YG is currently on a promo tour for his latest album (4Real 4 Real), and during his stop at Hot 97 radio yesterday, he got talking about his recent performance at Dusse Palooza. When he said they were a lot of black people at the event, one of the radio show hosts, Ebro asked him if he wasn't used to performing in front of black people, and he said...
"I mean like, not like that. Yea, cos like, I don't know like all the shows be like...you know, like when you do your tour and sh*t, you put your tickets up, on the Internet, the black people is not the first ones to go buy it. So, it's like, they gone wait till the last minute, on some black sh*t...that's just what we do."
I get his point. It could also be because there are actually more white people in America, and Hip Hop music is the number selling music genre in America right now. Even with rap albums, white people have always had the highest percentage of hip hop music consumers.
