Yall know I love the song but it's NOT only white people & non-US-citizens who are complaining about her usage of the N-word.
I was going through black media blogs (Like NecoleBitchie, etc.) & saw A LOT of comments like this:

You don’t get it do you? Nicki has always been very sexua we aren’t talking about that. We are speaking about her overuse of the N word and no one seems to have a problem with. But let someone white use it and all hell breaks lose. Do you understand why white people think it’s ok to use the word now? This is black history month! Which made this song even worse. Go back and study slavery or look at what they did to Emmit Teal I promise you You will never use the N word again. There is nothing positive about it!!

As a black person myself, I felt uncomfortable listening to that amount of n bombs. How the heck does the N word NOT take away from everything?
And specifically what bars did she spit? All I heard was n___.

im just extremely offended that she chose a photo of Malcolm X as her cover art when Malcolm X was adamently against using the word “*****”.

I'm not saying my white ass necessarily agrees with all these comments, but it's interesting seeing people's view points on it. Most people on Twitter like the song however.
