Rap artists and Ni****? I saw a clip on the news tonight where two rap artists were talking about the N word being taken out of songs. I guess people are sick of hearing the double standard with the word, and these guys said they won't stop using it completely unless the music industry as a whole stops using it. Why do blacks call each other by the word, but freak out if a white person says it? Don't give the women & bitches example, because many women won't beat the **** out of you if you say it, and the same goes for gays and the word fag. Why can't we all just stop using the N word in movies, songs, and popular culture? I think it's offensive no matter who it comes from, I know I'm not black, but I still don't like hearing it.
