This is part of your problem then. Stop doing that. Stop labeling people based on racial stereotypes you assume must apply. You then might not be so surprised at a white rapper, or a black country singer, or whatever else doesn't fit your pre-assumed stereotypes. Seriously. The problem is with you and the need to apply racial labels to everything. Some of us don't do that.
This is you making an argument that part of the problem is making racial labels. I countered your argument to say that we as society, make labels all of the time and questioned how specific labels made you feel. So which one is it? Is your argument above irrelevant or is my COUNTER-argument relevant?
You know you are wrong because I showed you 3 different ways how you were wrong, yet you only replied to 2. Why? Because, like I said, you're only replying to stuff that you think you can counter.
That's why I'm not answering any of your questions till you answer mine. At this point, if you're not responding to my questions in the post in question, I'm not even going to waste my time reading all your posts, because you're just wasting my time. It's a shame, because I have responses that I want to share, but if you're not going to even take the time to address them, then you're wasting my time.

Let's do this. If you believe so much that my statements are irrelevant, why don't you answer them and explain how they are irrelevant beyond simply saying "they're irrelevant"... you know, kind of like how debates operate?
You keep claiming that they are irrelevant, but this was a two fold condition. You, answering them first, then explaining how they are irrelevant, not just saying that they are irrelevant.
You're like that person who swears up and down that "they got it", but keeps ******** up, but wont listen to any suggestions, only to keep ******** up. Then, you constantly wonder why you keep ******** up.
I'm telling you that you are confused, that's why you think it's irrelevant. You don't understand my point nor the situation, that's why you think it's racist and that's why you think it's irrelevant. I'm telling you if you spend HALF as much time answering my questions as you do telling me that they are irrelevant, then you would understand. Instead, you keep saying "I got it", when its blatant from your responses that you don't got it.
Your statements of understanding of my argument are wrong You're missing key elements which make them seem the way you are portraying them. Rather if its from my bad explaining or your bad interpretation, either way, it's wrong and I'm trying to show you, but you're not wanting to listen.
You can't possibly spend this much time and effort arguing about something irrelevant to the argument to avoid arguing about something "irrelevant" about the argument.
OBVIOUSLY you just don't want to answer the questions, else you wouldn't be arguing with me right now about something that IS irrelevant to the argument.
