Did Nappy Roots Open the Door for Kanye?

In our recent interview with Nappy Roots, group member Buffallo Stille had a very interesting response when asked about their influence on college rappers

DGB: Do you feel like Nappy Roots opened the door for frat rap?

B. Stille: I never heard that term before, until just now. Frat rap?

DGB: That’s what they called Mac Miller, Asher Roth…..

B. Stille: I don’t think so, but I do think, and this is my opinion, but I thought we opened the door for Kanye. The way he felt, the way he came out with College Dropout. I think that probably opened the door for frat rap.
