When Paul McCartney was featured on Kanye’s song “All Day” last year, the masses were surprised that Sir Paul would join a record where Kanye says the ‘N’ word about 40 times. Well now he defends Kanye’s over use of the word and is actually pleased with it in the song.

During an interview with Radio 4’s Mastertapes, McCartney revealed his defense:
“People like Oprah, who’s a little conservative about that stuff, said, ‘You shouldn’t do it, even black people shouldn’t use that word.’ I said, ‘Yeah, but it’s Kanye! And he’s talking about an urban generation that uses that word in a completely different way.’ It’s the context. So I was actually pleased with it.”
No problem for McCartney as many would think otherwise…although it would have been cool to see him win a Grammy for a rap song lol.
