    This video is offensive. They used Papyrus font.

        No, you can’t clarify, or no, it wasn’t satire?

      They were oblivious to the derogatory use of the word ni**ah. They have a church in a mostly black community where the churchgoing youth was dwindling so they made a rap video to address the local youth in a way they thought was fitting and hoped that young people would attend the sermons more. The local community enjoyed it because the couple didn’t do it bad spirited. They profusely apologized for using the n-word, and explained what they were hoping to achieve.

        Seems to be considered a parody/hoax

        I am not American, so maybe that is why I never understood why words that are so terrible they should be never said, should be used inflationarily in mass media, but will end your public life if you make for example a cover version of the wrong popular song while being born with the false colour of skin.
