Fat Joe recently made an appearance on Bootleg Kev and DJ Hed’s show at 92.3 The Real in Los Angeles, and spoke on the n-word along with the term “Afro-Latino.”
The rapper spoke on people who call him out for using the word, saying “My thing is, when you say, 'You're Latino, why are you using the n-word?' Are you calling me a racist? Do you think I'm racist for using it? 'Cause the way the n-word offends me is when somebody says it in a racial way. We feel like somebody's trying to call us n***a…so now you lookin' at me with racist eyes when I do is for my culture, for my people? I treat black people and Latinos the same way. Hundred percent. No difference, no preference. I treat 'em all the same way." He then went on to say some people “just want to look at things with a racist eye, a racist view.” Watch above.
