I don't want nothing to do with that because that's ridiculous. I feel like anything they do now is just to cover it up and make it look better.

It's hard to ridicule somebody for something that you continue to use in your music, every (hip-hop) artist is using the n-word in their music -- hit records with the n-word in it. You can't be upset when somebody says it. You can't. It's hard to differentiate when you can use it. If we don't want the word used and the word holds such a negative connotation, then we shouldn't use it at all, period.

But if it's somebody that you've been rocking with or we're listening to music or whatever, I can't be upset, it's humanly impossible for you to be upset at a different race saying it when you're saying it in your music. That's crazy to me.

These fraternities are places that us as hip-hop artists, we come and do amazing shows for these fraternities, like I just did Texas Tech, I just did Texas AM, Delta Chi, Sigma Chi, and those guys were great. And I've done a show actually at Oklahoma last year, so to see that that chapter feels that type of way toward the black race, it hurts, man. It sucks.

It's a rock and a hard place. I can't be as upset at that lady. I'm upset at the fraternity because what they're saying is a chant that's just completely disrespectful to the black race. As far as that lady goes -- man, that's an old lady, man. Let that lady be. it's hard to ridicule somebody for something that you continue to use in your music.
