[quoteI usually never tweet questions but I struggle with this so here goes... Is the word bytch acceptable?][/quote]

To be more specific, is it acceptable for a man to call a woman a bytch even if it's endearing?

Even typing it in question form it's still feels harsh?

Has hip hop conditioned us to accept this word? Do we love this word as much as we love the word nikka in an endearing way?



correction, Here's the age old question, would we refer to our mothers as bytches? Would' we call our fathers ******s or better yet nikkaS?


If nikka is such a positive word, why do we feel so uncomfortable for white people to say it, even with a hall pass?

[quoteIs it ok to use bytch as long as we put BAD in front of it? Like you a BAD bytch][/quote]

Perhaps the words bytch and nikka are now neither positive or negative. They are just potent and it depends on how the are used and by whom?

quote: Excuse my French but I'm in France...]

What if there was no profanity... What if we decided to legalise profanity in a sense? In France they play songs with cursing on the radio

I was recently questioned about the use of the word bytch in my music and initially was offended by anyone questioning anything in my music

Stevie Wonder never had to use the word bytch to get his point across

I will admit that I sometimes go back an omit cursing from my records. I like to use profanity as a tool and not a crutch.

I'm not tweeting to say what we need and what we don't... I just wanted to think out loud with you guys today...
