Post J. Lo and the "N" word

Hello ladies. I'm always interested in your thoughts so I thought I'd find out what you think of this. If you've heard J.Lo's new remix to "I'm real" you'll notice her use of the "N" word...something to the effect of "n****s sweat me." On Hot 97, Starr suggested that black people write her record company to let them know they are not pleased with her use of the word. I'm torn. On the one hand, she is not black, so imagine if you heard Christina Aguilera or Justin Timberlake talking about "my n****s. On the other hand, we do it so flippantly, how long did we think it would take for people who are comfortable with us and our culture to start doing it. But all in all, I think she was wrong for it, she could have just as easily said "spics", but she wouldn't have dared.
