My Thoughts On Aespa Giselle Mouthing The N-word And Her Apology For It

Hey guys its your girl, and today I'm back with a whole new topic. 

So today's topic is basically just going be, me expressing my thoughts and opinions on the whole situation with Aespa's Giselle saying/ mouthing the n-word.

  So first things first before we bet into today's topic I would just like to put out a few guidelines for this topic. So the guidelines are as follows, 

• Please refrain from coping my work
• The purpose of this post is not to hate on the artist mentioned in this article but to bring awareness to the fact that they did something wrong, so please don't send hate to anyone
• Please be respectful to everyone in the comments please 
• 🚫 ABSOLUTELY NO TOXIC AESPA FANS IN THE COMMENTS🚫

 

Just a disclosure I know with this topic that black people are the only ones who would have a say in this and like I stated before this is just my opinions on it as a whole and in case you were wondering yes I am black ... I will be allowing the non-black people in the comments also view their opinions on this topic ..but don't say its just a word because it isn't. 

So miss Giselle of Aespa, decided on mouthing , the n-word on camera, while listening to SZA Love Galore.... (I'm not gonna go deep into this topic right now in this post because it seems to be a really repetitive and reoccurring situation in k-pop now... But later on I may consider  making this a like a kind of like a series but I'm not certain yet)

Its really surprising how Giselle doing this is really hard to believe when she's the only member in Aespa who's extremely fluent in English..managed to "slip up " and mouth a racial slur.. I'm not sure if she's well aware that she has fans that are of colour and that that term that she mouthed is a derogatory term that's supposedly used against them, and her being fluent in English as mentioned above, and knowingly mouthing this term, just doesn't add up..

 Probably by this point, some of you may be probably saying why are black people incorporating the n-word in their songs if they don't want non-black people saying it. Well to be completely honest I don't know why they place that word in their songs. Maybe it might be a sign of them taking back a word that was once used against them to be  used amongst themselves.. Because for example a black man could call another black man his n-word and they'll be okay with it , which is understandable because they are using it amongst themselves which would in turn be deemed as acceptable but to say if a non-black person like a Caucasian person for example calls a black man his n-word it would be deemed as unacceptable because I guess of the how it was used during times of slavery and is a racist slur..... In other cases it could be that the non-black person may say the word without any kind of knowledge behind the word which is understandable in my opinion, because they said it without mal- intent but they should be educated on it right away so that they don't make that mistake again.

Down Below I'll Be Putting The Video (I don't own this video, credits go to the owner of the video)

So now were onto her apology  for this incident. In her apology she said 

really and truly this is just my opinion but u honestly don't feel like she was 100% honest with saying that she never meant to say the word... But in the video while she was lip syncing to the song that was being playing in the background she knew exactly when that line "skrrt, skrrt on n*ggas " was going to come up and she came further up into the camera frame and mouthed the word with confidence. But if you looked at Karina and Ning Ning when they realized what line was going to come next they stopped lip syncing to the song.

 And to back up my reason for saying that Giselle knew what she was doing, on a episode of knowing bros Giselle sang Doja Cat's song titled "Tia Tamera" which also featured Rico Nasty.

This song also has the n-word in it but Giselle changed it to suit the fact that she absolutely cannot say that word

These are the lyrics to Tia Tamera

" Verse 2: Rico Nasty]

They said, "Rico, you so nasty," I said, "Thank you very much" (Yeah)

He just wanna eat me like some candy, but I'm not his buttercup

These hoes swear that they can't stand me

But ain't never pullin' up (Um)

I just made a hundred K in two weeks

Lil' bitch, do you need me to pull it up? (Duh)

Big black trucks and we pullin' up (Bitch)

She drank so much, now she throwin' it up

But we don't give a fuck, we still rollin' it up

I got a lot of money, but a lot ain't enough

Park where I want, they ain't towin' us (Bitch)

I-I make the jokes, you ain't trollin' us (Bitch)

My neck is on ice, you ain't cold as us

And when we hop out, yeah, you know it's us

My-my chopper sing like Sia (Sia)

Make a bitch sick, diarrhea (Ew)

Dressed in all black, grim reaper (Bitch)

Don't act like you can't see us (Yeah)

Ride-ridin' in a foreign, no Prius

He keep callin' my phone, Nokia

So I put the nigga on speaker

If you got a problem, better speak up"

This is Giselle singing Tia Tamera

So to say that she didn't know what she was doing was wrong is being purely ignorant.... And yea that's just my opinion at this point... Guys please feel free to let me know how you guys feel about this topic in the comments below.

 

Like I said I am going to be allowing my non-black readers to express their opinions in the comments down below but please keep in mind that this is a very serious topic and must not be taken as a joke.
