Asher Roth's comment was not a big deal. Or was it?

I blogged about this too. I think its only a big deal to people who don't listen to hip-hop and never use that language. Other than that, the hip-hip industry is filled with racism, sexism, and homophobia. Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, and Plies are 3 I can think of off top who have dissed someone lyrically by calling them a "cracker". Not to mention how many degrading songs there are towards women and how many homophobic comments are made. If anyone who likes hip hop took offense to Asher Roth's comment, they are living a life of contradiction. You can't support bitches, hoes, fags, and crackers but then go and get offended when someone white says nappy headed hoe. Doesn't make sense.
The Huston was born in Cleveland Ohio on December 6, 1988. At the young age of 17 He was forced to leave his parents house due to dissimilar views. He began working a job in downtown Cleveland where he met Mikel Mahoney also known as Jus Mic, they both began talking about music and Hip-Hop primarily. As they grew as friends Jus Mic saw a passion in The Huston and later asked him to help with promoting him as an artist with Goodshyt Entertainment. Now a few years later The Huston has grown into a complete "Hip-Hop Addict" as he calls himself. He has spent many days, weeks, and months promoting real Hip-Hop with a meaning. He is also very passionate for artists with a purpose! He know is working hard at getting many underground artists the exposure and respect they deserve. Artists like Jus Mic, ProphtheProblem, Twizted Mind, Kayo Alcatraz, Drastic, Zup(producer), Cy Harp, Soul Kryziz, Grind Time Central, and Tha Profit. He is one of the newest members Of Prhymal Rage also where he plans on doing album reviews and to help promote the great talent that Prhymal Rage has. With The Huston it is very evident that he doesn't stand for waterdowned Hip-Hop and is trying to help find a balance in Cleveland and across the entire Hip-Hop scene!
