\nJack Harlow is one of the most popular rapp<\/a>ers in the game<\/a> today, as shown by his \u201cIndustry Baby\u201d collaboration with Lil Nas X currently sitting atop the Billboard Hot 100. However, Harlow\u2019s ascent to the top hasn\u2019t been without criticism from people taking him at face value.<\/p>\n

During a recent interview with British GQ<\/em><\/a>, the Louisville, Kentucky native addressed his status as a white rapper, revealing he actively avoids rapping about his skin color in order to avoid being seen as a \u201cnovelty\u201d rapper like so many caucasian MCs before him.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think what has worked for me is that my music has never been about the fact that I am white,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t try to lean into the, \u2018Hey, I\u2019m the white boy.\u2019 I try not to make it a novelty. I rap from the heart, rather than trying to do a white version of the art form.\u201d<\/p>\n
