Skream's whiter than white. He's like Daz. Can't you tell by all the fox hunting he does on the 5 acres of land his dad owns...

Hmmm yeah i can definitely see what you mean. No white person could ever make such rowdy sick tunes as Skream. I mean look at the likes of the Prodigy, Cluekid, Chase & Status..
White people just cant cut it against our chocolate brethryn.

Same here. Definately a distinction.
There is a difference between getting it right some of the time and getting it right ALL the time. That's the point, you can never be sure about anyone just by their voice.
Have you ever seen white carribean, jamaican or african people? As in fully white descendent that have grown up in these places? Going by their voice you would get it totally wrong.
I used to work with a white guy who was brought up in Barbados. To hear his voice, you would never in a million years been able to tell he was white. One of the nicest people I have ever met to boot. Hold tight Kurt, original badman.

I'm not sure you two are quite getting it. By the same reasoning it's like saying anybody with an English accent automatically sounds white
. It's deeper than that. There are subtleties in tone and so-forth that can distinquish a person's colour (MOST of the time), regardless of background and nationality.

So if background/nationality/accent aren't a factor then there must be an actual physical measurable difference between how a black person and a white person makes a sound. As in their voice box, throat, mouth, tongue etc...
Pretty sure that isn't the case and I'm pretty sure you are just talking right out of your bum hole.

I don't know how it fucking works do I? All I know is Skream sounds white and Benga sounds black and they were both brought up in Croydon weren't they?
Mabye there's a sub-consious decision in the way you shape your own voice depending on whether you are black or white.....
Now I really am talking out of my bum hole

Been to their gigs seperately but on Jan 2 they're in Sindee together. I'll comment afterwards, altho the Wife Beater doesn't say much and Benga is a fuckin' joyous motormouth.
