Absolutely nothing. There is no racism in music whatsoever. Music isn't racism...it's the people that cause rascism. Just because a radio station doesn't play enough of one thing or more of one thing than it does another, doesn't mean anything...it's just the style of that radio station or whoever the dj is...it's not about racism. And whoever started a certain kind of music doesn't matter either...WE ARE ALL PEOPLE...ALL MADE OF FLESH AND BONE...AND SOME MUSCLE :) But besides who cares about black, white, red, yellow, green, or whatever color...that's great and all if you refer to ppl by that..but don't bring racism into it. We are all one and one of the same kind....HUMAN...and we all have feelings...so next time...take into consideration of the souls you might hurt.

Not white enough!
