Neither is acceptable, but there is a difference between using the unacceptable term to describe the music and directly calling a specific human being of colour a ########, and if you didn't direct it specifically at someone, you probably don't owe them a direct apology.

He said N*** music. Which means that the music is made by/enjoyed by people he calls N***s. And it was being played by a black guy.
If I see you driving a particular car and I say only XXXs drive that car, the I’m calling you XXX.
So it’s a meaningless distinction. As I’ve said elsewhere, my suspicion is that it was very purposefully directed at Aliu.
