"If the artist don't like some people say it, they shouldn't put in there."

I think I've heard the response to this from creators, the idea is that it isn't made for you. They create media informed by black experiences and tailored for black audiences. They don't feel like they should have to change that to accommodate white/non-black audiences, and not doing so shouldn't be a free pass for people to turn bigoted language back at them.

Take what you will from that, and consider that I cited a vague "they" with no clear reference or origin. I'm going off shoddy memory, and as a non-black person.
