4:22Now PlayingSlaine addresses Lord Jamar's VladTV interview where he says white rappers are guests in the house of Hip-Hop, and explains that while he respects the sentiment, he doesn't fully agree. The Boston rapper says that while he holds Brand Nubian at a high caliber, he thinks Jamar's statement was "bigoted."
The "99 Bottles" rapper remarks that all races have contributed to both the good and bad parts of Hip-Hop, including the current "bastardization" of the culture. He also speaks about Macklemore's influence, and while he says he's not a fan, he respects the Seattle emcee's independent hustle.
Macklemore's pro-gay stance also came up, which Slaine believes is the primary factor that propelled him into mainstream success. He also questions the sincerity of the "Thrift Store" rapper's message, and wonders if he's doing it just to "capitalize off of hot button issues."
