White guys saying the N word and being gangsta. There is nothing ever cool about a white guy pretending to be ghetto. Yes I'll include Eminem and I don't care if he's been given the pass.

I agree on the n word part, but do you expect white guys raised in/by disadvantaged black communities to pretend to be a person they're not just because of the color of their skin?

OP must be joking. Living one of the largest cities in the US/World for two decades, skin color has nothing to do with being “gansta”.
