Salute to Rah Digga for standing on her square. I grew up with plenty of Puerto Ricans and they NEVER got the pass from me. Same way that I never used the “ S “ word around them.
That's respect. And it's crazy to know that their folks were mad racist dissing us behind our backs just to witness their descendants say it to our face.
What’s the s word?
@@devantethedcguyreactstoo252 4 letter word, starts with an S and ends with a C
@@devantethedcguyreactstoo252 “ Sp*c”
@@devantethedcguyreactstoo252 Half of the word is a cleaning product lol
I’m Puerto Rican and pretty much said n-gga throughout my youth and young adulthood. As I got older I realized that not all black folks are into the street culture and don’t even like it when other black folks say the word. Now I just leave the sh-t out of my vocabulary.
Facts same forme at 57 especially when I've travel down south .we need to chill we still down with hip hop ..I Remember my black brother envited me down south .And he told chill with the N word and cursing lol..And I did
@@mikelugo8983 💯
Big up to you
Salute to you. I appreciate your words and the change in mentality as you matured.
whole heartedly agree with RAH, thank u. People love to be black when it suits them.
Exactly!
I’m Puerto Rican I personally don’t like saying it I think it’s stupid to say even more if you are black. But I just want to say not all latino are black for example Mexican those near Mexico but Puerto Rican or Dominican are black they don’t act black when it suits them there black period they just speak a different white man language than African Americans y’all speak English we speak Spanish which are two white mans language but we know from growing up we speak it in our music that we black. We sing about the beautiful black women and how you better respect our beautiful black women and that’s in most of are music and poetry

I been tired of him calling us that.
And you've haven't expressed until now?
Fat Joe has brought up and put food on the table for many black families. Wtf have you done for the culture
@@Joe-96X4Elol.
Rah digga I’m with you frfr I don’t rock with it either I don’t care how they grew up
Facts
100%
Well I'm dark skin darker than u but I'm not a nigga n I could say I am but I'm a black man stop callin our selves niggas but I'm dark n grew up jersey kid full puertorican but yea I dnt like wen the European lookin ones say it csuse they get treated diffrent from us dark charcoal black puertorican n dominicans hate being black atleast we embrace it
Samethang with me idc how they grew up if you ain’t black period you don’t get to say it period disappointed in lord jamar on this🤦🏾♂️💯💯💯
They speak with a forked tongue and will throw yo as up under the bus. At least in Chicago that’s the case. I speak and keep it moving. They’ll sta b yo as in the back, to whyTee. These ones out here dam near trying to be white. Blacks need to rally forces around each other. People like Joe got white privilege and try to be black when it’s convenient. F-em.
No passes here in Cali. The Latino community here happens to be Mexican and when they use that word around ME, they get checked instantly.
Same in the Chi for mexicans & ricans!
Different scenarios. Puerto Rican’s in NY been got that pass years ago. Not just Fat Joe
Big facts....
EXACTLY SAME FOR THE BOOT WE WILL NEVER ALLOW IT ITS MOSTLY NEW YORKERS THAT DID THIS AND ITS SAD
Same in Chicago. And where they’re at in New York in the prisons too these cats just making an excuse for not wanting to check him on that shit!
This is a great question. Joe has white skin, more European than African in my eyes.
plenty of actual blacks with joe's complexion. They are too, more European leaning? lol
Is his parents “black” or “white” I’ve never seen them before
@@ParrisFrance23 there are, but Joe ain’t black. There’s a picture floating around of him as a kid when he had hair, that ain’t African hair.
@@ParrisFrance23 yes they are. and we need to be clear about that. its clear af in the carribean and south america. thats a whole other group of people outside of BLACK people on the islands.
@@ParrisFrance23 Good question, although it was written for sarcasm...I've seen Blacks with Fat Joe's complexión, but there's tell tale signs like strong facial features or hair textures, but Fat Joe's features look pure caucasoid...
I agree with rah & godfrey. Joe is not black period. He's a white latino, Puerto Rican, cuban or whatever. & he over uses the word.
word.
Right. He uses that word more than most Black rappers...
Who cares
Godfrey needs not use it either hes nigerian his linage dont go back to American slavery his people didnt suffer under that word. Hes not a decendant of American Slavery. He barely gets a pass either!
@@nycblixky8530 Obviously this Godcast, since they brought it up....
I remember Grandmaster Caz saying PRs didn't rock with black folks back in the day. Charlie Chase was PR and his folks would always say "why you hanging with them morenos?" Caz said the PRs didn't start rocking with hip hop and breaking until several years after black folks had been on it. So it doesn't matter how much they are "like" you when ultimately, they do not identify as black and do not maneuver through life as black from start to finish. Gina Rodriguez is a perfect example of straddling that fence.
Also, notice how Latinos, regardless of national origin never talk about the issues Afro Latinos face. Whenever there is some latino/Latina pride photoshoot or lunch, it's always the white looking ones there. They might throw Rosario Dawson in the mix at most.
Crazy Legs said his fellow Ricans used to rag on him for hanging with blacks and participating in Hip Hop too. I've seen other OG Hip Hop Ricans say the same.
That is completely false
@@Righteous_way Nah, these are facts and we have receipts. It's past time for all of these Hip Hop myths to die.
I don't get when PR became a race. It's a friggin island , and not everyone has enough African ancestry where they consider themselves black. I'm not sure why it's assumed everyone there is black. Joe is clearly a mix of whichever native folks, and European. Our peoppe love to make excuses for people who don't look like us cause they " hood". Smh. Shame on these " pro-black" brothers.
True I remember him saying that
I watched Fat Joe on Drink Champs and I cringed everytime he used the word "Ninja". I.found myself cringing a lot.
Rightfully so
You don’t live in reality
Salute to Digga, ive def seen these shit myself.
she's the only one that REALLY kept it real. And fuck what Jamar says, i ain't no nigga.
@@jaybethatdude it’s jamar
@@nycblixky8530 thanks, my bad i was slippin.
Rah is totally being fair about this subject. I have dated some Spanish women, and some of their family didn't approve.. 🙄 but that's ok.. 🤷🏽♂️
Were any of them Puerto Rican
That aint saying much cause there will always be family that don't approve...even amongst Black people. For whatever reason; skin tone included.
@@OG.FactsMachine yep
It wasn’t black man, in general; it was you specifically. I dated those same chicks after you did and their families all liked me😂😂
Cool breeze spanish is not the same as latinos people from spain are white europeans thats different from dominicans, colombians and the other caribeans
I been asking this question for years.. Glad to see others feel the same. Nobody should use the word but if you aren't black, aren't a descendant of American slavery, aren't referred to as that or a victim of that word YOU SHOULDNT BE USING IT
Who gives a flying fuck about n word politics. No one should be saying it.
@@amnesia998 you don’t get to tell a black person what to say
@@amnesia998 You the guy who says it and gets knocked out.
True indeed. The real question is why Fat Joe could say "nigga" while while Black folks could only say "n-word"?
Nigga nigga ima be saying it I’m Mexican what’s good now
Stand on your square, Digga - compliments, sister, for having the courage to stay on code, courageous! (This coming from a black man raised in Chicago)…
I feel like the Puerto Rican’s in Chicago might be different than the ones from new york
@@nycblixky8530 They're the same

Peace to the Black Queen👑!
Indeed.
She is not the only true & living ..
Love you Rah Digga ‼️‼️‼️The Queens always holding us down ‼️‼️‼️‼️
I dont remember any Puerto Ricans working on any down south plantations. So no, they don't get to say it.
@@criminalminded6480 its called history class and homie. Slave rolls genealogy. I know you think you should be able and to say it, but you're wrong. Come to the Midwest where families migrated from Alabama and Mississippi. You can't say that here.
@@criminalminded6480 and my reply to all would be to co-op the pejorative for Puerto Ricans. Let’s do each other a solid
Jesus ignorance 🤦
Nah, they was working on plantations way further south than these states. On the islands instead of cotton it was sugar cane. The slave trade was far more dominant in the islands, black people all over puerto rico, dominican republic, Cuba. It's sad that this still ain't common knowledge. Puerto rican is not a race, simply a nationality like american or British or whatever.
Lol don’t you know their were sugar cane and tobacco plantations in Puerto Rico, Cuba, DR, Colombia etc. How do you think Santeria got to PR and Cuba, from Yoruba slaves from Nigeria
Rah is keeping it real...
I’m w Digga on this
I don’t like the word and I personally don’t use it. I’m from the Bronx and love Joe but agree with Rah 100%
It was really to much I'm Rican and felt like calling in .And Joe I know u comfortable but chill a little bit..Honestly even if a black brother would have kept saying ..It was in every sentence...
Real talk! I don't play that stuff, non-black people saying that word makes my blood boil
Ight my nigga relax
U have the right to b upset
I was born and raised in the Bronx and I'll tell you, when it comes to being black the majority want NO PART of being black even when it comes to their relatives... We should stop using that ignorant assed word In General and they shouldn't get a pass on it just because some of them were raised with us. A good portion of Hispanics overall are raised to praise blue eyes, white skin and blonde hair as the epitome of beauty and goals as far as how their children should look. We have to have standards in our community and more pride in ourselves before accepting others into it.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
facts resonates
I grew up in NYC from the early 70's and 80's. When I was growing up saying any iteration of the N word was bad. The consciousness was so high in NYC back then. You would get push back from everyone that heard you say it that included the old man or woman that migrated from the south, an old school black panther, 5%center, NOI, Jamaicans.......etc, the list goes on. When West coast music came to prominence they said the N word or profanity in every verse they wrote The southern rappers came right behind them pushing the same ignorant format and people from NYC became conformists for the first time that I knew of. NYC had never followed any trends except for the ones they set. They started using the N word, then they start embracing Bloods and Crips, then drill music and the rest is history. NYC fell from prominence and stopped receiving the respect they have gotten in the past.
Facts I agree Bronx Love 183 Rican love my black brother I've been backing off the N word..Is like deep inside I know people hate the N word Respect
I guess we would first have to admit that it's fukd up how we've embraced the word. It's like a group of ppl embracing calling themselves dog shit out of love and culture, but violently attacking another group for calling us dog shit. We're so comfortable in our dysfunctional behavior that we act it out and expose it under a spot light in Hip-Hop.
Joe is a white Puerto Rican not a BLACK Puerto Rican tho‼
He’s mestizo.
He’s definitely not a white Puerto Rican lol. Ricky Martin is a white Puerto Rican
Thank youuuuuuuuuuu he’s not Afro PR
Take a listen to my ALL FOR THE LOVE verse MUCH LOVE to my AFRO Latinos which Joe is NOT ✊🏿
@@kjo2130 he’s a white Puerto Rican that’s why he shaves his hair. Google him as a kid and tell me if he’s white or black

Better questions are why does he want to, and why does his peers allow it?
Also ja rule was supposed to stop the versuz as soon as joe started that disrespectful ish towards vite and mo and checked him
He grew up in the hood unlike you
I’m with Rah on this one
The fact that the word NEVER goes out of style proves to me that it isnt Hip Hop at all.
You would let her mess with you, with a strap on
The whole “I’m Dominican, I’m not black” is the same thing when jay z made “the story of OJ”. White Europeans do not see themselves as hillbillies and hicks. As goes for black Americans who don’t see themselves as “lower class” black people. I myself am black Dominican. It’s just when people think “Latino” they instantly think of white people. Some people can’t imagine that black people can be Latino. Unless you’re obviously black. But again when it’s so many mixed people in the US who can tell?
No they don't
Puerto Ricans are of African decent too. But some Puerto Ricans denounce us as one of them so i get why Rah Digga feel the way she feels
Nah homie...theyre not solely descended from any one population....thats why you have ones that denounce....thats a lil land of confusion
@@pharaohford1981 Ok you may be right im thinking more Dominicans. They really look black. Hair and everything. But the way i always saw it was PRs are one of us cause we all share the same struggle! Not neccesarily from the same descendant .
Y'all act like the Catholic Spanish 🇪🇸 didn't have slaves lol .
@@pharaohford1981 neither are you
Having a teeny weeny bit of African DNA doesn't make them Black tho, So what exactly are you babbling about 🤔
Like Dave Chappelle said "fat Joe big pun? Fine. Mark anthony rosie Perez? No" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rosie Perez is a Afro Latina who grew up in the hood… so did J-Lo.
Puerto Ricans would *never* give BLACK PEOPLE a pass to use a word they felt is derogatory
I’m from Chicago just like Godfrey and we went to the same High School. Growing up in a neighborhood and being apart of A Culture is different. Is Joe AFRO? Or is he Euro? Is he of mixed origins? He as Afro features but, he definitely doesn’t have strong Afro roots by looking at his family. We give people passes based of street code but the fact remains they ain’t us.
Especially here in Chicago I'm 290 and they don't like us nowhere near they're neighbors. I'm not Racist but I'm only for black and black only because it's been us against everyone 🤷🏿♂️
@Ish Mel The Incel Arab isn't a race. Black Arabs do exist
They call him joey cracker cause he's white
Damn new respect for digga
Why?
We gettin softer n softer…!this shit sad… bring back the 80’s
Black people need to look up the demographics of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷. Most of them aren't black.
No one should say it let's be real. People only said because of rap music which is the worst thing to ever come out of our community. It's no different than the word or phrase mother f.
True that. We used to say sucka MC's, crumb, bum, bamma, brother, homey(holmes), gangsta, tramp, loc, superman, dopefiend, etc.

@@chosenone3527 doubt it
As a guy who was born and raised in the South. It was very weird to me when I move to the West Coast and her Latin American people in LA and in Vegas saying the n word.

In texas mexicans and blacks live in the same hoods and grow up together, im from fort worth TX. We grew up being called niggas from our homeboys and shit
I’m with Lord Jamar on this one. Puerto Ricans live in the same exact communities as blacks and if Puerto Ricans can’t say the n-word, Africans and Caribbeans can’t say it either because they don’t want to be associated with black Americans last time I checked. They have their own racist words for us too, so Africans and Caribbeans get no pass either.
@@chrisdacrisis4670 if Puerto Rican’s can’t say it, then neither can Bobby nor Kodak. Skin tone doesn’t mean shit in this situation, buddy.
@@chrisdacrisis4670 Same goes for Puerto Ricans so wtf is your point?? My point clearly went over your head.
@@swanm3ta850 The vast majority of Puerto Ricans don't identify with black people in general.
Ya'll gave Big Pun a pass back in the day so why bring up Joe?
He was a Latin King too and I thought they hate black dudes.The Bloods in New York is their rival gang on the streets and in prison
Can we just STOP using that damn horrible word✊🏾
Black Women always protect us and call shit out for what it really is while we diminish it and refer to them as being sensitive. If you grow up in NYC you know the dynamics of the black and Latino relationship. And you know the love is not equally reciprocated but they want to use and participate in every facet of our culture. Let’s be real and not play dumb!
Digga on point like a Harpoon!
I didn’t even bother listening: I just hit subscribe lol.
Studies have shown that the racial ancestry mixture of the average Puerto Rican (regardless of racial self-identity) is about 64% European, 21% African, and 15% Native Taino, with European ancestry strongest on the west side of the island and West African ancestry strongest on the east side, and consistent levels of Taino ancestry throughout the island....with that being said. I believe Puerto Ricans use the word "Nigga" as do black folks. Like a term of endearment like it or not. I am 100% Puerto Rican and I have family white have white skin who is 100% PR and some that are super dark skin that are 100% PR. I have never heard a Puerto Rican say "Nigga" in a racist way.
We have to start understanding that its a culture thing more than a color thing...its easier to divide when you categorize by color...but its a mindset...
Nah... wasn't no Puerto Ricans in slavery with my ancestors and shit. Yall stop playing. If we gone include their derogatory words as an exchange, it may fly
@@americannegro5631 check history some of us did get drop off in pr but all of them are not of African decent
I have...Plus that Fat Joe song, "F*ck Them Other Ni@@as" is up for debate...
😅😅🤣🤣🤣 but yet my DNA shows 48% African 33% European and 19 Indian 🤦🤦🤦🤦 look up loiza Puerto Rico before you google stuff
Growing up in the northeast, we grew up alongside Puerto Ricans and Dominicans so we all said the word to each other. As much as you all are calling Joe white, there's no white person out there that would claim Puerto Ricans as their own. We all got treated the same by society and white people in my neighborhood so we all said it.
Yes and no. Light skinned PRs did not get treated the same as black people. It’s a sensitive subject, I think at his age out of respect for black people he should at least hold back a little using it. He says it more than anybody.
@@williemazehaze8673 I mean he grew up in the Bronx surrounded by black ppl who have been saying it with him and letting him say it for about 40 years. It's too late to tell him he can't say it anymore. In the northeast there isn't a huge divide between Hispanic and black ppl. We grow up in the same project buildings and go to the same schools.
@@javonrob1 well then start using pejorative for Puerto Rican then. See how far you’re allowed to use it. We need to stop allowing it. Period
@@lailaq5738 it's not the same, Puerto Ricans don't call each other the "s-word" in casual conversation like we do. I know dudes in my neighborhood who said it were the same dudes who fought alongside me, got robbed alongside me, and who's mother's fed me. If you didn't grow up in certain areas you wouldn't get it. Anybody who was in our circles and wasn't white or Asian was our nigga.
@javon rob northeast? That’s more of a NY thing, which I can understand because y’all live so close to each other. New Jersey is more segregated, at least it use to be.
I used to say dat word but when I got older I stopped luv from brooknam
Speak on it Digga!!!!
She probably has more white in her than anything else
Thanks Rah. Y'all got ALLLL these exceptions of who can say it. Interesting that it's the black men saying it's ok. Smfh gtfoh
Big up digga for not making excuses for non original people saying nigga
What about bizzy bone? Big pun? B real? The list goes one haha
Bizzy bone mother believe is black.
Im with Rah alllll the way. It went from ricans, to dominicans, to mexicans....we just let anybody say it. Black ppl will never win because we let ourselves be disrespected all around
I remember when I was little, I always thought Fat Joe was a lightskinned Black dude.
Gotta love Digga 🥰
She's a fraud
Lol so I guess I can't say ngga since I didn't grow up in the hood, especially in NYC 😂
💯 rah!!
IDGAF what y'all talking about. Fat Joe saying it isn't acceptable. E.V.E.R.
But once thy get to 96st or 86st south bound they can play the other side of fence if they want to … Puerto Rican’s 🇵🇷 alway respected Black- Americans because we taught them when they can to the states, especially the older generation that remember. Cubans 🇨🇺 might be the next ones in line.
In NYC, P.R.'s, Dominicans and African Americans were usually in the same boat, if you will. Many Dominicans and some Puerto Ricans are clearly physiologically of African descent as the island of the Dominican Republic (and Haiti) was the very first island in the Caribbean to where the Spanish brought their African slaves. The P.R. population in NYC were very abundant and usually lived in the same financially lower middle and low class areas and projects and whenever I heard any Puerto Rican or Dominican my age say it, it never bothered me. The ones who had issue with black folks were the parents and grandparents of many of those kids I grew up with.
Yalleggis better know who your allies and enemies are and not get em confused because you have both. Stop being myopic and stop throwing out the baby with the bath water. Don't let igis lead yall into division and confusion. Stay focused.
Factualities my G! These days they got Them agendas mixing in the schemes thick
Correct. Stop egging these celebrities. Whether Fat Joe says it or not, I don't really see him fighting for no cause...
Diamond was the reason Joe started rapping. That's his brother so he probably the wrong man to ask.
I always wondered why they got a pass to say the word.
Fat joe gets to say the n-word because there isn’t a dude hard enough to stop him.
Let him try that anywhere but new york
@@isaiahedwards6586 it’s not that nobody hard enough to stop him trust there’s plenty of people tougher than fat joe it just nobody cares
@@isaiahedwards6586 plus he performed shows all across the world and no one cared
@@nyckidd6004 as a black man I care
Black people give way too many races grace. See if those same Spanish people in NYC let any black person call their Spanish friends a derogatory Spanish term, even if that black person hangs with all Spanish people. Let’s see how “we all the same” works out then lol
That’s exactly what I’m saying! Start calling them the pejorative for Puerto Ricans!
Well tell them that, because if you ask a Hispanic person what their race is, they say I’m Spanish or Puerto Rican or Dominican or Mexico which are nationalities, but they never call them that
I always looked at it as two different words then I started travelling outside of Miami and realized to a lot of black folk it's the same thing. I try as much as I can not to say it but because of Miami and Hip-Hop it's like that shit's embedded in me so I understand where Joe is coming from. Especially somebody who's really been in the trenches like Joe. I might not say it deliberately when conversing with people as much but I will still say it if I'm rapping along to a track.
It's a bit complex. In New York the Hispanic culture influence is mainly coming from Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic. Many of these people have African in their blood, so I think that's why many of them identify with Black American culture. The problem now is that connection has been extended to the entire Latino community and now many feel like they have a pass when it comes to the N-word.
lmao go read a book dude !
Conquistadors are white Hispanics only the dark and brown Hispanics are possibly our ppl from blood mixing. Joe's a Conquistador Puerto Rican.
Rah spittin 📠 real talk
No she's not
I'm Puerto Rican descent and did not grow up in the Bronx, lower east side or east Harlem, we spoke Spanish in the house, never identified with black people, we were not black, I would never use the N word, did not grow up with black people, so he can't say all Puerto Ricans acted or talked black, later in life I had black friends but I don't look black and didn't try to act like them and they were cool with that and I was never mistaken for being black or called the N word by anyone.
I think out respect Latinos ( P.R.s, Dominicans etc . ) should not say it. Joe is a little too extra with it sometimes. There’s a time & place for that.
I got a Puerto Rican homeboy from high school whose from New York, that's my nigga.
I'm a puerto rican myself, an afro Latina to be exact and there are racists within my family. One of the main reasons why I was outcasted as a child was because of the color of my skin. So I learned very early the struggles with colorism and racism. Do I use the word N1ggah, absolutely, it's in my vocabulary's DNA. Would I feel some type of way if I heard a white Latino use the word ? Hell yeah !!! But in Joe's case, I agree with Lord Jamar. He gets a pass because he's one of us at heart.
Peace ✨🙏✨
I always used the rule that if one latina grandparent and parents are dark-skinned I'll let it slide. But if the whole family light Bright's hell no
Mee too I'm puertorican n darkersome .y white European lookin family didnt like me till I got older but my black puertorican even hated themselves. But do u got Instagram or some shyt I just like our white ones say they over use it its cringey like motha fucka n I'm darker but I dnt think we should be ignorant saying what need do we have for it any wway
So Sean king is “one of us at heart” and so is Racheal dozial. Do they also get a pass bc they’re “one of us a heart”
This Afro Latino y’all say is such an American thing
It's no longer in my vocabulary! They don't get a pass because they can flip flop when it's convenient! Ain't no 50/50 on the hip hop creation neither!
NEVER SAT WELL WITH ME
maybe its just me, but on that "Raising Kanaan" show, it seems like that puerto rican character Famous uses the N-Word more than the black characters...
He really does too
*RICANS & BROTHAS BOND DIFFERENT IN NY!*

Born and raised in the bronx New York and i can tell you Puerto Ricans or hispanics in general racist toward blacks people in their hispanic spaces until they want to ride black people coattails when it comes to trends then they use their black heritage as a excuse. What's crazy is a Puerto Rican will be racist with braids in their hair, Jordan's on their feet and use black slang. All hispanics switch up and assimilate depending on spaces, but they will gravitate towards whites everytime until whites give them a wake-up call about they should be deported out the country or called a illegal alien.

I’ve been to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and I freakin loved it. I went to the slave museum in San Juan. Will brings tears to your eyes. But I believe Joe knows his African side fo sho.
Godfrey was on point about what he said. Puerto Ricans and Dominicans dress, walk, talk. eat, etc like us African Americans but the minute you tell them their "BLACK" they deny it. And the sad part is that sometimes they're darker in skin color, wavy hair, nose, etc.... In my opinion pick a side and stay with that side. Don't be black in the street or at work and then switch to PR or DR when you're with your family or around people who dislike us African Americans. Much respect to Rah Digga, she was like no it's not accepted for them to say the "N" word period. And I understand Lord Jamar saying it's because they grow up with us 24/7 as the reason they say the "N" word. It's a sensitive subject and always be sensitive to us African Americans listening and accepting non African Americans using the "N" word. I live in Southern California and I sometimes hear the Mexican Americans using the "N" word as if their black and I just look at them like "REALLY"!!! Enjoy your weekend!!!
P.R.s in NYC were our brothers in grime from fighting prejudice and poverty to getting rights, benefits and paper. So they've been getting it just as bad as us, to a certain degree, in the latter 20th century.
I'm sure it's different elsewhere in places like Boston, Chicago and for brothers and sisters down south, especially out west having to deal with Mexicans in particular. But here in NYC, not, speaking for the rest of NY...but NYC has always had a favorable special relationship with P.R.s. more than any other ethnic culture beside Jamaicans.
Man Please! You have Puerto Ricans in New York that are racist towards African americans. Ain't no damn coalition. I don't know what the hell you talking about. You got Puerto Ricans in New York that are anti African American. African American struggles is way worse than Puerto Rican struggles
Gtfo with that. As bad as us?? Are you mad? So a couple of PR were cool I'm the 80s so all PR get to call me that word? You just caping. Got a thing for PR women or something.
@@vicfm1574 and there’s African Americans that don’t like Puerto Rican’s either
@@vicfm1574 If you notice my words, I speak in PAST TENSE.
I have not lived in NYC since 1997, I've been living in western NY since then. My time spent here has shown that Hispanics aren't as socially open compared to the NYC I grew up with.
With that said, my experience living with Hispanics was not perfect when it came to the adults. Even when their kids were my best friends/playmates and such. When they get to talking in Spanish in my presence and you notice their tone and body language...you know somethings up. But when asking the kids what that adult said and their reply is "Man, don't even worry about that. He/She is just buggin'", you never forget that.
You could say it was generational, maybe, but with more Hispanics from other countries entering the communities, you can see there was a steady influx of more of those with uneasy/hostile feelings towards Blacks.
@Ish Mel The Incel Then the "culture" must be on their part to hate. What culture have we Black Americans had here in the U.S. except to constantly fight for the right to be free?
And any gains made in those efforts have been an opening for others across the diaspora to come this country.
Funny how that's worked out, huh?!
I as a PR grew up saying that word because I grew up around blacks that called me Nigguh all my life… eventually I stopped saying it cause I grew outta that BS… but idk why some folks complain so much about it, if it’s that bad, stop calling non blacks N.
I'm from Nwk NJ I've been called Nga all my life... we even had three white families that were adopted by the hood... they never left and they was called Ngz too... we even spell it like that ...Blacks n Boricuas been in the trenches out here in all types of shit standing g shoulder to shoulder since for ever....
It's how the community accepts you on a case by case basis. It don't matter if Joe ihas white skin or not .. we come in all shades.
Yea NYC tri state area has a different more unified dynamic. We should all stop using it though. Its time for growth now
@@TheGreatOne93 Word! It was never really an issue till it seems the agendas are starting to scheme in the mix. I agree I do music myself and I've become more mindful of its usage for respect to elders.
Great Question. I'm ready to see people Dance around it though.
Godfrey just be talking ! He still lame over a year later hahaha
I hate the word. Always have. We should stop saying and using words that’s degrading to our people. Period.
Truth be told my Puerto Rican Brothers get the pass I rocks with them Never ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished
I understand there's a different dynamic in NYC compared to other places. We should all stop using it though, been there done that. Let's reform our speech
Rah Digga must hate Cypress Hill 😂😂😂😂😂
This is bs, with this logic Eminem should be able to say.....!!!!! Exactly foh
Mmmnah.. foh
Nah he whites
We need to stop owning up the word “nigga” until then, it’s always gonna grind your gears!
Lord Jamal hit the nail on the head! The atmosphere in NYC is different than everywhere else regarding this particular subject.
The word is bad in general even folks I know hate to say it, but because it's in our vocabulary it is used more as a companionship.
Only difference is their language... same DNA as other Caribbean black folk..
I like Godfrey and Jamar but they ain't ready for the reset of the culture. We takin it all back. No fence straddling. Digga know wassup. No blackness, No passes.
Joe has stated publicly that he is a black Latino, unless u can prove otherwise, this conversation is pointless
@@Nemo-Nobody nah its not about being close or integrated. its about being black or not. many latinos are black. some are not, and those that arent, shouldnt say the word. Fat Joe says he is a BLACK latino of AFRICAN descent.
@@Nemo-Nobody whats his genealogy that’s the deciding factor cause I’m from Detroit and Eminem can’t say the word nor any middle eastern regardless if they grew up around us
