When did blacks as a group stop referring to each other as brother or sister ?

I'm 30 and growing up I remember alot of my older relatives and other blacks refer to each other as brother or sister. I mean people were still using the term nikka as a term of endearment but people were still calling each other brother or sister as well. If you listen to a lot of Hiphop and R&b records from the early 2000's you still hear Rappers and R&b singers use the term brother or sister

. But now other maybe older black people I dont hear too many black people use the term brother or sister when talking to or about another black person.

Quiet as kept, some black people literally CANT refer to their fellow black man & woman as "brutha" or "sistah" because that requires a positive and loving energy.



For these types , "N1gga" is the preferred word to call other black people:mjpls:
