the n word is overrated. is there anyone here who HASN'T
used it at all in their life? both endings ER and GA mean
the same thing to me, "a word that you can't say in the bad
part of the city". that's about it.

I use it as a noun, adverb, adjective, and pronoun.

i replaced NIGGER with THE

so like

im going to nigger store
instead of
im going to the store

nigga please. its not just a word for black people anymore.
I'm not a racists so I call whoever a nigger regardless of
their stupid heritage. I dont give a fuck who your ancestors
are. You are a goddamn human being and thats how i'll treat
you.

Rap is one of the musical elements of hiphop. I hate all
this trying to seperate rap and hiphop like they are two
different forms of music.

and as for the word 'nigger' (however you decide to spell
it, it makes no difference)
the word comes from european origin. in some european
languages, negre means literally black (as in the colour)..
hence, when europeans encountered africans, they referred to
them as 'negroes'..
this eventually evolved into nigger.. which was a derogatory
term whites used against blacks from the time of slavery
onwards.
much later, black citizens began reappropriating the word,
in order to rob it of the power it once held over them.. to
subvert its meaning. the same way that much of the gay
population has reappropriated words like 'queer' and 'fag' -
using them to describe themselves so that homophobes cant
use the word against them any more.
this is an ongoing process though. it's all about context..
and im not sure that (in a lot of situations) we're at a
stage yet when anyone can use words like 'nigger'.. they may
have been reappropriated, but they havent lost all of their
historical meaning yet.
in my opinion.
