Fat Joe
“N***a, bitch, hoe/some chicks is bitches, some chicks is hoes…Now who gonna tell me I can’t say ni***a?”
According to Nah Right, that’s a line from “Fugitive”, a track from Fat Joe’s upcoming album, Elephant In The Room.
The line addresses Joe’s constant usage of the word in his music.
What do you guys think about Joe (who is of Puerto Rican/Cuban descent) using the word?
Remember back when fellow Puerto Rican-American artist Jennifer Lopez said the word in the “Ain’t It Funny (Remix)”? There was an uproar about it – mainly because she’s seen as more of a “mainstream” artist – and she was widely condemned.
yoo for fat joe to say the n word is no disrespect to me because as a african american i feel that lati/hispainic ppl are basically light skin african americans
by standards there not but to many ppl they are so i dont see the problem you feel. Even ppl think its wrong that isnt qone stop noone from using it&+ the n word is not in refrence to african amercians it is refrenced to all races it is a ignorant person;; so ppl who disrespecting tha kidd need to calm down
no one should say the word. only ignorant trash has convinced themselves it is a term of endearment. LMAO silly azzes. it is a racist word.
