By the way I've never heard anyone, ever, claim that Egyptians were white. The closest to is to hear that Jesus was white. Jesus was Jewish, therefore not Caucasian.

In all honesty you are absolutely correct that most rap is pure crap, but I'd have no problem putting that label on any genre of music. I don't find anything amusing in watching some rocker bite the head of a bat off. I however won't generalize a genre of music based on what some artists might have done in the past.
Didn't really read everything that was said, but it is known that European explorers of the past have made many claims that Egyptians were white. This was also accepted by most people because at the time it was believed that blacks were simply not sophisticated enough to develop such advanced civilizations.
Also, I know many Jews who are in fact white, and I also have an uncle who is a black or African-American and practice the religion of Judaism. He was raised under the religion and was not a convert. I'd also be quick to put money down that most Jew's even in Israel cannot trace their family lineage in Israel back past 1948. Most would more than likely trace back to Europe, or other areas. Fact is, if I wanted to become a Jew I more than likely wouldn’t have a hard time. If I wanted to become white (unless I had Michael Jackson money) it would be next to impossible.
