Honestly I fully believe it, especially since black people who get into music are pushed towards Rap and Hip Hop by their labels being told "This is the only black music that will sell"
Women of all colors have similar things done with them, usually getting pushed into love songs.
https://youtu.be/uAq6RjSuwXQ - Korn actually made a music video with black celebrities as stand-ins for the band solely to send the message of "If we were black, this song couldn't exist because the industry is just that racist."
And I think it's common knowledge that the song "Love Song", was specifically in rebellion to the artist in question being told that women HAVE to do love songs.
