XXLmag.com asked Machine Gun Kelly about usage of the N word and whether or not it'd ever come out of his mouth. The question was asked specifically in reference to V-Nasty, a white female rapper who is affiliated with Kreayshawn, who does use the word and has defended her use of it.

"It's a wrap on me using that word," he said. "Not where I'm from. F*** that. I love my hood stripes. I wear my hood stripes proud. I don't want them taken from me. Only N word I’m using is ninja. Ninjas and ... napalm... and nasal spray... and narcissist... nipples. Those are the only N words I’m using. Nipple is my favorite N word."

"Good question," he continued. "That's a very good question. That's a constroversial question. That's such a sketchy question. I feel odd even saying the word, 'the N word,' on camera. 'Cause it's so f****** touchy. That's crazy. F*** that. I mean, my daughter's black, too. My whole team, with the exception of my manager, or one of my managers, is black. It's a subject you just kinda grow up and respect. I wouldn't really touch it. You know, I can joke all I want to. I wouldn't touch that s***, though.”
