Nigga is slang for Nigger. Nigger is slang for Negro. Negro is an abreviation of the word Negroid which is the scientific classification for people of black descent. How much more can you hack a words origin into unrecognisable bullshit? I give it twenty more years before people have to start taking classes to understand the ignorant jibberish the average "negroid" spits out.
"That guy has very dark skin. He must be in the Negroid catagory."
"The fuck you just call me Nigga?!"
"No its not Nigga, its Negroid. Its the scientific classifica......Ow! I've been shot!"

Get the nigga mug.
An alternate spelling and phonetic synonym of the word Negus which is an Ethiopian word meaning KING. Nigga is often incorrectly associated with the word (nigger) which is a derogatory term used by non blacks meaning ignorant or coward. Because of this association, the term Nigga has been viewed by many as a derogatory term also.
It seems like everyone wants to be a nigga nowadays.

It can be simply thought of as a tremendously stupid way of saying nigger People who think that they're clever by saying "nigga" are obviously the opposite. Black kids who call each other this name are idiots, so are white kids, and so is anyone else who says it out of its proper context, period. Self-respecting black people don't go around calling each other "nigga." It's only the dumbass MTV crowd who ignore its malignant roots and think it's something amusing to say; employing it constantly. Bigots shouldn't be so butthurt that it's offensive to say it either because no matter what, it's a rude thing to say. Stop being such morons.
Moron #1: I'm a dumbass black kid and I like saying nigga all the time due to my lack of an extensive vocabulary!

Moron #2: I'm a dumbass non-black wannabe kid and I like saying nigga all the time due to my lack of a vocabulary too!

Moron #3: I'm a whiny bigot and I can't comprehend why I shouldn't be saying nigga! I feel so oppressed!

Get the nigga mug.
A slang word that is ignorant to African ancestors which includes African-Americans. It does not boost image of black people in any form or manner despite the intention. It is self damaging.

It's also asking to be seen as victims regardless that their equity to date is equal in the social and business world. The word may be causing negative consequences in same cases.
Black person with friends: "Just hanging with my niggas"
Friend(s): "Why do you constantly need to degrade our ethnicity and ancestors? Does it make you feel "hard"?"

Get the Nigga mug.
A word many African Americans (including myself) have differing opinions about:

1.A slang word meaning friend or another person.

2.A new version of a degrating term that means an ignorant black person. Used over a hundred years ago by slave owners and still carries a lot of hostility.

Although it is hypocritical for blacks and some hispanics to say it and not let whites do the same, it has always confused me as to why whites want to so badly.
I am sick of seeing sentences that depict stereotypical black people saying nigga and white people getting mad.

Get the nigga mug.
A term used freely by black people, since it is socially acceptable for racial minorities to be racists. It keeps people of some race apprehensive, when in company of people other than their race. Also used for low class people to regress to earlier time, as an excuse to hate, other races than their own.
White guy, "Why do you say nigga so much Mostafa, you are from Somalia?"
Black guy, "Step off nigga, my bros going to buss a cap in yo ass!"
