Default Re: A few thoughts on "racism"...

Because Latin music is a whole different genre and sub genre of music. Latin Rap, Rock, Pop, Country etc. The majority of American listeners wont understand the music so they get their own award show.

This might be a bad example but I see it like only giving out an MVP to the greatest athlete in 5 major sports (Soccer, Baseball, Football, Basketball, and Hockey) rather than each having their own awards.


And Micky, in my experience with Black people there IS a difference between Nigga and the N word. I get ****in called nigga everyday by black dudes and they use it towards each other as well. I've witnessed a bunch of times when -er has been used and they have been offended but nigga doesnt have the same affect. At least around these parts. You're in New York right? They use it just like I use dude *shrug*
