Who was the first singer to use nygga on a song?

[Yinny]

Inspired by my shuffle going from Have you seen her to a Jacquees song “let a nygga inside” I need to delete from my shuffle.


Who started it and when? I can’t find anything on the net.

The earliest I can remember is Donnell Jones on U Know What’s Up in 99 with “Me and my nyggas be rolling”

Pos rep for a reasonable answer!

"I'm your mother, I'm your daddy, I'm that nika in the alley" also probably the 1st trap anthem.

The earliest recorded songs with blacks saying it were 1910's and 1920's. Ive heard it used in numerous early black blues-folk songs. As far as R&B/soul goes, it was sometime in the 1960s and 1970's.
