T.I. thinks the outrage over Joe Rogan using the n-word is fake.
“N*ggas don’t really care, for real,” he told Donell Rawlings. “I ain’t gon’ lie to you, like, you can call the community of Black people’ n*ggas’ as long as you send them a check.
“You know what I’m sayin’? Muthaf*ckas will sell — they’ll sell a little bit of they ego. Little bit for sale. They might not wanna do it in front of everybody but nobody really give a f*ck like that, for real.”
Rogan apologized for using the racial slur.
“I know that to most people, there’s no context where a White person is ever allowed to say that, never mind publicly on a podcast, and I agree with that,” he said. “Now, I haven’t said it in years,” Rogan added.
Rogan also apologized for comparing a Black neighborhood to a Planet of the Apes movie. “I certainly would never want to offend someone for entertainment with something as stupid as racism,” he said.
