Hello,

I did a search on HipHop.com today. HipHop.com redirects to KanyeWest.com. What is you guys thoughts, did Kanye rent the domain name to promote his new album?

It's always funny to me, that the US teens prefer Kanye West to guys like Black Thought, Immortal technique or Ras Kass. Damn, if I was a young black teen hating white folks this song below would be me everyday wake-up song. Peace from Europe where teens still listen to Lowkey and Looptroop ;D

Young black Americans do not "hating white folks." Don't buy into the media BS.

Yeah, I agree taht the word "hate" is maybe too strong, depends on the person, environment etc. But what's even more "funny" is that the US killed about 1,5 - 2 million people in Vietnam (only about 40 years ago) and Vietnam belongs to the top countries that like the US the most. Stockholm syndrome (or China fear)? Not talking about Natives in the US. No US president officially apologized to them. It's sad when you think about it. So, I don't blame blacks, native Americans etc. of the hate toward me because I am white. Remember, the whites were responsible for enslaving these people and destroying their culture. This fact cannot be marginalized and it will take a Iot of time to become something trivial. I "hate" my own race (if there is such thing at all) for all the atrocities toward the Africans, native Americans, Aborigines, Asians etc. But maybe that's because I am from the Central/Eastern Europe and read too much Karl May in my childhood.

Props to this guy for telling the truth.

Do you think that something like this could be ever possible in the US?

I sold hiphoptv-com a few months back. Maybe I should have held it longer I did have the original producer of the back street boys inquire about purchasing it but I don't think he had any real interest.

Yes, they should buy both our names, cover the bases. I figure 50 cent, P Diddy, Jay-Z, Kanye West have some real money, this would be a nothing purchase to them. The .club guys found a way to contact 50, need to find some real contacts or a broker or something. Do some whois on their sites email them, follow on Twitter with site name, contact their sites about advertising, Hey I'm wondering about buying some advertising for a domain I want to sell, KingOfRap.com and then somebody can let them know. Put it out there on some hip hop forums.

Whatever you do with this domain, I just hope you don't sell it to some mainstream douchebags like Kayne West, 50 Cent or all those garbage wannabes you mentioned. This would be an insult to this domain as it is an insult to hiphop.com being related to Kayne West. GoldCarsAndHookers.com should redirect to Kayne West, that would fit much better...
