They
>can call a black man
>a nigger and then call
>another black man a king
>in the next sentence.
>You have to use the
>context when dealing with hip-hop.
> You cant just say,
>"EWwwww. He used the word
>fag. Lets flame him." Hip-hop
>artists can use the word
>fag in a million different
>ways, just like hip-hop artists
>can use the word nigger
>in a million ways.
>Thats hip-hop. Derogatory words can
>be used in hip-hop.
>Derogatory words have their meanings
>changed, reversed, and thrown back
>at the original user in
>hip-hop. Example:"Yo, you're a fag
>for killing homosexuals/my flow is
>deep and intellectual/words get flipped
>and herbs get ripped" Sure
>the word fag in the
>above line still has some
>'roots' in homosexuality, but the
>meaning is starting to be
>reversed. Its starting to
>be thrown back at straight
>males who hurt homosexuals. The
>sting is starting to be
>taken away. The same with
>the word nigger. "Yo, my
>nigga is a king/with all
>the knowledge he brings/with a
>medal of honor/ that outshines
>the bling-bling" Sure the word
>nigga still has roots in
>slavery, but the meaning is
>being flipped and thrown back
>in the face of the
>racists. If your gonna
>give flack for the word
>fag in hip-hop, then you're
>gonna have to speak about
>the word nigga too.
>If not, then your argument
>is unfinished. My position is,
>it all depends on the
>context. "Kill all homosexuals,
>those fags/Kill those queens too/fucking
>drags" is a lot different
>from "got all that bling-bling
>he likes to brag/snatch you
>greed gotten ring/fuckin fag."
>"I hate black niggers/when we
>see 'em/we pullin our triggers"
>is different from "Cherryview cats/those
>my niggas/they get dough/but never
>brag about figgas(slang for figures)"
