He looks like an african american who sat in a tub of bleach to me
I gets offended wen other pple who arent black use the word nigga..its supposd to be used by full black pple..
ERICK – YOU ARE NOT EVEN BLACK
–
ON TOP OF THAT
FAT JOE HAS BLACK IN HIM
HIS PUERTO RICAN
THATS THE REASON WHY HE SAYS NIGGA
Wasnt the ‘N’ word suppose to be used to discriminate you guys back in the day?? why does it seem to be ok nw?????
So since I’m light skin black with Fat Joe’s skin tone and I’m a direct decent of a half black woman I can not say “nigga”? I’m black but I’m light explain this to me
@ loc dsk
who says you couldn’t say that word?
It shouldn’t be used by anyone!!! Pls explain why a darker person is allowed to use it just because of its skin colour?? So stupid explanation… it’s even more stupid used as a black person to each other… think about it!
The logic behind using the word so much, is to take the power away from the word, I heard the word so much, it doesn’t bother me at all Black guys tend to use it as a form of comradery . These days, everyone calls themselves the N-word. I’ve even heard teenage Asian girls calling themselves the N-word. My white friend Mark said it sometimes, but we never did anything to him, although Mark thought he was more black than we were.. I visited his home one time, walked into his room and looked around, and left his house feeling I wasn’t black enough. Most of the time, being called the N-word doesn’t really bother black people(at least in my experience). They just use it as an excuse to kick white peoples A$$
hes cute.
your so phat !
In one of his album covers, Fat Joe does say he is part Cuban in his thank you’s.
