I have been doing some tracks with this MC... he's a great guy, good values pretty much all around... only he likes to use this epithet "FAG" in his songs. To him, its just a word. I pretty much spelled out, to me "no racism, no sexism, no homophobia" is sort of a credo. You wouldn't use the N-word (he's a white MC I should clarify) so don't diss my gay friends with your semantics.
Of course, this presented no problems. He knew I wasn't censoring him, just saying that i didn't want to work together on any tracks that I found ethically or philosophically inexcusable.
My friend, the engineer on the sessions, explained to me that we are in the "post-PC era". Granted, most everyone seems to be younger than me these days... but, did I miss the dawning of a new era?
