me too, and a lot of it is lush's fault. but it's also the inundation of white rappers, and mediocre rappers in general. this also has to do with anxiety. If wack white rappers look bad, you and lush get lumped with them when people use heuristics (mental shortcuts like stereotypes)...often "the streets" or people whose endorsement we're seeking do this. so if you distance yourself and hate on other white rappers, you ally yourself with "the streets" or non whites. just a thought. I'll break down the psychology of battle rapping later, but I'll give you a clue what a good part of it has to do with...I already mentioned it before.
