Teka$hi 69 doesn't have a ton of lyrics in his songs. But he still manages to rap the word "nigga" more than your average spitter.
That may strike some as odd, given Teka$hi (Daniel Hernandez) is Mexican and Puerto Rican, not black.
Pittsburgh rapper Jimmy Wopo doesn't want to hate, but count him among those that find 69's impressive rate of n-bombs interesting.

69 grew up in Bushwick, Brooklyn, amid both blacks and Latinos, and is said to be backed by Bloods, a predominately African American street gang.
Is his use of "nigga" out of pocket or is he just a product of his environment and changing norms on the word?
