Oh, it's the original lyrics to the song he sampled in his mixtape, Drake's I'm Still Fly. Other than in this song I haven't heard him use it, so I guess at least he doesn't use it lightly.
I can see why, I'll tweet to him about it soon and hope that he sees since he does read his mentions. It's possible he doesn't know the effect it has on other people. :) I was just saying that he didn't write the lyrics to the chorus himself.
Well, I will admit that I'm not an avid listener of Drake so I don't really know any of his songs. It just kinda sucks that some of my favorite kpop bands end up using the word or just saying insensitive things without realizing the impact.
But thank you for clarifying it for me. I'm not trying to turn this into race wank, so I'll just end it here.
I agree, and that's why we have to try and reach them through mediums such as SNS to make them understand the implications of things they pick up from other cultures. I just wouldn't want for people to simply identify Zico as the boy who said the N-word and turn away from the group as a whole because of it (I'm not saying that this was what you were doing, just in general). While it's true that he did do so in his pre-debut track it seems to be done out of ignorance, and hopefully he could still be educated about it. The cultural norms in Asia can be so strikingly different from that of the West (I'm from the Philippines and would say we're on the same boat as Korea when it comes to a lot of different matters regarding PC) that people make these mistakes on a daily basis and no one even notices it.
I completely understand where you were coming from and in no way think you're spinning it into wank or sth similar.
I think it is from CB that Kikwang got the dance from (Take You Down). :) It's just that Kikwang did it... far too many times to count alrdy so ppl usually think of him when it's mentioned.
The dance practice starts at arnd 5:25 of the 2nd video.
