ORANGEBURG, SC (WIS) - If people found radio host Don Imus' comments about the Rutger's women's basketball team offensive, why are people at South Carolina State University lining up to hear similar words from rap artists?
In one song from a performer at Friday's concert, the n-word is used more than 100 times.
WIS asked students at on campus about the concert and the lyrics. One student, Kendra Johnson, says, "The radio host was out of line when he said it. Some rap artists may be out of line, but they don't mean no harm."
Student Justin Miller says, "There's always a time and place for everything. With hip hop music that's a certain situation where those remarks can be used, but on public radio station pointed to a particular group it's not proper."
One of the performers at the concert was Crime Mob. Their video, "Rock Yo Hips" is set on a fictional campus, Crime Mob university. That's where they depict women as strippers saying, "After she dance on that pole, I pull my cash so quick and fast."
Rap concert in SC used "N" word over 100 times...Where's the outrage and who should be fired?
I'm sorry, what is the "N word"?
How am I going to explain that kind of crap to my kid, yes Johnny, this is America and you can say anything you want, but don't say the feared N word.
