Ngajuana – Don’t Dismiss the Name
Ngajuana has a controversial name. When I first heard this cat on the Internet, I wasn’t quite sure how to pronounce his name. When I learned how to, I was a bit uncomfortable calling him by his rap moniker simply because it starts off with the n-word and ends with the last two syllables of…
