Whether words should have power or if they do are two different things. That word absolutely has power. Point blank do not use that word ever. I'm glad people on here know that I'm not cool with letting non-black people use that word. That is exactly how I want everyone to look at me. Also you'd be naïve or just don't care if you think this is the only time he has used this word around his friends. Drunk or not.
Also nowhere have I called for him to be taken off the radio or the CMA's. If I'm the CMA's though, I'm probably gonna tell him thanks but we are good without you performing this year. Your actions have consequences and this seems to be a fair one IMO.
Majority of black people are not ok with white people using the N word. You can pull out your anecdotal evidence but by and large black people are not cool with it. They'll go about their day but they'll never respect or trust you after that.
His album sales booming does not surprise me in the least. I mean we are talking about country music loving white people. This is right up their alley.
