"Rock N Roll Nigger" is a rock song written by Patti Smith and Lenny Kaye, and released on the Patti Smith Group's 1978 album Easter. Outside of society, that's where I want to be. I mean, like, I don't understand the question. Beyond her use of the "n" word, "Rock N Roll Nigger," which followed on from the poetry recitation "Babelogue" on Easter, was a frantic rock song in which Smith took an explicitly defiant stance: "Outside of society, that's where I want to be."

For example, critic Dave Marsh said, writing in Rolling Stone magazine, "Smith doesn't understand the word's connotation, which is not outlawry but a particular kind of subjugation and humiliation that's antithetical to her motives." Smith came out of a poetic tradition that deliberately looked to decadent subject matter and used debased language as a means of transcendence, but the "n" word may be the most difficult term in the English language to re-contextualize. The song has since been covered by several artists, including Marilyn Manson, and a remix was included on the soundtrack of the 1994 film Natural Born Killers.

I never read anything where anybody talked about my sense of humor. Nevertheless, on her third album, 1978's Easter, she tried: "nigger no invented for color," she wrote elliptically and ungrammatically in the album's liner notes, "it was MADE FOR THE PLAGUE the word (art) must be redefined-all mutants and the new babes born sans eyebrow and tonsil-outside logic-beyond mathematics poli-tricks baptism and motion sickness-any man who extends beyond the classic form is a nigger-one sans fear and despair-one who rises like rimbaud beating hard gold rythumn [sic] outta soft solid shit...."
