I think hip hop does play a role in why “nigga” has gone beyond beaten black people tho. But ultimately it’s the culture of these communities. And it’s not just in NY

That being said im not sold on Fat Joe being Afro Latino. I mean he might have some black cousins but that’s about it

i mean obviously he's not

Right lmao and they both say nigga

Some people have said his family is Afro Latino from Cuba but I haven’t seen him post a relative that looks even half lol

Look at Emanny, he’s also Rican. Don’t think there has been any pushback about him saying nigga.

my opinion is... fat joe been saying nigga since before i was born and he's not going to stop saying it.

should he say it? hell no.

do i care that he says it? nah not really and i won't be the one policing him on this.

the social contract regarding this is that some people get a pass and some people don't. and the reasons why are vast and complex at times. my opinion on getting a pass is that no ones gets a pass unless you're partially black or look black. i don't really care that you grew up around black folks.

yeah keep checking whenever you can. eother there will be a drop or there is a resale ticket, which is not bad since they can't sell it more than 10% of face value on ticketmaster

I know Joe gotta be eating good on patreon rn this ep has all his Reddit subs and this thread in a war zone more active than ever on this debate

For sure it’s prob the number one reason it’s so widespread. Would make sense if we were discussing why Fat Joe does say it vs why people believe he “can” say it.

I need to see what Fat Joe looks like with an undercut and a white man beard because he doesn't look white to me

he's what people in the spanish caribbean call "jabao": light skinned with visibly african facial features like the lips, nose, brow, etc.

What makes Mona black appearance-wise?

oof, he has that good ol southern boy face

Their money conversations/glazefests on patreon sound homoerotic as f***

Ish: "imagine joe, you up 500 million, the world is your oyster. You HIM! You get to a point where you can walk up to that old white nigga in a suit and tell him "ayo suck my d***, my name is Joseph anthony budden, and this is my s***", what's your next goal after that aki?"

They don't talk about the useless rich people who were born into that s*** and never had to work hard

Couldn’t imagine paying for that

Now that Marc clips the best stuff I’ve kinda slowed down on even watching the main eps

That would imply every rich person isnt inherently valuable and talented which Ish does not believe

Joe doesn't pass for black. Idk why this is even an extended discussion

He’s fully white brother

Pods like today where they just f***ing yell the whole time are so trash.

Bojangles network

Discourse for Fat Joe has come full circle. Niggas too afraid to check white Latinos, and now I’m seeing FBA adjacent niggas say It’s the Africans & Caribbeans fault for letting Spanish people say nigga
