Calling the language in the best rap-tracks 'Niggrish' isn't meant to show any traces of current racism, but rather uses the old, dead racism-language to describe my fascination with the new, neutral language.

In brief, 'Niggrish' is 'English delivered so that you don't understand it on first hearing it.' An example that springs to my mind is "Informer": as far as I remember, it went, "Informer: yaknosirdaddimeSnowisnottoblame, Alickeeboomboomdown ..."

Maybe I went and learned the "real English" lyrics from somewhere, and you can surely find them somewhere on the Internet today; but those aren't what made the song hot! What did make it hot was the fact that--hearing the song--you knew it meant something, but you weren't sure what.

The reason I thought of that here is that I will occasionally approve add-requests from rap artists (like this one), and then turn around and deny the next one I hear. The reason: approved rappers use Niggrish.

The denied ones do not use Niggrish, and--sounding just like the approved rappers (except for the Niggrish)--sound more like 'impatient Lit.-majors' (I should know, I was one) than hard-pressed thugs.
