The process through which new expressions resulting from the bastardization of the (English) language in the hands of the guetto crowd (typically rap/hip-hop "artists" and/or their wannabes, and black criminals, as depicted by Hollywood TV and movies). These expressions often enter the vernacular as a joke but, out of sheer repetition, they often end up being incorporated to the language and crowding out the original, proper expressions.
Notice that niggerization tends to take place so quickly, that competing neologisms may coexist for some time (perhaps until one of them "busts a cap" into the other, linguistically speaking). See example below:

The multi-platinum selling hip-hop act the Black Eyed Peas, responsible for lyrics such as:
"Imma be on the next level
Imma be rockin over that bass treble
Imma be chillin with my mutha mutha crew
Imma be makin all them deals you wanna do (hah)
Imma be up in that maylist flicks
Doin 100 flips, and imma be
Sippin on drinks cause
Imma be shakin my hips
You gon be lickin your lips
Imma be takin them pics" (*)
are amongst the most active agents of niggerization of the English language.
(*) 'Imma' is a neologism resulting from the niggerization of the expression 'I am going to'. But notice how 'gon', a contraction of 'gone', is also a niggerized version of 'am/are/is going to', which neatly illustrates coexistence between niggerized expressions (and, in this case, within a single paragraph).
