AKA debates the k-word on Sway In The Morning

When rapper AKA made his much-anticipated appearance on popular US hip-hop show Sway In The Morning on Wednesday, the last thing he probably expected was to defend his use of the term n**ger in his music.

When it was noted that there was a similar word used back home, the rapper seemed to shrug it off saying: "We have a different past and a different situation."

But the debate didn't die there. It soon continued when a caller to the show voiced disapproval of AKA’s use of the word n**ger in his lyrics.

“I just have a problem with him (AKA) using the word n**ger in order to sell his music and not the word K (k-word), which means the same thing in his country,” the caller said.
