Following the media fire storm caused by Jackie Magazine's piece referring to Rihanna as The Ultimate Niggabitch [click here if you missed that], Jackie editor Eva Hoeke has stepped down from her position as EIC...
Eva writes,
"Because of the enormous pressure from social media, I can promise improvement in terms of language used in future issues of Jackie.
Previously, I offered rectification. As I now come to the conclusion that rectification is not the right solution, I am departing.
"The term 'nigga bitch" has come over from America and we have only this to describe this particular style of clothes that we can try to interpret.
"After eight years, with my heart and soul, I have worked for Jackie. I realize that these errors - although no malicious intent - is a reason to leave."
Each one teach one.

bullsht. she knew exactly what it meant.and i have NEVER heard of that term, lying whore. white ppl dnt give a fuck about u black people. best believe while theyre smiling in ur face, theyre calling you a n*gger behind ur back.
Good you should have known better - nomatter what people call themselves this was just to unprofession for and editor not to know what should or shouldn't go to print. Nomatter what people call themselves and what words they use - this was just not tolerable from a professional person (editor) of an artical and use that word -regardless - take one out - one at a time.
I like RiRi, but gurl stop calling yourself a nigga-bitch!
When are we as BLACK prople going to finally realize that, no matter how much money you have, your'e ALWAYS be BLACK first. In these countries, with all the negative press that we recieve, this is the only reality that they see. So my advise is to try to do something positive with your money at HOME, all they see is color, money green and us as NI**ERS.

Cosign
Even though I'm not a Rihanna fan, I can honestly say that this was beyond disrespectful and racist. But, I'm not surprised in the least. It doesn't matter how far we think we've advanced in terms of social and political realms, "they" still regard "us" as less-than. There's no way in hell this bitch is telling the truth. I've NEVER heard this term. The fact that she seriously put this in an article should show "us" that slavery is still very apparent, not only in America, but in the world. They will forever regard "us" as second-class citizens.
"The term 'nigga bitch" has come over from America and we have only this to describe this particular style of clothes that we can try to interpret."
Lady, you are fool to resign. Why? Rihanna is STILL going to be a nigga bitch.
As long as you keep referring to yourself as such, that's how people will see you and address you.
Why does Rihanna look like an albino Eskimo in that pic O.o photoshop gone wrong!!
She did the right thing, that was bad judgement on her part, but then again ALWAYS get fired to get severance pay! Dummy!
This bitch is LYING! I've never heard a rapper or any damn body use the phrase or refer to somebody as a "nigga bitch" that sounds like some misinterpreted bs she made up her damn self. Stupid CRACKA bitch!!!
It's a sad, sad, day when a "self professed" black woman looks whiter and more bleached out than the white woman responsible for approving some racist, yellow journalism...
How the hell do you "interpret" someones attire/ensembles as N-word bitch? This honkey is a got damn LIAR!! Who she think she foolin' with this BS? And then she used the word AGAIN in her shitty resignation letter. Pasty faced bitch! Bottom line her pale ass is a RACIST!!!
Even tho I have a problem with what Eva Hoeke said because she is suppose to know how to handle herself in her profession. Me on the other hand really don't give give a shit. I feel like so many people in the world, you call a spade a spade. When Chris put his foot in her ass some people went crazy saying he had no right to put his hands on her even if she was wrong. I say if you correct a mofo up front there will be no problem in the end.
For the road to riches and diamond rings
We shine because they hate us, floss cause they degrade us
We trying to buy back our 40 acres
And for that paper, look how low we a'stoop
Even if you in a Benz, you still a nigga in a coupe
@10:00 lawd jeebus. what fucked up flip-hop song did you jack those atrocious lyrics from? I can only guess it HAS to be some retarded southern rapper?
Everybody with good sense knows that if you are not black--there is always hell to pay for using the "n" word.
We all know that Rihanna is a trashy, disrespectful, drunk, and the poorest role model for young girls other than Lady Gaga. She should not be referring to herself as a "nigga bitch" and then get upset when an ignorant, racist, cracker comes out and calls her one. The magazine editor should have known not to take it to that level. I would have tried to make the article discuss the fact that why black people even use this type of language to describe themselves. Both parties are DEAD WRONG, POINT BLANK, PERIOD!!!!! (HOLDIN2MYJOY)
So, is the AUTHOR of the piece resigning as well?
She knew what time it was. What you have in your heart, will come out of your mouth. I expect more of the same from these people.
wait did she mean Bitch Nigga?
You're an idiot. You can be the most well behaved black person on Earth and white people will still call you a nigger! We aren't the problem! They are!
People kill me with the "wanting to do better as Black people and pulling together to stand strong"! the comments made on Rhianna alone show that as a people we are always gonna be divided. it does not matter if you like her or what you think about her, NO BODY outside the black race has the right to call ANY black person a NIGGA BITCH! and to give it a pass by saying "well she act like one" is a BITCH ASS UNCLE TOM move on your part. its just not acceptable period!
Now, once we get that part down, then we can stop saying shit like that to each other!
She fucked with da wrong Navy lol.. anyway
Exactly this shit came directly from the mouths of Americans, directly from the mouths of coonish ass niggas dancing and selling their respect for a dollar. If you as a culture, as a people don't demand more from yourself how can you ask that of others. Black Americans this is the message the WORLD has about us. Change it!
If they just would have put the ultimate bitch it wouldn't be too bad
Oh please! No Black Americans are involved in this story! So how the hell does all of the responsibility of this fiasco fall on us? You Caribbean people are going to have to learn that you can't have it both ways.
You can't hate yourselves AND hate Black Americans but expect us to ride for you. Maybe you all should develop some UNITY between all of the Caribbean islands. That way yall self-hating, bleach up asses won't come running to Black Americans to solve your fucked up shit!
11:45
what are you talking about? if you read Rhianna's responce you would know that she did not need any black americans to come to her defense, cause she put that racist bitch in her place already! these are just our thoughts on it.
11:55. Then you need to redirect your comment to 11:38. That person seems a bit confused about Rhianna "not needing any black americans to come to her defense." Again, stop involving us in matters that have nothing to do with us!
@10:06
If I'm not mistaken the lyrics are from a Kanye West song.....but I could be wrong.
Listen the media that America puts out continues to enforce the idea that blacks are stupid, criminals who are on welfare. We as people know this is not true but when our brown faces are on tv promoting and reinforcing this same shit it is only giving the stereotypes images to go along with these lies. Be the change you want to see in the world. This woman is an ignorant ass and she deserves to lose her job but she is a drop in the bucket. The change has to come from the bottom up. #truth
@12:00. Word? I'm a hip-hop head but since it died somewhere around 2002 A.C. I don't know what this blathering bullshit is about. Kanye, Wayne, JZ... they're all the some person in my book. But that shit was wack! 40 acres? really? smdh
same person
I sent the editor a twitter message yesterday and hash tagged it w/ #YOURMAMASANIGGABITCH...truth.
Goddessnow
But what if her mother is a kike? or a cavebitch? How come you didn't tweet THAT?
Rihanna looks special, crazy and bleached out in that pic!! Smh!
Lol @11:06, i think so! She's a moron!!! "Nigga bitch" doesn't even make sense!!
@10:06 AM
it's Kanye, stupid.
10:06 and 12:04 - I can only assume from the commentary that you are the same person. Despite what you may think of the lyrical content it rings true. I am an educated, professional black woman who was called a ni**a while in a benz coupe. It's very degrading and you won't know how it feels until it's done to you! Also, if you know your history freed slaves were promised 40 acres and mule [which we never got]and here you have these 'coons' running around buying the most expensive things to prove what?! Back to Rihanna - not a fan but definitely disagree with the article
1:34 You wasted a whole lot of money on your education! And since you've let us know that you are a professional (as if that matters HERE) my question to you is:
A PROFESSIONAL WHAT?
The editor's resignation was appropriate. However, whites are not the only people who are disrespectfult towards blacks.
The fact that blacks call each other "nigger or nigga" speaks volumes to their lack of respect forone another. This fact causes me far more concern that an ignorant white person. The fact that blacks talk this smack to one another and have stupidly tried to turn the term "nigger" into a term of endearment is mind blowing!
Until blacks start respecting each other, no one will ever respect blacks. We call each other things far worse than whites ever will dare verbelize toward blacks. Go to a white gossip site, and see if whites are talking trash to each other in the same harsh and demeaning manner that blacks tend to.
It's been the same story over the years. The only time we as a people got respect was when we demanded it in the 60's . When we became Pro-Black and exclaimed that "Black Is Beautiful" then folk took notice.
Also, stop recording these low life rap songs dissing our beautiful women. So sick of that stuff. You broke negroes rapping about stuff you don't own anyway.
Then find a way to get educated. Don't only log on the Internet to read these bogs but wiki and learnvsomethingeven if you can't apply it to your life right now.
REMEMBER YOUR POWER BLACK PEOPLE. YOU MADE IT THROUGH SLAVERY AD JIM CROW. YOU ARE ABLE TO DO AND BE WAT BLACKS COULD ONLY DREAM OF FORTY YEARSVAGO.N
@1:06 nigger, nigga, or any of it forms is NOT synonymous w/ black ppl. only crakkkas and dumb ass blacks think so. she could be a kike & a nigga (so on & so forth). but, im sure the thought of being called a nigga never even crossed her lily white mind until her mammie got called one. i know she was like, "who me?" yeaaaah you NIGGA BITCH yo mammie too.
As long as black people widely use the term nigga then we can expect other races to use the term as well.
Just for the record 2:12 PM whites , Asian, Blacks, Latinos and others uses the N word on wach other. We live in the time of hip hop. This is a whole new generation. Most of the things we were taught was disrespectable or just wrong , are OK now. It's kinda like women wearing short dresses. A long time ago our parents and grand parents frown on it now it is ok it's fashionable and looks good. So with RiRi showning pussy on stage to the world is ok with her I don't think it's a problem for others, regarless of race, to see her as that Nigga Bitch. If she feel she is not that then she need to change and project a different image. That's her problem not ours.
@3:15 As if she would care that someone called her mother the n-word. That editor probably first heard the word FROM her mother.
Anyway, you kikes, spic, gooks, are funny. You think WE don't know you are posing here on RWS?
I like the cavebitch tweet better anyway. But that's just me!
Sorry, that should have read kikes, spicS and gooks
au contraire mon frere. in whitey’s mind, being a nigger is the worst thing possible. she can be a kike or a cavebitch (which i like as well), but it’s still better than being a nigga. she would rather be that wet dog smelling, mayonnaise eating, grunting ass cavebitch than anything ranging from obama to tyrone biggums. u know why? cuz they niggas.
btw, i’ve called a true cracker (not that wanna be type) a nigger b4, so I know from experience that shock and disgust displayed on their dumbass face. try it u’ll see :)
all in all, that slut deserves any insult hurdled at her bitch ass.
Now why would I insult myself just to make some white person feel bad? That's just silly. Besides, white people secretly like to be called the n-word. Why give them the satisfaction? Because we all know that they have a longing and deep seated desire to be Black anyway. The hell if I'm going to make their day by paying them a compliment.
I'll just stick with kike, cracker, honkey, white devil, wop guinea, recessive mutant, monkeysplice, cavebitch, cavebastard... etc, etc...
why would that be insult to you? b/c nigger would actually be u or black ppl in general? now, that's silly. smh
and how is it a compliment? cuz black ppl are niggers and black is beautiful??...backwards ass thinking
superbadd, quit playing. you're not even a white girl, you are a gay, white male... probably a jew, as in a kike. You can fool the other posters but I'm peeping your cadence...IT'S ALL OFF!
Guess you need to go back and listen to some more of your wigger rap albums and congregate with your sellout, non-white friends...
oh my bad... a gay, white FAGGOT!
2nd correction... a gay, white, kike faggot
if i were, would your thinking/argument be less flawed?
@3:35 PM Why would she need to change her image? This white woman called her the N word because of how she dresses? That's like blaming a rape victim because she had a mini dress on. That woman was wrong and the fact that so many young people blacks and others use the N word in a ''good way'' is sad. Talk about a lost generation
The word shouldn't have been used, but this bitch is Dutch, saw black people cooning around calling each other this word, and probably thought "Maybe they changed it." Race is America's hangup, not the world's. And she didn't even write the article. All we know for sure is she's ignorant, and at least she has the decency to go away.
Rihanna's part in this is she doesn't know what race she is. In America you cannot be a black slut and get respect. You can be a white one, and they'll call you "Sex Symbol". Marilyn Monroe, Madonna, etc. But if you're black, they'll watch you make a spectacle of yourself, and then send you on your way. If you're black, you have to be more protective of your image because you're being held to a different standard. They will always look for verification of the bad things they already thought about you from the moment you showed up with that skin. Rihanna is ultimately a nightmare for respectable black people because she exists seemingly for the purpose or reinforcing those views instead of doing one damn thing to contradict them.
Without going on a tangent about who's is callin whom the N word. Can anyone tell me if they EVER heard the term N**** B**** used to describe a style of clothing in America?
Because I sure in the f haven't! And I mean that is dumb, do some research because I'm from Cali, been on the East, down South and in the Mid West and never, ever, have heard that ish...
Mrs. Moody
7:43 PM got I just about right ;-)
@Mrs. Moody- Well, that's because it's a BS copout- they didn't even bother to try to make it sound logical. At this point they should just be real and say, "I said it because I FELT like it, monkeys!!!"
I really hate dat word.... I'm black n ion say it maself. I find it very disrespectful and rude. Dis chick is white? Somebody need ta jump her ass.....
