddy")

Bone Thugs 'n Harmony - Crossroads (I defy you to play this at a party and not have ever white person try to sing it)

Anything by Run DMC

I could list a lot more recent stuff that I don't care for that much, but that people go crazy for at various college parties, but they haven't really been established as classic white people rap songs yet. :)

[Smittie61984]

I like Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Miles Davis, John Lee Hooker, BB King, etc. Don't know many white people that listen to that stuff. Am I gangster??? Then again I don't know many black people who listen to that stuff.

To me I feel Rap died when you no longer heard scratching. It'd be like taking the Guitar out of Heavy Metal to me.

What about the Beastie Boys. Does that mean they are appreciated in the black rap community?

Funny post though. And I like the Vanilla Ice one. Everyone I know denies ever liking it. But if you start to hear that beat (Or even Under Pressure) you can see everyone's head start to nod.

Anything by Run DMC

I disagree with this. The only song by them I think the majority of white folks may know would be Walk This Way. You go back into the mid to early 80's, half the white population would not a thing about rap. This was before rap was brought out to a more accepting stance. Back when rap was better because it wasn't in the public eye. Later, QD.

Other than "Walk this Way" and "It's Tricky" I agree that most white people (myslef included) couldn't name their songs, but we still definitely recognize them, and still definitely like them (college age kids at least). Your classic hip hop can't hide from us:ninja:

Oh yeah, Sugarhill Gang - "Rapper's Delight" too.
