Los Angeles March 27 (IANS) Jack White a former member of The White Stripes says he is more of a fan of hip-hip than rock these days because it is more "dangerous".
"Rappers have the dangerous edge of music now - what I would consider the closest thing to that stuff you might not want your parents to know you re listening to " White told Orlando Sentinel.
The "Seven nation army" hitmaker recruited musicians that have worked with Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar on his new solo LP "Boarding House Reach".
The 43-year-old musician says that critics would have preferred him to release new music like The White Stripes 2002 album "Elephant" though.
White said: "I hear a lot of talk about people listening to this album saying You don t even actually hear a song till you get to Over and Over and Over . What they re really saying is I m not hearing a song that I want from Jack White until Over and Over and Over.
"They want me to write songs like I did on Elephant ( The White Stripes ) 2002 LP"
