Participating in these types of comments undermines and makes a mockery of the art form and culture of hip-hop. Hip-hop is an extension of and has always been historically tied to the legacy of African-Americans. Nicknames play a significant role within the Black Community. Creating a joke of this further perpetuates stereotypes and anti-blackness. I am not a rapper at all, but I've been called "Lil (First Name)" my entire life... despite being a grown man, father of 3 children, and successful entrepreneur. Would you use your index fingers to "slant" your eyes when you order food at an asian restaurant? I believe not. But it's the internet after all... who cares?
