might be actually nigger. korea, and a lot of asia is surprisingly racist. i mean, some of it cant be "malicous" like it is here is the west.

you know how here, when someone gets a tattoo in chinese, it might say "donkey dick"? if you go to somewhere like japan, you can flip on a tv show, and see christian choir songs sung over christmas decorations of santa, like, the cultural specifics just dont seem to cross over exactly like the culture itself does, if that makes sense.

It isn't nigger. There was one where they unmistakeably said nigger and meant nigger, but the other songs all have a word that isn't nigger, but similar.

내가- (Nae ga) I am

너가/니가- (Nuh ga/Nee ga) You are

Or maybe they're emulating rap music. You never know.

This gets confused a lot in the West. There was a point when G Dragon was getting a lot of hate because they thought he was racist. They didn't understand he was actually referring/singing about himself. It's good that you asked though. It's fun to learn a foreign language, especially when being exposed to it through music. It can be a fun and entertaining part of learning.

Dated a Chinese girl for a while. IIRC she said it was similar to saying "um" or "that" - example usage when you're looking for the right word to say - "I noticed that umm umm umm...". It would then sound like she was saying "nigga nigga nigga"

I'm kind of disappointed. I liked it more when I thought they were all saying nigger.

We can always pretend they're saying it
