Fat Joe on Saying “Nigga”
Complex Magazine: As a Puerto Rican rapper, have you ever been criticized for using the N Word?
No absolutely not. Because blacks and Latinos anywhere you go in any hood, any ghetto, we’re right beside each other, and with each other all the time especially in New York City. They’ve been calling me “that nigga” my whole life. I go to Africa, and the Africans say “what’s up Fat Joe my nigga-ah?” So they don’t have a problem with it. It’s a term of endearment.
If yall know anyone from Africa, ask them how they take the word “nigga’?
