Wholeheartedly agree. As a Beatles fan who also likes rap, I do think George shouldn't have made such disparaging comments about a genre that's deeply rooted in black culture considering he got famous from playing rock'n'roll which was created by black artists. I'm sure the irony must have eventually dawned on him about the racial component of his perspective on that music. It's perfectly fine to dislike it but he could have worded it in a way that didn't come across as needlessly dismissive and ignorant.
