I love how the majority of you seem to be thinking he's taking the piss with this cover.... Don't any of you -GET- artistic license? Jay obviously loves this song, but for him to burst out into a hiphop/rap track in the middle of his acoustic set would hardly be appropriate so he's interpreted the song in a way that allows him to include it in his show. You haven't got to like it, but don't be so plain ignorant that you think he's trying to make a joke out of it.

Get the fuck over it. He wasn't being racist when he said nigger. Half of you motherfuckers don't even know what true prejudice is. Regardless, if he said kike you wouldn't hear a Jewish person going nuts. They would ignore it knowing regardless of intention, a word don't mean shit. AND THEY DEALT WITH SLAVERY FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS! They're over it because they aren't slaves anymore, as should all African-Americans.

[olledencoole]

[FuckingDoug]

@JimmyEG1 i find niggers funny

[TheJazzyjeff333]

JAY..... YOU SHOULD BE MAKING MILLIONS.....  GO PRO!!!! Always will love who you "really" are. However; your talent is too much for anyone to disregard. Damn, your voice is fucking amazing dude!

[TaylerxRae]

Wow, there is so much drama in these comments!!

I'm really not sure why everyone is taking so much offense to this video. It's like "O-mi-GOSH, a white guy said the 'N-word'!!! OMGWTF?!"

It's a word. He wasn't calling anyone that. Regardless, in the song it's not even used to demean blacks.

Nobody has a problem with it when it's NWA's version. And why? Because they're all black.

Yeah, and he's the racist one for saying it...*

*Sarcasm.

[StevexOwnz]

I hate how every good song being killed by an Acoustic version

no offense.

[JimmyEG1]

I'm guessing only white people find this funny cuz idnt think it's funny
