(AllHipHop Rumors) Gina Rodriguez has a relatively extensive history with “The Blacks.” I admit I block out a lot of racist BS I encounter so I don’t retain such negative energy. But she lingers! The actress is under fire for saying the N-Word in her IG live in a song by The Fugees.
The Jane the Virgin star was rapping the Lauryn Hill part of “Ready or Not” as she got her hair done, but the part she put on IG got people p##### off. AND I SEE WHY! She raps “Voodoo, I could do what you do, believe me…N##### give me heebie-jeebies.” Now, he omitted the word “frontin'” which normally appears in the song, only to say “NI##AS GIVE ME HEEBIE JEEBIES…” She was definitely making a statement right there!
Look for yourself and you tell me!

Now, if you have been accused of being anti-Black, wouldn’t you want to chill on using the N-Word in public and laughing about it? I think so! Wouldn’t you want to respect that group if you have any sort of respect for them, after said charges? Folks like Fat Joe have had similar accusations, but he is also deeply entrenched in our culture. And he’s bigger than me. LOL!
Anyway, Gina has issued an apology.
“I just wanted to reach out and apologize. I am sorry if I offended anyone by singing along to the Fugees. to a song that I love, I grew up on. I love Lauryn Hill,” she said in another video. I still maintain she knew what she was doing.
This is the most condescending “apology” ever.
