nigga means he is somebody. You might say fuck that nigga but don't take that nigga lightly.
white people haven't had a great history with the word and it's hard to tell how they mean it so don't use it. plus there is no way one can understand without being black. you can't rub it off or change your clothes its not a fad for a black person its skin.

"the n word" this word is used freely between black people. the former term nigger was used during slavery. now a days it means friend, or brotha. if a white person would say it to a black person (if they wern't close and there are some exceptions) then they would get there ass kicked.
in example.
black person: wud up nigga
Black person(2): wud up my nigga
another
white person: wud up nigga
black person: 2 busy beatin the white guys ass. lmao
black person: wud up nigga
Black person(2): wud up my nigga
another
white person: wud up nigga
black person: 2 busy beatin the white guys ass. lmao
