I’m a white dude. I grew up in the Springdale West in West Long Beach (if you know about it then you know) grew up around 100 Crips, never got put on, never was asked to. Never picked up the lingo, matter of fact they used to call me Surfer loWC (again if you know then you know) and I’ve never ever been on a surfboard before. I’ve seen them being used before, but never surfed a day in my life. They called me that because I (still to this day) was the “dude” or “bro” or “rad” guy with all the good weed. I was one of the 3 white people who actually lived there (also miss Tina in court D, who was as white as they come but she was with the business for suuure) idk I think I just wanted to comment because it is very true that people become products of their environment, obviously. But really it does boil down to character traits. I grew up with KG loWC, Bulldog, Tray Dawg, Slim 80 and Sully from the Co80st, Co80ast Boy Gutta and that’s just to name a few, and the only thing I can honestly say I truly adopted was their style of dress (I mean the early/mid/late 80s and 90s style dude I’m literally wearing a flannel shirt buttoned ALL the way up and some dickies starched and ironed so stiff you’d be able to stand them up in a corner by themselves. Black bandanna with a Suicidal hat AND the Locs on. This is NOT a fallacy) but other than that, I’m still the surfer guy from the crip neighborhood that never got put on the set or walked around saying the “N” word to fit in. I was always just me and they never had an issue with it. It may have even been a bit refreshing to them. I’m still over there from time to time.

I mean, I’m white, and Peggy’s one of my favorite rappers. I don’t hate myself for being white or anything, and I do find the white racism a bit off-putting. I’m not here to get deep into a racial discussion, but this would be different if he was talking about any other race. I know there’s the whole “the oppressors can’t be oppressed” argument is out there, but racism is still racism. I’m not sure of his entire opinion on white people, or his experiences with them, but while I don’t exactly enjoy that part of his music, I can overlook it to a degree. The way I see it so far is that he doesn’t really care much about the opinion of others, and he’s just making great music, while trying to piss people off. And I think the people that he is pissing off are the people that he’s talking about.

[@cram2979]

Says the whitey

[@differentbutsimilar7893]

I know for years he did the 'cracker' thing to make a point about how white people are comfortable with the n-word being everywhere in lyrics. Flip the slur over and suddenly people are uncomfortable. I freakin laughed, cause every time I bring up that I feel like I'm saying the n-word when I blast music that has it publicly, I catch some weird counters. Some of those same people would not let JPEG's lyrics go and I had a great time. I don't think he hates white people on a person-by-person basis. Maybe whiteness as a whole, he do be extremely mad about white people stuff. But I'm almost certain that he genuinely doesn't care when he meets fans that are white, and cares more that they're fans. At least, that's my only real experience with the guy. I saw him go up in front of a solid 1000 mostly white faces and have the time of his life working his ass off, and then spend some time talking with people. He brings full energy to every show, I swear. And he himself has said the reason he does that is because people deserve his full effort. I don't think you can be out there putting the heart he does into shows he himself knows are gonna be majority white, and genuinely have hatred for those people. That's the one thing I can say. In spite of all of the resentment in his lyrics, peggy cares about his audience and I think that says a lot about where the hatred comes from. I mean, he's from the SOUTH south... real deal sundown towns where he spent most of his time growing up. It's a... different kinda white from like, your standard suburban middle-class liberal white, though he's gone after them too. I think some of it is just him being 'mad at the time' in the sense that he disses things like metal as a whole in his lyrics, only to sample Animals as Leaders just a couple years later.

[@differentbutsimilar7893]

EDIT/RAMBLE: I also just wanna add that he's a guy who spent the first half of his career calling out white people that definitely are strongly associated with white culture, that a lot of white people give a pass for pretty despicable things, including but not limited to blatant racism. I think that he also used the shots at whiteness peppered between as something of a filter, a litmus. As in, if you can't shake that off, none of what he has to say is really gonna be for you. It has a bit of that black metal spirit, where the music itself is designed to put off certain kinds of people, or at least the idea of that sort of person. He never really brought it out for NO reason. There were always specific white people, or certain hypocrisies in white-dominated areas of culture centered between them. To me it's him being like "I'm going to say some mean things about some white people, and if you can't handle that, here's your clue to bail." I'm mixed on it - flat definition, racism is racism. But I do think that context matters. One white guy to another, whiteness is a dumb construct with tons of baggage that nobody needs in their personal identity. I am basically only a white guy because being a white guy has implications based on imaginary lines people draw by origin and features, which have gone on to shape all of our living conditions in ways that end up actually differentiating us. In my day to day, I don't think of who I am by my skin color, and don't feel any special solidarity towards other white people. If anything, I am more prejudiced towards different kinds of white people than I am anyone else. This isn't colorblindness - we are NOT all the same because we don't have the same material realities and social experiences influencing us, but being white still isn't about skin color. Ask the Irish, or the Italians... or the many white-skinned European ethnic groups that have historically been classed as different races and placed on the exact same oppressive hierarchies by people the same color as them. A fundamental criticism of racism is that the standard never stays in place. The moment parity is reached, it narrows again because the whole dynamic requires us/them imbalances. Ergo, if there are no more different colored people left to place on the scale, we will find another line to draw. Because I think like this, I don't get bothered when people attack whiteness. There are so many dumb stereotypes about it, but personally I don't even want it as an identity. It's the most nonsensical racial group to have the reach it does in the world. Again, I am "white" because I live in a world where there are white people, and then there is everyone else. It is and has always been what power structures and people running them needed them to be. JPEGMAFIA can say this or that about it, but he can never change the definition of what whiteness is and means. I don't think there even is a singular white culture anyway - everything is too spread out and recombined for the label to mean anything. I mean, even American black culture can't be treated like a monolith in spite of black people making up just an 1/8th of the population. But in their case, I understand the 'pocket' nature of it - it's a product of generations of oppression, and especially of segregation times when a lot of black people had to work really hard just to have nothin to live on and very little opportunity, all basically corralled together... meaning they only had each other and as a result have distinct yet widely shared values and cultural ideas/practices. We don't really have that as white people. The thing that people call our culture is a nebulous and scattered thing. Diogenes said it best... "I am not Athenian or Greek, but a citizen of the world." He was making a separate point, but that's basically what white people are in terms of culture. It's not only that different ethnic groups of light-skinned people developed discreet cultures without always having a lot of contact. Due to our ancestor's practices, we spread our own culture over others as much as we either stole or organically absorbed from others. It is impossible to pinpoint. Trying to *really* attack it is akin to punching a river to stop its flow. Whereas when you go after black American culture, you are going after a thing that was largely born of, and carried a race of people through nitty-gritty oppression that is recent enough that it still has a lot of impact. That's why the "anti-white racism" isn't the same in my book. He can be as mad as he wants about it. In my book it just amounts to venting, which I think is fair for him to do as a black guy who's had a lot of experience with racism. Everybody's gonna have their own feelings about it. Personally I think it's harmless, but I lean more utilitarian than deontological/principled in my morals. I don't need to have a flat definition of racism. I'd rather judge actions by harm done and the most realistic assessment of potential harm I can muster. I'll put it this way: you aren't going to find anyone being attacked by mobs of angry black jpegmafia fans all hopped up on anti-white lyrics. Anti-white sentiments will not be making waves in any local communities as a result of lyrics like his. I don't think the same could be said about a white rapper inciting blatant anti-black racism with slur-drenched lyrics. When white people get all jazzed up about race and start saying slurs, there is often a progressive escalation of hate crimes. It's a numbers game, partially. A lot more kindling for that fire on the white side and the black side. Logistics, head counts, resources, and media reach. Anti-white racism doesn't have the ability to spread like that here, because we are a huge majority. Same thing that makes most of the fans white, declaws the racist sentiments in some of the lyrics. I think mostly I appreciate him saying cracker so much, because for once I can actually say the lyrics. Beyond that, I barely notice anymore. We could have all kinds of compelling theoretical and philosophical conversations about what racism against white people is and means in a country like ours, but feet on the ground... is it hurting anyone? I think this is more a case of music being an outlet for darker feelings than something built to encourage racial violence. Peggy writes for catharsis, exorcising demons. There's also a lot of self-awareness undercutting it. I think he knows that he says things that are wrong and messed-up, that he has flaws and suffers for it. IDK, maybe he's just building up to fillin Madison Square just to turn around and maximize his casualties. But I feel like on the internet we get so caught in the reeds of rationale that we forget real-world implications. The real implications with slurs and hate speech between white and black racism are very different. I think it's hard to argue that the real-world implications of jpegmafia lyrics are high... unless your home is twitter. In which case it will mess your world up lol. Otherwise, none of the things in the lyrics are coming to your home. If anything, thinking some crazy, hateful black guy is gonna bust down your door and shoot you is classic racism. White-flight pearl-clutching. I could go on with how he kind of likes to draw that stuff out of people by basically playing the boogeyman that lives in a lot of racist people's minds. Not an accusation towards you btw.

​@@differentbutsimilar7893 no cap this gotta be one of the best takes of the nuances of the social climate between white racism and black racism. I have always felt these things but could never articulate them the way you have. Hats off to you sir.

[@pank3245]

​@@differentbutsimilar7893I'm in the weird limbo of being white but also being the son of the immigrants, and like Jpeg, grew up in the poorer parts of Brooklyn. Whenever I hear the word cracker what comes to my mind are those spoiled white brats from Long Island who think Jamaica Queens is the ghetto because it has black people.

[@knevil753]

not sure why race as part of a fanbase for artists should matter anyways. artists dont go on interviews stating they are just for these races... except.

[@justahuman935]

This whole conversation is weird to me man, a mf consuming your music is someone that resonates with the art you made, race has nothing to do with that period. Especially when you're someone artistically crazy enough to play audio of a cop begging for their life while getting shot to death. I fuck with jpeg but the entire idea or this conversation bothers me

[@Z4NKA1]

race obviously does. stop playing stupid

Jpeg makes some amazing music, NoName too, seperate art from the artist though, always.

Oloff's music helps me to process my feelings about 9/11.

[@j1d7s]

I am white AND German 😅 and I love his music even though I only get about 10% of where the samples come from. I just like non-mainstream music, the more original and surprising it is, the better. Death Grips was my favourite band in the genre before JPEGMAFIA. No one should tell you what to like or play. I saw a video with Lenny where he told that to a black kid who liked metal. I am not very satisfied with the way Peggy answers the question if he is bothered by having white people in the audience. Rather than saying, well they pay, I would have hoped for a message like Lenny's.

[@michallebel3236]

I don't get the notion of black artists bitching about racism then sobbing when they discover white people listen to them. Music brings people together, shouldn't it be encouraged? Or you are all about being angry without wanting anything to change?

[@EJFF.]

White kids screaming nigga does nothing for us lmfao how tf does these kids buying Lil Durk and Drake albums change anything? I agree there's nothing to do about the demographic of your fanbase and ,imo, is just something to be expected in a country where the majority of ppl are white but that reasoning is naive as fuck

[@valentinaroldan7764]

[@alwaysknow3356]

I have snow white skin and im an Irish person and we love hip hop and have done for years....Peggy has played here before, and the crowd goes completely mad. I know they do everywhere but artists know that they really have to win an audience in Ireland and they do work extra extra hard to prove themselves. I've seen this live with Prince also, theres an extra upping his game he had here, compared to elsewhere. i think the artists see that we have a deep fiery passion in us which comes from our Celtic heritage, anger, gift with words and love for great music. In Ireland our heritage is real different to most white folks as we are an oppressed people. We cant change that. We were colonised and although we are cool today with the Brits now and a generous loving people, appalling shit happened to us, years ago including a genocide in the 1800s during our famine. We are angry about it and have generational trauma which still damages us today. So with Irish living in Ireland, we are not your prototypical privileged white Americans (not to diss them either). So we do identify with disenfranchisement, dissaffected youth etc. In our own way, we got nothing on Peggy's experience and have the utmost respect for that. And love Peggy and i dont mind if he doesnt quite get some of his fans 'white' experience.

[@fettywapsmissingeye]

I’m an Irish fella and hearing someone say “Peggy” in this context is the funniest shit ever 💀 sounds like a pensioner you’d meet at Friday night bingo

[@alwaysknow3356]

@@fettywapsmissingeye Genius comment! Agree!

[@fettywapsmissingeye]

@@alwaysknow3356 thanks lad 😂 otherwise I must say you propose a great point. I think painting white skinned people with the same brush is laughable; it’s like likening the experiences of an African American to an African or something of that magnitude. Dynamics around the world are extremely different and I think seeing the typical white person as the better off is a very one dimensional viewpoint. This country has had so many troubles and I’m glad we’ve gotten to where we are today; although flawed, we’re far past the juxtapositions and oppression we’ve faced. I think if people understand white is a very limited word to use for such a limited race of people spanning so many different experiences, cultures and social classes, there’d be way more understanding in the world as a whole; and that goes for other races too. Across the world, the fixed variable in the experiment of life is love, and resilience built up over losses and wins. As an Irishman I feel a lot of the dissatisfaction expressed in hip hop, I think African American experience and ours have a lot of interconnecting struggles. Anyways I went off on a bit of a ramble but to come to a conclusion, we’re all a lot closer than we may seem, and painting a whole group of people as the same, on both sides only holds us back from being the best we can be. And you’re dead right! We bring it at the concerts! I was at Wu tang and Nas and I was surrounded by men who grew up with the respective acts, but they acted like stones 😂. I belted out every lyric 😂 you’re there for a reason, and we only have so much time to carelessly enjoy these things. A 3arena bouncer actually approached me after the concert and noticing I was singing every lyric, and she told me the after parties Nas and Wu would be at afterwards if I wanted to come. I’d never been more excited, but unbeknownst to me she’d assumed I was old enough 😂 I’m only 14 and there’s no way I’m getting into a Dublin club 😂 she was astonished after I told her and she got a picture with me and called me “a legend” 😂 gas girl all together. Kendrick was insane too. Would love to go to Peggy if he comes again. Hopefully will be old enough by then 😂

[@alwaysknow3356]

@@fettywapsmissingeye Great post! Clearly you belie your age with a great taste beyond your years...I missed the Nas gig (i have a good excuse though - was at PULP in St Annes Park), however I did attend Kendrick and he was AMAZING!!! Love him so much, the absolute GOAT.
