Why do artists use the n word if they get offended by it?

Likely, you mean rap and hip hop artists, so the reason why is because, most of them are black themselves. Being used by blacks carries a different meaning than if used by whites.

Though not all will take kindly to the word being used by anyone at all, some understand that when used from another black person, it is more on a level of understanding and flipping its meaning than on a level of trying to make them feel less than human, which the latter is often the meaning when used by someone white.
