it's a word that can be used in bad ways and good but most use it in good or neutral they mean no harm by saying. Usally you wontget beat up for saying nigga unless you mean it offensively, or mean. Even though i'm white i only say it when i'm around my boys and which most of them are black or mixed. Other wise it's just slag for brotha or cuz...but best not for white people to say. Because it's a sign of respect.
reffering to black people, derives from the term nigger, which was used by slave massa's in the 40's and 50's and early 60's, otherwise known as the, "whippin days"
In the song, "Whip It" by Devo, there is a big hint into the, "Whipping Days" as in where white people would whip the Africans until they picked more cotton, and more watermelon, and ate more KFC.
"NIGGA!!!!!"
"Hello nigga."
"'ey yo nigga, me 'n Jaspa' gon' go and pick up some crazy African hoes"
"Whaddup Nigga"
Nigga: "Tonight at 8:30, 'gonna grab some shovels and bash white folk in da head."
Nigga 2: "What time?"
Nigga: "8:30"
Nigga 2: "Do What?"
Nigga: "Gon' kill white folk!"
