I've been wondering this for a while now, and i think that word carries no racial intonations in the hip hop industry anymore .black Rappers use it as a term of endearment now.

Yes. R.A The Rugged Man used it.

RSAMAN: Yes. R.A The Rugged Man used it.

i know. but mainstream rappers like Em, macklemore, yelawolf. would be skinned by the media if they used it on a track. to me this is reverse racism

ok

i wouldn't blame them. If the usage of nigga by white rappers can be acknowledged as adding artistic value to rap songs, some might start abusing the word. Think of how many rappers are already bleeping the poetry in the form of rap, by glorifying bling, bling, and rapping about womanliness, and saying the word NIGGA every 2seconds in ther songs.

the listening community is already dumbed down, thats why 2chainz is considered good. me still thinks evri1 should say nigga if they want. i hear a lot of blacks call whites cracker yet there is no outcry.
