    1. Wallace Fard Muhammad says:

      I bet you can help it when you’re in the presence of black people.

      1. mixed says:

        i wouldn’t say it in front of any random person in general. but around friends i do, because we understand content and intent

        1. mixed says:

          i meant to say context not content

        2. Wallace Fard Muhammad says:

          White friends or black friends? If you say that around your black friends, there is no context and intent that allows you to say the N words… it will just be a case of your black friends being very confused.

            My black friends always tell me I’m the only one they can tolerate using the N word, I don’t do it because they allow me. Yes I sing along any rap song, using the N word, usually censor it around people I don’t know, but if it’s with my black friends I go with it. But it rarely happens.
            I’m sure you’ve seen a whitey sing along and get all quite, it’s awkward as fuck. Rather stand up and be a man about it, the intent is not to come off as an racist, but to enjoy the music to the fullest.

    RIGHT ON THE NOSE COMMON. WE ON COMMON GROUNDS.

  3. Noe/Edub says:

    Interesting discussion. Common hit it right on the head.

  4. D-Twice says:

    I completely understand both sides of the issue, but if you think about it when you have aritsts as big as Jay and Ye releasing a single called Niggas in Paris and they know a large portion of thier fanbase is white. How can they expect them to not think its ok for them to say it.

  5. MadShot says:

    In France we all laugh at each other with racist words, that’s part of the amusement of the bunch of kids we are.
    I dont know why you’re still shy about it.
    Laughing at it as immature kids is probably the most mature answer to this matter.
