CNN Host Says Rappers Won’t Stop Using The N Word Because They Will Lose Sales & Street Cred

Ben Ferguson discusses the ‘N-Word,’ suggesting to hip hop’s Trinidad that using the term in his songs has a negative influence on those who look up to him.

Don Lemon discussed the ‘N-Word’ with Trinidad James, Ben Ferguson(CNN Host) & Marc Lamont Hill. Ferguson feels like no one should be using the ‘N-Word’ and stated, ” I think many rappers are afraid they will lose out on money and sales and street cred if they don’t stop using the word.” Trinidad addressed that statement and an older white woman using the ‘N-Word’ while singing along to “All Gold.” He stated, “It’s hard to ridicule somebody for something that you continue to use in your music.”
