No idea. Just remember hearing on the radio that he and a
friend had been shot in their van after a gig one night in
London.

Can't believe I'm laughing at a drive by shooting, but no
one was hurt... so I guess it's ok (ish).

Westwood began on pirate radio doing hip hop in the early
80's and has been championing rap ever since. He has been a
part of the hiphop scene for longer than most of you fools
have been alive. He has got a lot of US artists their UK
breaks. It's a pity that because he is white you allow your
racist views to run riot. PmR UK is shit though.

It's nothing to do with him being white. I can't stand his
kind of macho posturing - whatever the skin colour.
I understand that he championned a lot of UK hiphop in his
early days, but he's grown lazy with success. And he's
probably the worst interviewer I've ever heard. All he does
is talk about himself and what he's achieved - when really
he ought to be asking far more talented people about their
music.
There's nothing wrong with being humble about your
acheivements. John Peel was - and he championned hip hop
too. In fact, he was in a position to bring it to the
attention of the masses way before Westwood was.

Don't even bother trying to play the race card - because it
doesn't apply here - not for me anyway. Westwood is the son
of a CofE Vicar. So yes, he may have grown up in a rougher
part of the city - a lot of people have. But it's not to do
with how he speaks, or the fact that he's a white DJ playing
Rap and Hip Hop... it's what comes out of his mouth. The
arrogant, clichéd tripe that sounds just as stupid, whether
you're white, black - or any other race you care to
mention.

I love the variety of accents, dialects and spoken
vernacular's in English. I think it's fascinating and very
often beautiful - but I know an idiot when I hear one.

The son of a vicar? So fucking what? Does your dad have to
be a crack dealing nigger before you accept them as
credible? He has assimilated a lot of the US hiphop style
into what he says and does, and I agree sometimes it makes
him look a bit foolish but at the end of the day he has been
in hiphop since the beginning and is quite well respected
outside of the I'll go onto an internet message board and
bad mouth the easy white target circles. He acts the way
many in hip hop act, he just stands out and gets targeted
because of the colour of his skin...which despite your
protestations about it having nothing to do with the fact he
is white is exactly the reason.

It's not the reason. So fuck you for trying to tell me what
my own reasons are. I think I should know. You're the one
that brought race into this as an issue. Not me.

I don't have the slightest problem with him being a vicars
son either. I don't really think it makes him less credible.
Music is not about style or fashion (incidentally something
that the kind of hip hop championned by Westwood these days
ignores more than almost any other genre).

As I said before. What I have a problem with is his
self-indulgent bleating about how great he is. His appalling
interview technique. And the clichéd 'bad boy' hip hop
ramblings that he comes out with.

I happened to see an ad with a voiceover by Westwood. It
struck me how stupid he sounds sometimes. I posted a message
about it on a whim. I didn't expect his fucking fan club to
start accusing me of being a racist. Christ almighty.

It obviously is an issue for you. Also hiphop is about the
culture which includes style and fashion, rap is just a
component of hiphop. The self indulgent bleating is no
worse than most other commercially prominent people in
hiphop. He was singled out because he was the white son of
a vicar, simple as that. I'm not his fan club I just don't
like racists.

All I meant was - I thought his father would have been a
better role model.
Instead he's turned out like he has.

It's pointless discussing this with you because whatever I
say you're just going to call me a racist. Which I'm not. I
know why I said what I said, and I stand by it. You clearly
aren't prepared to listen to anyone's opinion but your own,
but if you actually knew anything about me, my beliefs, and
the company I keep - instead of basing your opinion of me on
a flippant remark I made in this thread, getting on your
soap-box and proclaiming anyone who doesn't like what they
see/hear of Westwood as a racist, you'll know that there's
not a racist bone in my body.

My intention was never to imply you were some sort of racist
monster, however you would probably rape children given half
a chance.
