This White Girl Raps ‘Like A Real Sister’

Nekesa Mumbi Moody of the Associated Press profiled Sarai, the white female rapper trying to break the barrier, and spoke with hip hop mogul Damon Dash about her chances. Record companies “are always looking to break a white rapper. They’re always looking to break a white anything,” laughed Dash. “If somebody is white and they can rap, that means MTV, that means middle America.” But Sarai says she hopes people eventually look past her skin color and see just another rapper. “It’s always gonna be, ‘Yo, it’s a white girl’,” she said. “Eventually, they have to look past it.”
