It’s funny how some people say we need to get a grip or it’s okay for black people to say but noone else. None of these individuals have the right dictate what’s acceptable for an entire group of people. Jay-Z, Naz, Kanye, Russell Simmons, Ice-T don’t speak for me. I don’t care what records they’ve made and how much money they have because I didn’t contribute to it. If them and anyone else are comfortable being niggas then that’s on them. Like I said before, when black people use, it’s a reflection of their ignorance and lack of social consciousness. Aspire to rise above it, as a human race we have bigger things ahead of us.

There’s no such thing as a pass. That’s some BS made up by ignorant, slaveminded, sympathizing, black folks. It’s offensive when white people use it and it’s even more offensive when black people use because their ignorance. The blacks that accepted that term were and are slaves. These artists ain’t nothing but glorified slaves. They’re contribute nothing valuable to socioeconomic progress of black people. The just make us look like coons and goons.

“So who decides who gets a ‘pass’?”- Nas, Dream,Uncle Rush?..No I don’t think so. When the Obamas, Mandelas,Kings, Martins or the Emmett Till families give a pass. I might think about it..thought about and the answer is no gets a pass..

Hey Nas. I hope your Nigga Gwenith Paltrow buys your new album and helps you get out your tax debt. I see why Kelis left that green dress behind. She wanted to totally forget you. Now, I want you to Guess who’s not buying your album….ME!

Some of you need to get a damn grip. Its the NAME OF A SONG. Its not like she was throwing it out just any old way. She quoted the name of a song. Stop being babies and get back on your grind instead of worrying about a damn tweet. SMH

Wow. Nas gives Gwyneth Paltrow a pass. Big deal. I agree with Samira – Just who decides who gets a ‘pass’?

Come on, it’s the name of the song! White folks can listen to the song, but can’t say the title cuz that’s racist? That’s ridiculous. I really understand that the N-word is offensive. But you must understand the confusion amongst the white crowd, when the word is given a postitiv connotation within the black crowd. You’ve taken the word and made it your own, and thats dope. I’m a white guy and was called “my n***a” by a black guy a few weeks ago, and it made my night.

So white people can buy and support the album, but they can’t say or type the name of the biggest single? And who decides who gets a pass? She can obviously say it in front of Jay,Ye,Nas,Russ,and Dream…but not in front of Qtip. That’s why the word should just be buried and forgotten or be universally offensive. Considering the level of the consequences as it relates to the freeness of using the word just doesn’t add up fairly…which ironicly is pretty much what the word relates to, unfairness/inequality. It’s almost like white people use it to piss off black people, and black people use it in a different way to piss off white people…yet neither way does anything to help with race issues while each side blames the other over a word. It’s 2012, we have bigger fish to fry than stirring up outrage over tweeting the name of a hit single.

Whoever is closest to that person. When you know someone, you know their intentions. They know her and know whether she’s being malicious or not. The fact that they are defending her goes to show that they truly believe her tweet was totally harmless. I’m sure if they didn’t know who she was as a person they wouldn’t be standing up for her like this.

Find a REAL issue to get mad over…after all it IS the name of the song. I’m mad at Jay and Ye for naming it that and it has nothing to do with the song. The VAST majority of people who listen to rap are white. So when every other word is the N-word what do you expect? It’s sad that this story even got legs. I’ve heard more about this too much…NIGGAS can be so petty…find a real cause.

The fact that rappers and we as black people were able to DE SENSITIZE THE WORD BY USING IT OURSELF doesnt give WANNABES the right to use the word!!! I AINT WIT IT, what they need to do is stop making excuses and be real friends and explain to her WHAT THE WORD IS, AND STOP WORRYING BOUT THE WARM FUZZIES THEY GET WHEN SHE INVITES THEM TO HANG OUT ON THE BOAT IN THE HAMPTONS AND KEEP IT REAL WITH HER, SHE AINT GOT NO RIGHT TO USE THAT FREELY!!!IVE HAD TO DO IT SEVERAL TIMES MYSELF AND GUESS WHAT??? THEY STILL LOVE ME!!

Listen if you have a group of femaie friends i hear them call each other bithces and hos all the time, but if another female “OUTSIDE THE GROUP” calls one of them a bitch or hoe, it will be a confrontation or a fight, point being “IF YOU AINT IN THE GROUP….DONT GET TO FAMILIAR…OR BE PREPARED TO PAY THE CONSEQUENCES!!…unless you run wit a bunch of grey poupon ass niggas thats gonna give you a pass!!!! THAT BITCH AINT IN THE GROUP!!!PERIOD!!!
