"NIGGA" interview on fat joe - CHULO

C: As a Puerto Rican rapper, have you ever been criticized for using the N Word?

FJ: No absolutely not. Because blacks and Latinos anywhere you go in any hood, any ghetto, we’re right beside each other, and with each other all the time especially in New York City. They’ve been calling me “that nigga” my whole life. I go to Africa, and the Africans say “what’s up Fat Joe my nigga-ah?” So they don’t have a problem with it. It’s a term of endearment.

C: What about your response to people who don’t think like you or someone like Khaled who’s a Palestinian-American should be using the word?

FJ: I guess Khaled is a sand-nigga. He’s a sand-nigga. (Laughs) Khaled that nigga, did you ask the 36 black rappers that are on his album with him if they have a problem with it?



so...........thoughts on this????

i'd like to say something intelligent and uplifting...but im going to leave it at this.....

if its accepted to say NIGGA to ME..because its NORMAL.....then accept a slap...in the face....from ME....because that may be my NORM...
