I agree Peters is good as gone, and I think thats the right thing to do.
What I don't get is why do some hip hop artists have to use the N word in their songs? Always seemed strange to me even going back to the NWA days. I've been to karaoke before where a white girl went up on stage and did a rap song with a bunch N bombs in it. Was super weird and awkward to me.
Even now at work this week, people keep repeating verbatim what Peters said to Aliu when discussing this story. They dont say n-word, or n-bomb but the actual word. So weird to me. Like just dont say it, in any context.
Why cant that word just go away? We don't call indigenous 'Indians' anymore even though that was accepted back in my day.
Anyways, its a taboo word for me and I dont understand why its still a relevant word today. Not trying to derail the thread by any means, just my 2 cents.
