That's not exactly how it happened. He asked Jonathan if he minded white kids using it in songs that they sampled or free-styled from other black artists, 50 cent was the one he mentioned specifically.
And good on Jonathan for being decent and straight about it. Surely, in order for it to be considered racist, it's the intention and meaning behind the use of the word?
Anyway, I usually avoid posting in these threads about racism, and who is or is not racist, but I thought it was important to at least ensure you are reporting what Spiral said correctly.
