Rubi Rose lands in hot water for being OK with non-Blacks using N-word sans ‘malicious intent’

Rubi Rose recently appeared on Adrian Ross’ Twitch where she mistook the host as a light-skinned Black man and ended up with controversial remarks

Rubi Rose got herself in a little trouble after she said during an interview that she was ok with non-Black people using the N-word if it was not meant in a "negative way." The female emcee recently appeared on Adrian Ross’ Twitch channel where she mistook the host for a light-skinned Black man.
 
Rubi Rose during the interview made the allegations as she thought Ross was Black due to his curly hair. Ross soon clarified that he was White but asked if it meant he could use the N-word. The Kentucky native then shared her opinion and gave the N-word passes saying, “I’m personally OK with anybody saying it.” This comes after Roddy Ricch faced heat for encouraging the mostly White crowd at the Wireless festival in London to sing along with the lyrics to his hit single ‘The Box’ which comes with several N-words.

‘I’m personally OK with anybody saying it’

During her appearance on Adrian Ross’ Twitch channel, Rubi Rose stated: “I’m personally OK with anybody saying it, as long at their intent isn’t to be rude because I’m sure, Adin, you love Black people. You have a lot of Black people on your channel, you love Black music, probably.”
 
The rapper continued: “So, as long as the person isn’t saying it with malicious intent, personally, ’cause I have like Mexican homegirls and white homegirls who be saying it, I don’t care about other people. We’re friends and they are cool with it.” Rubi Rose got caught up in the controversy earlier this year when she admitted to throwing gang signs as she felt they were cute and not because she belonged to any of the gangs. “I'm not actually a gang member”, said Rubi adding, “I know that's kind of like a joke on the internet. I was around gang members and I just like throwing their gang signs up because it's cute. I love the color red. I'm in no way a gang member, though." 

‘She ain’t no ambassador of Black things’

Social media users brutally slammed Rubi Rose after her latest remarks on the N-word.

“#RubiRose just need to go bury her face inside #jackharlowfacts after that comment she said about the N word”, said one user as another posted, “Rubi Rose really said Adin lightskin because he got curly hair. Why the baddest bi**hes gotta be the dumbest bi**hes.”
 
Another person tweeted, “Rubi rose cool but she ain’t no ambassador of Black things lmao. Just cuz she said it’s coo to say the N word does not MEAN ITS GOODDD.” Whereas, one said, “She’s not a black person, so the n word doesn’t affect her.”

Another stated, “Damn, Rubi Rose bout to ruin her black fan base saying stuff like that. I'm sure she'll still make her bag elsewhere but the N word is too sensitive to be playing like that in Hip Hop.”

And, one concluded, “Of course Rubi Rose lightskin bird as** would say anyone can say the n word.”
