DJ Khaled hit up Invasion Radio on Sirius speaking on why he can use the N’ word. He claims that he is a product of his environment and that the N’ word is positive and endearing term… Take a Listen: “I’m a n—a. If somebody ever took that in an arrogant – if someone thinks it in another way, they dumb.I grew up like that. It’s slang. It’s actually a positive word the way that I use it, the way that Ace [Hood] is using it. If you think like that, that goes back to the internet. The hate.

Once again, I’d like to shout out the fans who love this music. What makes me mad, ’cause when I grew up, n—as was calling me sand n—a. Now, that’s ignorant, because there’s only one way to say it. You can’t say, ‘Yo what up my sand n—a?’ That’s not the way we grew up in the streets. When I say ‘What up my n—a,’ I say that to Green Lantern all the time. ‘What up my nig?’ That’s just me greeting you with love, but if somebody takes it another way, they dumb, man.

Just a Note: This interview is about 3 years old…
