Seems reasonable. Called it out, let her keep rapping if she changed her behavior.
I agree with Kendrick. If you want to rap along and you are not black, DON'T say the N-word. You skip over it.
Props to Kendrick for his reaction and how he handled it. He educated and explained to the lady what to do.
I think the best way to avoid this would be for everyone, black people included, to stop using that word, especially in music.
Because yeah, when you sing along to a song you like, you don't always think about the lyrics and just say them in rythm. So the issue will happen over and over again.

Nah, we good. Just don't say it if you're not black.I think the best way to avoid this would be for everyone, black people included, to stop using that word, especially in music.
Who said this was a big deal? Relax a bit, my guyIf she apologised and recognizes why she shouldn't say it then I don't understand why this should be a big deal
Yeah. Seems like it was partly done for him to make his point on this. Seems like things turned out well though.Come on, he knew exactly what he was doing when he got someone white on stage. He knew this was gonna happen lol
Looks like it was probably all set up. Just saw this at the top of Reddit's /r/Music:

Why invite her up to rap that song then? If it's a lyric in the song then she probably assumed she was expected to rap along with him and say it. It's hard not to feel like she was baited. And if so that's not right.
You got a lot of responses to this post already but I want you to know that even if rappers stopped using the word in their music white people will continue to say the word anyway. The word existed and was used long before rap music became popular and mainstream and it will be continued to be used afterwardsI think the best way to avoid this would be for everyone, black people included, to stop using that word, especially in music.

Or kids can be educated about history.Of course. But kids, of any color, will repeat over and over again what they hear. If they are used to ear that word all the time by artists they like, they will use it. Wether they know what it means or not. And it can be hard to lose this kind of habit once you grow older.
So if nobody was using it, the risk would be smaller. I guess it would lose the strength of it's meaning over time but... I don't know.
I still think it would be better if artists restrained themselves on using that word in their songs. That is all.
Yeah. Despite being popular, it even has a layout that gives it that look.Yeah it's best to entirely avoid the daily mail. It's a shit rag full of complete bollocks
How anyone can agree with kendrick is ridiculous. He was the only one being racist. They're lyrics from the song.
It's really very easy to not use that word. And lol at the "but he tricked her!" sentiment. Maybe he didn't want to assume that a random white fan is a piece of shit.
Exactly
Oh please.It's really very easy to not use that word. And lol at the "but he tricked her!" sentiment. Maybe he didn't want to assume that a random white fan is a piece of shit.
